Samsung allegedly found TSMC suppliers to improve production


Taiwanese media suggest Samsung executives met with TSMC suppliers to try to improve its production

Discuss the progress that SAMSUNG he would for an alleged Exynos 2400new rumors suggest that the South Korean giant would have held meetings with suppliers of TSMC extension try to improve the performance of the production processes themselves. If they get support from these vendors, the technologies would be applied in a new generation of the giant’s 4nm lithography, presumably called 4LPP or 4LPP+.




Collection of information from the Korean forum Meecothe informant murals suggests that Samsung is making positive progress in developing a third-generation 4nm manufacturing process, suggested by the leaker as 4LPP or 4LPP+. According to rumors, this lithography would be implemented in an alleged Exynos 2400, which could debut in 2024.

There are still few details on the platform, but apparently the solution would follow under the responsibility of Samsung LSI, the semiconductor division of the manufacturer that worked on previous generations of the processor. dials underlines how, in this scenario, the success (or failure) of the Exynos 2400 would remain in the hands of the brand’s chip manufacturing division, even after the promises of the development of a model dedicated 100% to the Galaxy S line.

However, what really draws attention in this rumor is a discussion around the possible meeting of the South Korean company’s executives with the group of suppliers of its biggest rival, the Taiwanese TSMC.

Today the largest and most advanced foundry in the world, TSMC has been at the center of geopolitical conflicts due to the dependence that the main technology companies of the semiconductor market have on the company, and has already managed to sign some contracts that were previously frequented by SAMSUNG, such as the Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1.

This meeting would have the intention of bringing the technologies used by the Taiwanese competitor to LSI’s factories, which has led some Asian island media to configure this process as “technology theft”. It is worth mentioning that there are obstacles in the translation that can misunderstand the idea: it is likely that these vehicles only reported the meeting, which was held in secret.

In any case, it is clear that Samsung is investing a fortune to improve its chip manufacturing capabilities, an important factor not only to put it back in the spotlight after the numerous criticisms of solutions such as the Exynos line, but also to prepare the giant to avoid another global, political, inventory or financial crisis to affect your offer.
