Samsung intent on taking TSMC’s throne in 2025

Samsung says it will obtain technological leadership in the foundry space in 2025, when the 2nm node is introduced.

As dark clouds are gathering over the semiconductor industry, ASML has enough bright spots left to weather the storm.

Samsung Electronics says it will contribute 230 billion dollars to South Korea’s push to become the world’s largest chip-making base.

Samsung Foundry targets mass production of 2nm chips by 2025 and 1.4nm by 2027, the company revealed during an in-house event.

Concerns of a semiconductor downturn have eased somewhat now that TSMC has posted better-than-expected Q2 results and raised its full-year guidance.

Samsung has reportedly suspended orders for ICs and electronic components.

Samsung Electronics will commence high-volume production of 3nm chips soon, the company stated in a presentation of Q1 results.

Announcing its 2022 capital budget, TSMC threw a bucket of cold water on its rivals’ ambitions to gain market share.

Samsung Electronics plans to triple foundry production capacity by 2026, the company announced during the company’s Q3 earnings conference call.

Following the shipment of EUV-made DDR4 DRAM modules in March last year, Samsung has begun mass production of 14nm DDR5 devices.
