Ngokusho kukaMqondisi Omkhulu we-TSMC u-CC Wei, izinga lokusebenzisa umthamo wokukhiqiza we-2019nm lizokhula kakhulu engxenyeni yesibili ka-7 ngenxa yokukhula kwesizini kwesidingo sama-smartphones, kanye nesidingo sama-chips wekhompyutha esebenza kahle kakhulu, i-inthanethi yezinto kanye nezimoto. . Kakade kulo nyaka, izindinganiso ze-7nm zizobalelwa ku-25% wayo yonke imali engenayo yenkampani.
Futhi emhlanganweni wabatshalizimali ngo-Ephreli 18, isikhulu simemezele ukuthi i-TSMC isiqalile ukukhiqiza ngobuningi ngokuhambisana nezinkambiso ze-N7+ (ubuchwepheshe benqubo ye-7-nm obusebenzisa ingxenye ye-lithography ebangeni eliyingozi le-ultraviolet EUV). ukuthi inkampani ihlela ukuqala ukukhiqizwa okuyingozi kwama-chips isebenzisa amazinga we-6nm kwikota yokuqala ka-2020. I-N6 ihlinzeka ngo-18% ophezulu wokuminyana okunengqondo ku-chip kune-N7, kodwa bonke ubuchwepheshe bokuklama buhambisana ne-N7.
Ngokuqondene nobuchwepheshe benqubo ye-TSMC ye-5nm, ukuthuthukiswa kwayo, ngokusho komphathi, sekugcwele ngokugcwele - kule kota inkampani izoqala ukwamukela ama-oda okuqala avela kumakhasimende. Umkhiqizi uhlela ukuletha inqubo yezobuchwepheshe ekukhiqizeni ngobuningi engxenyeni yokuqala ka-2020. I-TSMC ibheka i-5nm njengobuchwepheshe benqubo ebalulekile neyesikhathi eside.
Kodwa-ke, ngokusho kukaMnu. Wei, i-TSMC ihlose ukwandisa ngokucophelela imiqulu yokukhiqiza engu-5nm. Ukukhishwa kokuqala kungase kube kancane kune-N7, kodwa inkampani isakholelwa ukuthi ingakhuphula ngokushesha ukukhiqizwa kwe-N5.
Ngokusho kukaMnu. Wei, umkhakha we-HPC uzoba nomthelela omkhulu ekukhuleni kwenkampani kule minyaka emihlanu ezayo. Sikhuluma ngamaphrosesa, ama-accelerator e-AI kanye namadivayisi enethiwekhi. Ngokuhamba kwesikhathi, imali engenayo evela emkhakheni we-HPC izokhula ngamadijithi aphindwe kabili ngonyaka. Isikhulu siphinde isitatimende saso sangaphambili sokuthi imali etholwa yi-TSMC izokhula ngesizotha kuphela ngo-2019.
Kulo nyaka, inkampani ihlele ukusetshenziswa kwezimali kwezigidigidi eziyi-10-11. Ngokusho kwe-TSMC CFO Laura Ho, cishe u-80% wemali etshaliwe izosetshenziswa ekuthuthukiseni amazinga athuthukile okukhiqiza, u-10% ekwenzeni ngcono ukupakishwa kwama-chip kanye namasu okukhiqiza. kanye no-10% - ngobuchwepheshe obukhethekile.
