    TSMC statement on next-generation EUV

    Maybe Intel just gave away their power is not so high, possibly a pellicle limitation.

    TSMC statement on next-generation EUV

    Right now a bigger problem than High-NA is the EUV resist, a little surprised that was not explicitly mentioned in the TSMC report: (from ASML's HNA print)

    Huawei Pura 70 smartphone sales start; chip still a mystery

    CXMT can offer 12 GB but there are 16 GB models of Pura 70 (Ultra or Pro+), so those should be supplied by Korean manufacturers.

    TSMC statement on next-generation EUV

    It looks like A14 development is not hinging on High-NA either: "TSMC started development and made good progress on 14 Angstrom (A14) technology, which aims to further improve speed, power, density and cost," the company's Annual Report reads. "Looking ahead to A14 and beyond, TSMC R&D will...

    Intel is industry’s first mover on High NA EUV lithography system.

    Investment is not collaboration; the statement implied 30 years of continued hands-on collaboration with Intel on the project.

    Kirin 9000s Analysis: Should be Made by SMIC's N+2 Process

    Is the 1.8 million referring to P60 or Mate 60? The P60 is using the Snapdragon 8+ indeed, but that is not domestic. One analyst predicted Huawei to sell only 60 million (across all models) this year: https://www.reuters.com/technology/chinas-huawei-start-selling-pura-70-smartphones-2024-04-18/...

    Kirin 9000s Analysis: Should be Made by SMIC's N+2 Process

    It looks like the Pura 70 forecast of 10.4 million domestically generated would be too optimistic compared to the P60 only 1.8 million generated from TSMC? Aside, Huawei Mate 60 allegedly crossed 30 million, is that disputed?

    Kirin 9000s Analysis: Should be Made by SMIC's N+2 Process

    The P60 is using the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 which uses a 4nm process from TSMC. Presumably the chip supply would not be the limiter of sales.

    Intel is industry’s first mover on High NA EUV lithography system.

    High-NA customers need some strategy for the mask as well. Multilayer, absorber, and Intel now wants to change mask size as well (they didn't plan it with ASML earlier)?

    Intel is industry’s first mover on High NA EUV lithography system.

    Wait until they consider NVIDIA's (or their own) large dies.
