In the advanced semiconductor process, the world is mainly TSMC, Samsung andIntelthe mass production process has arrived7nm、5nmand4nmNode, will enter next year3nmnode, and Japan, which had previously mastered advanced semiconductor technology, was not reconciled and planned to unite with the United States to2025Annual mass production2nmchip.
Not long ago, when a senior US government official visited Japan, he talked about the cooperation between the two sides in semiconductors, among which there are2nmThe research and development of the process, and now according to Japanese media reports, Japan has also formulated specific plans, plans to2025Annual mass production2nmchip.
But this2nmThe mass production plan does not have more detailed information,Which company is responsible for building factories and mass production2nmChips are still a mystery, Samsung, TSMC andIntelNo mention of mass production in Japan2nmCraft plan.
Of course, Japan cooperates with the United States to develop2nmThe goal of the process itself is to reduce dependence on TSMC, so the possibility of TSMC can also be ruled out.
For US-Japan cooperation2nmOne thing, TSMCCEOI have responded before and said I am not worried.
TSMC said that the characteristics of the semiconductor industry cannot be imitated no matter how much money is spent or how many people are used.TSMC20The technology is about 100% from the most advanced technology2generations, spent20This is the result of insisting on independent research and development.
TSMC will not take it lightly, R&D spending will continue to increase, TSMC3nmThe process will be quite advanced,2nmUnder development, looking for solutions.
