Apple Might Launch Its Own Smart Home Camera As It Focuses On Providing A More Integrated Product Experience For Its Users

Apple is increasingly focusing on building its own devices and expanding its ecosystem by taking steps towards a more native experience for users and relying less on third-party accessories. While the Cupertino-based tech giant's HomePod and AppleTV have left quite the mark in the smart home category, it generally relies more on outsourcing cameras and other hardware for smart homes. Now, a new report suggests that the company intends to create a fully integrated experience by developing its own smart home accessories. Gurman hints about Apple working on making smart home products like security cameras for a more integrated experience […]

Google’s Tensor G5 Scheduled To Launch Next Year Is Said To Adopt TSMC’s Advanced InFO-POP Packaging, Alongside Its Cutting-Edge 3nm Process

The Tensor G4 was officially announced at Google’s Pixel 9 event, and the lack of performance or power-efficiency slides hinted that the chipset could be a minor upgrade over its predecessor, the Tensor G3. However, the company had different plans for its current-generation chipset, which will now materialize with the Tensor G5 in 2025 as the advertising giant will reportedly shift to TSMC’s second-generation 3nm process. However, a new report also states that the Tensor G5 will employ the Taiwanese semiconductor firm’s InFO-POP packaging, and if you want to learn what advantages this will bring to the table, read on […]

Intel Scales Up Outsourcing Efforts, 3nm Handed Over To TSMC & Adds In New Suppliers For Advanced Packaging

Intel looks to ramp up outsourcing efforts as the firm chooses TSMC for its mainstream semiconductor needs while adding new Taiwan suppliers as well. Intel Becomes More Reliant On Taiwan Suppliers As The Firm Apparently Shifts Away From Its Own Division Services Well, it looks like Team Blue has decided to take market competition seriously. That's why they have decided not to trust IFS for now and rather move towards "well-established" alternatives in the markets. Previously, we reported on how Intel's next-gen Falcon Shores AI accelerators will be handed over to TSMC for development, particularly utilizing the 3nm process, showing […]

TSMC Is Struggling To Attract The Top 1 Percent Talent For Its Arizona Fab As Its Wage Offers Presumably Lack The Oomph Factor

TSMC's struggles vis-a-vis its flagship American chip fabrication unit in Arizona are common knowledge by now, reinforced by a steady trickle of leaks and expert commentary over the past few months. Two factors purportedly lie at the heart of the Arizona fab's inability to takeoff: a difference in the American and Taiwanese work culture and TSMC's proclivity to skimp on wages. Today, the New York Times is out with a detailed commentary on TSMC's dilemma, highlighting among other things the frustration among American workers for strenuous work conditions and the management's attempts to rope in employees for tasks beyond their […]

Intel Evaluating Both TSMC & It’s Own 14A Foundry Process Nodes For Next-Gen Nova Lake CPUs

Intel is reportedly evaluating both external & internal foundry process technologies for its next-gen Nova Lake CPUs which are aiming for a 2026 launch. Intel's Next-Gen Nova Lake CPUs Will Be Evaluated Using TSMC & Intel Foundry Node A recent report from ChinaTimes, citing industry sources, suggests that Intel is in the early stages of the development of its next-gen CPUs, codenamed Nova Lake. According to the supply chain, Intel is planning to leverage TSMC's process technologies for its Nova Lake CPUs but it is also monitoring the development progress of its own 14A process node which is the internal […]

TSMC To Raise 3nm & 5nm Prices By Up To 8%, CoWoS To Witness Price Increase Too

TSMC is set to implement a "price rise" strategy across its in-demand products such as 5nm & 3nm nodes since the Taiwan giant is eager to maintain its gross margins and leverage from its strategic market position. TSMC's Semiconductor & Packaging Services Are In Hot Demand; 5nm & 3nm Production Lines Are Experiencing 100% Utilization Rates The Taiwan semiconductor giant might be in one of the best positions in the market, given the massive AI demand coming along the way and the orders from companies like Apple and Qualcomm for their respective consumer products. In light of this, TSMC is […]

TSMC To Initiate Construction of First European Fab In Germany Next Month, Production Expected By 2027

TSMC is all set to start constructing its first European fab in Germany by next month as the Taiwan giant moves towards becoming a "global" semiconductor leader. TSMC Enters The European Markets With Full Force, Plans To Develop Its First EU Fab In Germany, Right Next To IFS The semiconductor giant is on the way toward becoming a dominant force in the market since TSMC has expanded its region of influence, coming more towards the West. The Arizona facility in the United States is indeed a restatement that TSMC doesn't want to be "region-bounded," and now, with the disclosure of […]

TSMC Doesn’t Care if Moore’s Law is Alive or Dead, VP Says That It’s Irrelevant In Modern Times

TSMC believes that Moore's Law is irrelevant in modern-day markets, as the firm has sought out efficient methods of "technology scaling." TSMC Believes Technology Scaling Is Far Away From Fundamentals Set By Moore's Law, Innovation Will Continue To Exist The current semiconductor dynamics have evolved tremendously, and over the past few years, companies have started to pave out new ways to continue the innovation process in the markets rather than depending upon traditions such as Moore's Law. For those unaware, Moore's Law focuses on a continuous model of "node shrinking" in a certain period, associating this with the only way […]

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 […]
