BEIJING, September 15 (TiPost)— Thanks to artificial intelligence (AI) frenzy, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. (TSMC), the world’s leading chip maker for other companies, offset some of headwinds in the current semiconductor down cycle.Credit：TiPost TSMC posted net revenue of NT$188.6...
The 40-nm process is considered a designer chip in manufacturing standards. In the last eight years, chipmakers have reduced their volume CMOS semiconductor fabrication manufacturing process from a longtime standard of 130 nanometers to the introduction of 90-nm chips in 2002 and the 65-nm techni...
HSINCHU, Taiwan Silicon foundry giant Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. Ltd. (TSMC) here today announced development of the industry's first "comprehensive" 0.13-micron test chip for mixed-signal and radio frequency (RF) functions.ARM Techcon...
The advance will enable chips with tinier transistors and wires than is now achievable, while accelerating time to market and boosting energy efficiency of the massive data centers that run 24/7 to drive the manufacturing process. "The chip industry is the foundation of nearly every oth...
At a very high level, chip companies use large silicon wafers to create multiple chips at once, and the wafer is then sliced into many individual processor dies. It's normal, especially early in the life of an all-new manufacturing process, for many of those dies to end up ...
Yet despite the increasing 7nm chip production demand, industry sources report that some 10nm orders from Apple and AI developers are still coming in this year. Even 12nm chips are still used for low-cost mobile devices. However, it's expected that the 10nm chip production to shrink from 19...
The result is a significantly reduced re-design time to port the chip to the new process. TSMC has a history of success with its unique half-node strategy. The company first began offering half-node processes at the 0.35-micron generation (with the half-step 0.30-micron), followed by ...
NVIDIA cuLitho brings accelerated computing to computational lithography, enabling the semiconductor industry to accelerate the design and manufacturing of next-generation chips. “The chip industry is the foundation of nearly every other industry in the world,” says Huang, founder and CEO of NVIDIA....
