TSMC Unveils Next-Generation A14 Process Set to Arrive in 2028

TSMC revealed its A14 1.4nm process technology at the North America Technology Symposium in Santa Clara, California yesterday, showcasing a major leap in chipmaking. Set to start production in 2028, this process will boost the power and efficiency of future Apple devices, like iPhones and Macs, with a strong emphasis on enhancing AI capabilities."Our customers constantly look to the future, and TSMC's technology leadership and manufacturing excellence provides them with a dependable roadmap for their innovations," said TSMC Chairman and CEO Dr. C.C. Wei. "TSMC's cutting-edge logic technologies like A14 are part of a comprehensive suite of solutions that connect the physical and digital worlds to unleash our customers' innovation for advancing the AI future."A14 builds on TSMC's N2 process, which kicks off volume production later this year. It promises up to 15% faster performance at the same power or 30% less power use at the same speed. Logic density also gets a boost, packing over 20% more transistors into the same space. TSMC says A14's development is moving faster than planned, with yields already looking strong.Continue ReadingSpotlight Deal:M4 MacBook Air Drops to New All-Time Low of $912 [Deal]Share Article:Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Reddit, EmailFollow iClarified:Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Newsletter, App Store, YouTube
