Apple will take 90% of TSMC's manufacturing capacity at 3 nanometers



The next processors Apple Silicon for iPhones, iPads and MacBooks will be made by TSMC in its manufacturing process of 3 nanometers N3B. The most striking thing is that 90% of the capacity of the Taiwanese manufacturer will be dedicated to the creation of these processors for the apple companywhich will leave out of the game other companies that plan to make the leap to 3 nanometers and that currently delegate the manufacture of their chips with 4 and 5 nanometer processes to TSMC, such as AMD or Qualcomm.

These data come from the Asian environment Digitimes and, although there is no official confirmation, this information agrees with previous rumors where it was said that Qualcomm was going to bet on Samsung to manufacture mobile processors at 3 nanometers due to the saturation that TSMC had in its N3B process.

In fact, there have also been rumors that AMD will also make the jump to Samsung to make some of its low-power ranges of Ryzen 7000 processors for laptops for the same reason: Apple takes a good chunk of 4nm output too.

It will be necessary to be attentive to see the movements of the companies and who will finally manufacture the new generations of chips.
