In a paid article in Foreign Media Digitimes, not only TSMC has a large-scale production of 3 nano-chip, but also talked about the reinforced 3 nano-wafer called N3E, but the actual name is not yet determined. The enhanced 5 nano-process currently used in large-scale production Apple A15 Bionic is called N5P, so it will be interesting if TSMC adheres to N3E or seeks other names. According to the latest information, the manufacturing giant is expected to produce its enhanced 3 nanometer nodes in the second half of 2023.

The news said that TSMC has postponed 3 nm chip production in 2022, which means that Apple will not be able to achieve the latest and greatest technology, but have to rely on Taiwan chip manufacturer's 4 nm technology. Fortunately, in this payment report, TSMC is expected to start mass production of 3 nano chips in the second half of 2022, indicating that Apple's IPHONE 14 series A16 bionic chip can be produced without delay in this architection. .

It is said that all supply of TSMC 3 nano chips will be available to Apple to achieve a leading advantage in competition, so this California giants take the same initiative when the N3E node is shipped. Unfortunately, I don't know how serious the chip shortage after two years, I don't know how many premiums are required for Apple to get this shipment from TSMC, which is unfavorable for consumers because they will not Don't take more cash to get the latest iPhone.

Assumption is not improved, 3 nanometers and enhanced 3 nano nodes may become an expensive order for Apple. Then, Samsung can use its own 3 nm technology to reduce the technical gap between the maximum chip manufacturing opponent, which is said that mass production will begin in the first half of 2022. However, we don't know how much it will have a chip when Samsung is ready to accept a variety of customers.
