So 7nm?

so nonexistant?

>full euv planned
So the first 5nm parts won't even be euv yet?
Also, please everybody realize that "production" doesn't mean "mass production"
Consumers won't be able to buy any 5nm chips any time soon, they are just for testing.
David Reyes
Where are you getting that? Their 5nm node is heavy EUV integration, up to 14 critical layers. The 7nm EUV moving into volume production now is up to 4.
5nm would be impossible without EUV unless you wanted to stick to single digit yields forever.

>any time soon
Cameron Bell
And risk production is not testing, so don't talk out of your ass. Test chips come months before risk. Risk production is for top paying customers who want first access to the node and are willing to pay despite low yields.

Hi
I work at a fairly large automobile and RF circuit manufacturer - why do our chips continue to have demand if TSMC or "competition" has faster and "better" chips?
Do automobile sensors really have that niche a market?
Do we have proprietary communication protocols I might not know about that makes our chips better than others?
Brayden Reyes
>Where are you getting that?
Bottom of OP's picture.
>5nm would be impossible without EUV
Yes, that's also what I thought which is why I found it odd.
Maybe they mean they plan to make every layer EUV but that doesn't make sense to me either.

You don't need the fastest or most power efficient chips in the automotive industry.
This is mainly about CPU's and GPU's to put in laptops, phones, etc.
And yes, many automotive chips are highly specialized so not just anyone can make them.
Do you work for NXP?
Angel Johnson
EMP resistant chips have demand

W-what!?

wtf i love china now

Intel's 10nm is more advanced than TSMC's 5nm.
