Samsung is one of the greatest semiconductor chip producing firms on the planet. Nonetheless, it falls behind TSMC (Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company) as far as creation limit and innovation. In view of the continuous chip deficiency, the South Korean firm said it is wanting to significantly increase its creation limit by 2026.
On Thursday, Samsung Foundry said it would work somewhere around another chip creation plant and extend the creation limit at existing plants. This move will allow the organization a superior opportunity to contend with market pioneer TSMC and novice Intel Foundry Services.
Samsung chief Han Seung-hoon said, “We intend to extend our ability multiple times by 2026 to address clients’ issues however much as could be expected by growing limit in Pyeongtaek just as considering setting up another plant in the US” during the organization’s profit declaration. Nonetheless, the organization has never uncovered its real chip creation limit regarding progressed hubs like 5nm and 7nm, so it is difficult to get what “multiple times” really implies.
The South Korean organization has been in converses with US specialists to extend its plant in Austin, Texas, and set up an extra chip fabricating plant in either New York, Arizona, or Texas. Notwithstanding, it hasn’t uncovered its last site and plans at this point. The organization has plans to contribute more than $150 billion to turn into the world’s greatest semiconductor chip firm.
Samsung Foundry presently makes chips for different customers, including high-profile ones like IBM, Nvidia, and Qualcomm. The organization as of late reported that it has begun the large scale manufacturing of 4nm chips, and its 3nm chips will be accessible in the second 50% of 2022.
