Samsung strengthens its 5nm manufacturing capability not to sacrifice snapdragon 875 orders

 


In order not to lose big clients including Qualcomm, Samsung is expected to update its 5 nm technology. By the end of this year, the new production potential of this method will be announced.

The news at the time revealed that Qualcomm had asked TSMC last month for emergency assistance, hoping that because of certain difficulties with Samsung's 5 nm process, the latter would be able to produce X60 basebands and Snapdragon 875 G processors. The tentative orders for the Snapdragon 875 G are specifically for Samsung, according to the previous Qualcomm schedule. But still, it turns out that others will be moved in the future to TSMC.

This is not the first time there has been such coverage. But the 5 nm output potential of TSMC is currently very saturated. As you can imagine, this is primarily achieved with the Apple A14 processor and the latest Kirin chip from Huawei.

Samsung has currently gained all the orders back to them from Snapdragon and has also got the Huawei Kirin chip manufacturing order too due to the US-China trade war which caused TSMC to stop manufacturing Kirin Chipsets. Samsung now the monopoly company when it comes to 5nm processor manufacturing and with its state of art facility once again the Samsung becomes the king .
