[TSMC's advanced manufacturing process makes efforts and takes the lead in realizing 3nm mass production] TSMC's advanced manufacturing process is supported by major customers such as Qualcomm and NVIDIA. In addition, Intel expands the outsourcing of advanced manufacturing process. In the next few years, the market share of 5nm will be about 90%, while that of 3nm will be between 80% - 90%. It will "beat the invincible hand in the industry". According to the Taiwan media business times, Gokul Hariharan said that Qualcomm's flagship SOC chips in 2022 and 2023 will be OEM by TSMC, but the orders in 2024 are still being pulled between TSMC n3e and Samsung 3nm processes, and the two may eventually obtain some orders of different categories. For NVIDIA, since 2020, its orders have been distributed to TSMC and Samsung at the same time. The former won all AI chip orders and the latter won 8nm process E-sports GPU orders. Hariharan judged that in 2022, in addition to consolidating AI chip orders, TSMC will also obtain some high-end E-sports GPU orders and obtain more market share. In terms of Intel outsourcing, according to JPMorgan Chase, Intel may hand over FPGA chips and some GPUs to TSMC's 3nm process in 2023, and the peak demand is likely to be as high as 20000 chips / month, promoting it to the second largest customer of 3nm process in 2023.
[semi predicts that 60 12 inch plants will expand production in the next few years] at the semicon press conference held on Tuesday, Ajit manocha, President and CEO of semi, gave advance notice of the semi market forecast for 2022 to be released next week.
