Unlike Intel, TSMC isn’t sold on ASML’s new chipmaking machines
While Intel is betting big on ASML’s latest High NA EUV chipmaking machines, Taiwanese semiconductor giant TSMC is considering opting out. Speaking at a conference in Amsterdam on Tuesday, TSMC’s Senior VP Kevin Zhang told reporters that ASML’s new equipment comes with too hefty a price tag. The Dutch chipmaker’s High NA EUV machines represent the next generation in extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography technology, which uses light to draw chip designs on the silicon wafer. According to ASML, these machines can manufacture chips that are both faster and more energy efficient. They reportedly cost about €350mn — compared to the…This story continues at The Next WebOr just read more coverage about: Intel
