TSMC is the largest manufacturer of semiconductors in the world, used not only in smartphones but also for cars and other goods. There chip crisis ha procurement of companies slowed down which, partly due to the slowness of production (compared to demand), partly due to the cost that has increased, are unable to keep up with requests. However, the Taiwanese giant promises that in 2022 it will be able to produce 3nm and 4nm processors. Let's go see the details.
TSMC promises that in 2022 it will be able to produce 3nm and 4nm processors: the largest telephone companies are already in line
Last year TSMC produced the processors a 5 nm which are currently used for high-end devices. Apple and HiSilicon, above all, have used these SoCs for their devices. But the more we move forward with the technology, the more power and autonomy of the processors is needed. for this reason companies smartphone manufacturers are starting to demand i wafer at 3 nm and 4 nm. In a recent meeting with analysts, TSMC confirmed its plans in the production of these chips.
5nm processors accounted for approximately 15% of TMSC's total revenue and this share is expected to rise to 20% by the end of the year. In general, the semiconductor market will rise 12% according to the estimates of the Taiwanese giant. According to what has been communicated by the company, next year will be that of processors a 3 nm and 4 nm.
As for those a 4 nm, much of the production, says TMSC, will depend on the equipment and materials used for the 5nm ones. This means that the construction will be pretty quick and that therefore the request can be satisfied in a short time. The situation is different for the a 3 nm which will use completely new processes which will lead to a power increase of about 15% with the same consumption.
