Google reportedly taps Intel's EMIB-T for next-gen TPUs, challenging TSMC's packaging dominance

By PulseAugur Editorial · [2 sources] ·

Google is reportedly shifting its next-generation Tensor Processing Unit (TPU) production, codenamed Humufish, from TSMC's CoWoS-L advanced packaging to Intel's EMIB-T technology. This move, if accurate, signifies a significant challenge to TSMC's dominance in the AI and HPC processor packaging market. Intel's EMIB-T offers an alternative by using embedded silicon bridges instead of large interposers, potentially circumventing reticle size limitations and improving power delivery for demanding AI accelerators. AI

IMPACT This shift could signal increased competition in advanced chip packaging, potentially impacting AI hardware supply chains and costs.

RANK_REASON Reported shift in major cloud provider's hardware sourcing strategy for AI accelerators, challenging incumbent supplier.
