Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co (TSMC) announced that their new chip manufacturing technology, called “A16”, is set to enter production in the second half of 2026. This technology will enable the delivery of power to computing chips from the backside of the chip, which will help accelerate artificial intelligence chips. This development is an area where TSMC has been competing with U.S. rival Intel.
Intel has recently stated that they expect to surpass TSMC in the speed of chip production with their “14A” technology in 2026. However, this highlights the ongoing competition in the semiconductor industry to develop faster and more advanced technologies to meet the demands of consumers.
TSMC is known for producing some of the world’s fastest chips, but Intel has been making strides in recent years. The company has been investing heavily in research and development to improve its chip manufacturing processes and stay ahead of TSMC and other competitors in the industry.
Overall, these developments demonstrate how companies are constantly striving for innovation and improvement in the semiconductor industry. As technology continues to evolve, companies will need to stay at the forefront of these advancements to remain competitive in the market.
