Taiwan -based semiconductor giant TSMC, the groundbreaking 2nm (N2) starts to receive orders for the production process at the beginning of April. The company, until the end of 2025 50,000 chip plate (wafer) is reportedly aimed at reaching its production capacity. While the technology giants, especially Apple, are in line, this development is expected to strengthen the position of TSMC in the sector further.

Apple takes the lead in the 2nm race

The 2nm production process carried out at TSMC’s facilities in Kaohsiung and Baoshan in Taiwan is expected with great curiosity in the semiconductor world. According to Chinese -based sources, a production expansion ceremony will be held in Kaohsiung on March 31 and its first production party will reach Baoshan at the end of April.

On the other hand, as for a while, Apple is expected to be the first customers to benefit from this new production process. It is stated that the company plans to produce the A20 processor, which it designed specifically for the iPhone 18 series, which it plans to launch in the second half of 2026, by using this advanced technology.

In addition to Apple, big players such as AMD, Intel, Broadcom and AWS are also interested in the TSMC’s 2nm process. These new generation chips, which will provide greater efficiency especially in artificial intelligence and high performance information processing, will further agglomerate competition.

The company aims to reach the production capacity of 50,000 chipsets per month until the end of 2025, and if the necessary conditions are met, this figure may be up to 80,000 units. Although the cost of each 2nm chip plate will be approximately $ 30,000, TSMC plans to commission the “Cybershuttle” service in April to provide a cost advantage to its customers. This service will allow customers to evaluate the chip designs on the same test plate and reduce unnecessary costs.
