Recent #High-NA EUV news in the semiconductor industry

1 day ago

➀ Samsung purchased two high-NA EUV machines (Twinscan EXE:5200B) for $773 million to boost 2nm chip production, with deliveries planned for 2025 and early 2026;

➁ The machines, installed at Hwaseong R&D facility, will support 2nm foundry processes for Exynos processors and Tesla's ADAS chips, achieving transistor sizes down to 8nm;

➂ TSMC has delayed high-NA EUV adoption until 1.4nm processes, while Qualcomm and MediaTek consider shifting 2nm orders to Samsung due to TSMC's higher wafer costs ($30k per wafer).
