TSMC, which officially transitioned to the 3nm production process that will allow the most advanced chips this week in Taiwan and started to establish a new facility in Arizona, thinks that the new process will create great value.1.5 trillion dollar market
The 3nm manufacturing process offers 60% more membrane area than the 5nm process and 35% more energy efficiency at the same clock frequency. However, it charges customers 2 times more.
While Apple was the first and biggest customer of the 3nm process, giants such as Nvidia and Qualcomm were also in line. In the next 5 years, many designers such as AMD, MediaTek, UNISOC will have switched to the 3nm process.
TSMC officials estimate that the chips produced with the 3nm process will give life to final products with a market value of 1.5 trillion dollars. These include numerous devices such as computers, smartphones, tablets, wearables, servers. However, it was discussed that there may be a delay for the transition to the 2nm process. In other words, the 3nm process can continue its effect longer than expected.
