In recent years, Apple has made the decision to move away from x86 processors from partners like Intel, instead choosing to develop its own ARM-based processors for Macs and MacBooks, with production/fabrication handled by TSMC. Apple will reportedly be one of TSMC's first customers for its new 2nm process node, …

During the IEEE International Electron Devices Meeting (IEDM) Future of Logic session, TSMC announced that their 1.4nm manufacturing process is already under development. Additionally, they reiterated that mass manufacturing using their 2nm-class fabrication technology is scheduled to begin in 2025. According to a graphic shared by Dylan Patel (via Tom's …

Some juicy details have recently surfaced about AMD's upcoming Zen architectures, straight from the LinkedIn profile of one of their engineers. This content has since been removed, but as expected from the Internet, someone was fast enough to take a screenshot. According to the engineer's profile (via Wccftech), he was …

During its annual Foundry Forum event, Samsung gave us an update on what's coming out of its foundries in the future. For starters, Samsung is set to begin producing 3nm chips in the first half of 2022, with second-gen 3nm chips coming in 2023. Moreover, it also stated that mass-production of …

Just one day after Intel detailed its process node roadmap and naming changes, rival chip maker, TSMC, has received approval for its most advanced fabrication facility yet. Once set up, this facility will be used to build TSMC 2nm chips for various clients.  The Environmental Review Committee (via Nikkei Asia) …

IBM has announced a new breakthrough today, unveiling the world's first chip using 2nm nanosheet technology. The new 2nm design can bring several improvements, including big leaps in performance and efficiency.

TSMC is expected to start volume production of its 5nm process nodes later this year, and to follow that up with 3nm during 2022. Now the hunt for ever smaller node sizes continues as TSMC is reported to have started R&D for its 2nm process nodes. The reports come from …

Intel Corp. predicts that Moore’s law will last for at least another decade and the number of transistors per chip will keep doubling every two years. While there are challenges ahead, Intel’s engineers are going to solve them. Later this month Moore’s law will hit 50 years, an unprecedented date for the …

We do not know exactly when companies like Intel Corp., Samsung Electronics or Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. make their first chips using 7nm, 5nm, 3nm or 2nm process technologies. But we do know what should happen before leading semiconductor producers manufacture their new chips using ultra-thin process technologies: ASML should sell …
