Samsung challenges TSMC with improved 2nm GAA yield for AI chips

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Samsung is reportedly improving its 2nm GAA yield to over 70%, posing a significant challenge to TSMC's dominance in advanced AI chip manufacturing. The company's integrated approach, combining memory, foundry, and packaging services, along with a projected 40% share of the HBM market by late 2026, could disrupt the AI supply chain. This development offers Western chip designers an alternative to TSMC and could shift the industry's reliance on a fragmented supply model. AI

IMPACT Samsung's improved yield and integrated offerings could diversify the AI chip supply chain, potentially lowering costs and increasing competition.
