When Samsung and TSMC laid out their next-generation manufacturing plans, the two chip companies decided to pursue very different goals. TSMC opted for a 20nm half-step node that would shrink…
…hardware is built at GlobalFoundries and which is built at TSMC. Because this information is of significant interest to investors and technology enthusiasts alike, details still tend to leak out around the…
…According to the story, Intel will specifically license the 6nm variant of TSMC's 7nm technology that the company announced last year. 6nm is expected to deliver a density improvement over 7nm…
…Betting and missing on EUV as a 7nm solution could cripple Samsung's foundry technology if TSMC and Intel bet on traditional scaling methods and see better results. What's rolling out…
…Samsung, however, made the decision to integrate EUV directly with its first-generation 7nm node, while TSMC decided to tackle that process in two steps. So far, TSMC seems to have made…
…Intel's future Meteor Lake will use Foveros technology to stack chiplets vertically, as opposed to side-by-side. The chips shown to Cnet lacked functioning processing circuitry, and were apparently just…
…that for its core GPU business, TSMC is its preferred partner, for now. However, Nvidia is a sprawling company with many interests and advanced technologies. It's going to need a lot…
…In short, with its 22nm Ivy Bridge parts, it now looks like Intel might have extended its technology lead to almost three years. It will be 2014 at the earliest before TSMC…
…The gist of the paper's argument is that the US tricked TSMC to invest in its Arizona fab. This would allow it to steal the most cutting-edge technology from "our…
…TSMC, and Samsung talk about a 10nm node, they are referring to different standards and metrics for evaluating that progress. Nodes, in general, now generally refer to a given set of technologies…
