If the information disclosed by industry chain people is true, Wei Zhejia may disclose the news of the 3nm process risk trial production in the financial report analyst conference call in January next year. In the second-quarter earnings analyst conference call in July this year, Wei Zhejia revealed that their 4nm process has been in trial production in the third quarter.
The source who revealed that TSMC’s 3nm process has begun trial production, also revealed that TSMC’s 3nm process was produced on a trial basis at the Fab 18. Fab 18 is also the main production plant for the 3nm process announced on TSMC’s official website.
TSMC stated on its official website that the 3nm process is a complete process node after 5nm. The theoretical density of transistors for the 3nm process foundry chip will be 70% higher than that of the 5nm process, the operating speed will be increased by 15%, and the energy efficiency will be increased by 30%.
