TAIPEI — MediaTek, the second-largest designer of mobile phone chips after Qualcomm, says it has chosen Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. (TSMC) to make 7nm products.
While it did not disclose a timeframe for the products, MediaTek said it is cooperating closely with its long-term fab partner at the new node.
"Low-power computing is the focus of TSMC and MediaTek," said Rick Tsai, the new co-CEO of MediaTek, during an investor event at the company headquarters in the Hsinchu Science Park. "We hope TSMC's leading-edge technology will help us create new business."
