SAQP perhaps?
According to Digitimes report, Samsung is the largest purchaser of EUV tooling.Intel has done tons of EUV research and testing, and Intel is apparently the largest purchaser of EUV tooling.
I'm astonished this has happened again. ASTONISHED. Who could've possibly predicted.
Indeed, we can't deny that, but they are not fully using it!Intel has done tons of EUV research and testing, and Intel is apparently the largest purchaser of EUV tooling.
TSMC's processes are usually tailored for Mobile SoCs. How high could they clock this time?
I doubt that they developed 7nm HPC without a committed customer. I will guess the 7nm HPC process is for Qualcomm.
I missed that part. Thanks.Actually they have developed two libraries for 7nm.
"TSMC set another industry record by launching two separate 7nm FinFET tracks: one optimized for mobile applications, the other for high performance computing applications."

I doubt that they developed 7nm HPC without a committed customer. I will guess the 7nm HPC process is for Qualcomm. Pure speculation since they have a server processor design and they are still a fairly large TSMC customer at 7% of revenue in 2017.
How will a 14nm x86 processor stack up against an 7nm ARM processor?
For its part, TSMC presented an L1 cache compiler now available for its 7-nm process that can operate at data rates up to at least 4.4 GHz. Its 16-nm L1 memories topped out at about 3 GHz. The higher data rate is particularly useful for matching the speed of high-speed CPUs and mobile applications processors.
How bad would it be for logic?Samsung said it has processed close to 200,000 wafers with EUV lithography technology since 2014 and has recently seen visible improvement with EUV technology, such as achieving 80 percent yield for 256 Mb SRAM.
