TSMC's 3-nm Push Faces Tool Struggles
By Alan Patterson, EETimes (April 25, 2023)
Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. (TSMC) is straining to meet demand from top customer Apple for 3-nm chips. The company’s tool and yield struggles have impeded the ramp to volume production with world-leading technology, according to analysts surveyed by EE Times.
TSMC and Samsung, its next largest rival in the foundry business, are racing to be first in 3-nm production for customers like Apple and Nvidia in high-performance computing (HPC) and smartphones. TSMC became the latest to claim 3-nm leadership in its quarterly results announcement last week.
