TSMC won’t make the most of ASML’s maximum complicated Prime NA EUV (top numerical aperture endmost ultraviolet) lithography system for its unedited A16 (1.6nm) procedure, a progress that contrasts with that of Intel, which not too long ago introduced the meeting of the business’s first business Prime NA EUV system. Intel has tied all of ASML’s Prime NA EUV system capability for this pace, resources stated. The Taiwanese chip producer is anticipated to worth its flow EUV apparatus for a number of extra years, as the cost of Prime NA EUV apparatus exceeds 300 million euros, consistent with TSMC’s vp of commercial building Zhang Xiaoqiang. Zhang claimed that TSMC’s present EUV machines can backup its chip manufacturing till the top of 2026, at which date the A16 procedure generation is anticipated to be accumulation produced.
