SANTA CLARA (California), April 25 — Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co said on Wednesday that a new chip manufacturing technology called “A16” will enter production in...

1MDB trial: MACC investigating officer says did not ask Najib over US$700m transfer to Jho Low’s firm Good Star TSMC , the world’s biggest contract manufacturer of advanced computing chips and a key supplier to Nvidia and Apple, announced the news at a conference in Santa Clara, California, where TSMC executives said that makers of AI chips will likely be the first adopters of the technology rather than a smartphone maker.

Analysts told Reuters that the technologies announced on Wednesday could call into question Intel’s claims in February that it will overtake TSMC in making the world’s fastest computing chips with a new technology Intel calls “14A.” Zhang said that TSMC does not believe it needs to use ASML’s new “High NA EUV” lithography tool machines to build the A16 chips. Intel last week revealed that it plans to be the first to use the machines, which can cost US$373 million each, to develop its 14A chip.

Analysts said the announcements called into question Intel’s claims that it will retake the world chipmaking crown.
