Super Micro Computer (SMCI) Is Likely To Disclose Its Annual Report Today After Hindenburg’s Short Attack In August Prompted An Internal Review

Super Micro Computer (NASDAQ: SMCI), a retailer of high-performance servers and liquid-cooled AI racks, set the proverbial tongues wagging back in August when it delayed the disclosure of its requisite annual report just a day after a high-profile attack from the prolific short-seller Hindenburg Research. Now, after exhausting a statutory facility that allows for a 15-day extension, the company has to file its delayed annual report for its FY 2024 by today. For the benefit of those who might not be aware, Hindenburg Research leveled three primary allegations against Super Micro Computer: SMCI sales team allegedly stuffs its distribution channel […]

TSMC Says That Construction Of Its 2nm Facility In Kaohsiung Was Unaffected By The Typhoon Gaemi, The Strongest To Have Struck Taiwan In 8...

A cutting-edge 2nm fabrication plant is currently under construction as TSMC intends to starts mass production of wafers on this advanced technology for a number of clients, with the most notable likely being Apple. Unfortunately, a tragedy struck Taiwan in the form of the Typhoon Gaemi, causing massive economic losses to the region. Fortunately, the world’s largest semiconductor manufacturer claims that the tropical storm did not damage its 2nm facility, which is located in Kaohsiung. The other 2nm plant located in another region also seems to be unaffected, with TSMC stating that production resumed normally While the Typhoon Gaemi has […]

Samsung Secures Its First 2nm Customer, A Japanese AI Firm That Decided To “Ditch” TSMC

Samsung Foundry has announced that they have secured a 2nm order from a Japanese firm, snatching away TSMC's well-established customer. Samsung's 2nm Process Is a Testament To the Commitment They Have Towards The Semiconductor Division The Korean giant disclosed the development in a press release, which isn't ordinary because 2nm is still a process that hasn't made it into mainstream markets. Samsung securing a client shows that not only is the company's 2nm node sufficient for market adoption, but Samsung is looking to close the gap with the Taiwan semiconductor giant TSMC. With the 2nm, the competition does look to […]

Samsung Rumored To Have Kicked Off 2nm Chip Development Codenamed ‘Thetis,’ Company May Use It For An Exynos SoC First

The Exynos 2500 could be Samsung’s first 3nm GAA smartphone chipset that enters the mass production phase in the fourth quarter of this year, but the Korean giant is not stopping here because it has grand plans concerning its foundry business. A new rumor claims that the company has started developing its 2nm technology, with the intention of applying it to a future Exynos release. Just like its 3nm GAA variations, Samsung could introduce different versions of its 2nm process With Apple COO Jeff Williams recently reported to have visited Taiwan in a bid to secure the first 2nm wafer […]

Apple COO Jeff Willians Reportedly Visited Taiwan To Discuss Reserving First Batch Of TSMC’s 2nm Wafers, Potentially Adding $18.6 Billion To The Foundry’s Revenue

TSMC and Apple have formed a tightly-knit partnership and have worked closely to secure deals that give the iPhone maker an edge over the competition. Recently, Apple’s Chief Operating Officer Jeff Williams reportedly visited Taiwan to extend the company’s lead against its rivals in the semiconductor race by securing the first batch of TSMC’s 2nm wafers. Assuming both parties come to an agreement, and chances are that they will, it could potentially add billions to TSMC’s revenue this year alone. Apple successfully securing the first 2nm batch from TSMC means the latter can add $31.03 billion in revenue overtime It […]

iPhone 17 To Reportedly Miss Out On TSMC’s Cutting-Edge 2nm Process, A19 Pro To Likely Use More Advanced 3nm Node

Apple currently leverages TSMC’s 3nm process for several of its chipsets, and the company may stick to this manufacturing process for a few iPhone generations. According to the latest report, the iPhone 17 will not be the first lineup to sport an A-series SoC fabricated on the ultra-advanced 2nm node. This will mean that the A19 Pro that is expected in 2025 will retain the 3nm lithography, but it will not be the same technology, as you will soon find out. Apple expected to use TSMC’s 3nm ‘N3P’ process for the A19 Pro, which will likely be found in the […]

Samsung’s Cutting-Edge 2nm Process Could Just Be The Korean Giant’s Second-Generation 3nm Node With A Changed Name

Samsung has been reported on a few occasions to be struggling with its 3nm GAA yields, and while the logical move might have been to find ways to improve that percentage, the Korean foundry is making a monumental leap towards mass producing its 2nm node. However, according to one update, the company is not actually pursuing the production of 2nm wafers but has labeled its second-generation 3nm technology with the same name. Naturally, this can cause confusion for Samsung’s clients and mislead them into thinking that they are receiving wafers on a cutting-edge manufacturing process. Samsung’s first 2nm order supplied […]

Samsung Introducing Backside Power Supply Technology To Its 2nm Process In 2025, Will Reduce Chip Area By 19%, Efficiency Improvements Inbound

Samsung may not have much success with its 3nm GAA process, but it intends to make amends with its next-generation 2nm technology, which is said to enter mass production next year. To gain an edge against its foundry rival TSMC, a new report states that the Korean giant is introducing Backside Power Supply (BSPDN) technology, which aims to offer several benefits, which we will discuss here. BSPDN technology was supposedly tested with two ARM cores, and Samsung managed to reduce the chip area of both by a varying degree It is going to be a competitive matchup between Samsung and TSMC as […]

Exynos Prototype Reportedly Being Tested On Samsung’s Cutting-Edge 2nm Process, As Company Looks To Maintain Dual-Chipset Launch Strategy

Samsung appears to have failed in its quest to secure large customers for its 3nm GAA process, with TSMC having the upper hand as it reportedly aims to reach production of its next-generation node to 100,000 monthly wafers by the end of 2024. To combat its biggest foundry rival, instead of finding a way to increase its 3nm yields. Samsung is apparently focusing on its 2nm technology, and according to the latest report, the next Exynos SoC is supposedly being tested on this lithography. After Qualcomm requested 2nm chip samples from TSMC and Samsung, an unnamed Exynos is said to […]

Samsung Reportedly Secures First 2nm Chip Order From Japanese Startup Who Decided To Forego TSMC

Samsung and TSMC have locked horns in the 2nm chip race, with both foundry giants earlier said to be preparing samples for Qualcomm on the next-generation lithography. However, when it comes to securing actual orders, the Korean giant obtains a win in that column by bringing a Japanese startup into the fold. It is said that this research firm decided to skip TSMC for its 2nm technology, and we have a few reasons why it would make this decision. Japanese startup PFN may serve as a bridge for Samsung to partner with bigger technology companies for 2nm chip orders Preferred Networks […]

Qualcomm Has Reportedly Requested Samsung, TSMC, For 2nm Chip Samples As It Aims To Adopt A Dual-Sourcing Strategy For Snapdragon 8 Gen 5

The Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 will exclusively be mass produced on TSMC’s second-generation 3nm process, but its successor, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5, might switch to a dual-foundry approach as Qualcomm reportedly looks to secure orders from both Samsung and its Taiwanese semiconductor rival. The San Diego chipset maker has apparently requested both companies to provide 2nm samples, which can be evaluated further. Prototype chipset development takes between 6 to 12 months, hence Qualcomm has reportedly ordered 2nm samples earlier Even though the company’s 2nm chipset launch is presumably a year away, Qualcomm reportedly wants a headstart as it aims […]
