In the war to achieve most advanced manufacturing nodesemiconductor manufacturers move forward to gain the greatest number of customers. Samsung has announced who is accelerating his work with the advanced 2 nanometer nodesince you have installed new machinery in its S3 factory to begin production of the wafers under this node. A manufacturing that has promised 7,000 wafers every month during the first quarter of 2025.
But this is not his most ambitious project, he also wants to produce wafers with a more advanced node, that of 1.4 nanometers. These plans are designed so that your S5 produces these wafers during the second quarter of 2025with a more modest production of between 2,000 and 3,000 wafers in each month. Some plans adapted to be able catch up to TSMCthe current undisputed winner. For this Samsung has had to make other adjustments in other plants, where the one located in Texas has delayed its start until 2026.
Samsung wants increase that market share which barely exceeds 11%, to take away some customers from TSMC. As we have read, a good production with this 2nm node it can be crucial for Samsungif the move goes well, it can offer the Korean manufacturer advantage over its competitors and thus increase its customers and close the distance with the Taiwanese manufacturer.
