Taiwanese police uncovered an underground transfer network between the island and South Korea that had been operating since 2018. The organizer turned out to be a former TSMC engineer; from the 12 detained individuals, police seized cash, cryptocurrency, Rolex watches, and a Tesla Model S Plaid.

In August 2026, Samsung raised prices for contract production of 4-nm and 5-nm chips by 10–15%, monetizing the global capacity shortage. Against the backdrop of full utilization of lines in Pyeongtaek and new customers, the company's foundry business may turn profitable as early as 2027.

🚀 Samsung Electronics launches the AI era in chip manufacturing! The company has recruited Professor Han Bo-hyeon from Seoul National University to develop AI models that will optimize the design and production of microchips. This is part of a strategy to compete with TSMC and address the chip shortage problem until 2028. 🧠💻 #Samsung #AI #Semiconductors #Technology

📱 The Google Pixel 11 with the Tensor G6 processor does not use a 2nm process as expected. Officially confirmed: the chip is manufactured using TSMC's 3nm technology. This decision is dictated by economics and rising memory prices. 📉 #GooglePixel11 #TensorG6 #Tech2026

🚀 Microsoft prepares a powerful response to Nvidia: the launch of Maia 300 AI chips is expected as early as September 2026. 📉 Goal: Reducing dependence on competitor chips and developing its own Azure infrastructure. 🏭 Scale: An order for more than 300,000 chips from TSMC is being discussed, with plans to reach 1 million units. 🤝 Clients: New accelerators may be offered to major partners, including Anthropic. 📊 Context: Microsoft is catching up with Google and Amazon, which are already actively monetizing their TPU and Trainium chips. #Microsoft #AI #Maia300 #Nvidia #TechNews #XABinfo

🚀 TSMC reports a 45% revenue increase to $14.5 billion. The AI boom continues: Google, Microsoft, Meta, and Amazon are investing $2.4 trillion in infrastructure. Apple is preparing for the September iPhone release, boosting chip demand. Despite a 50% stock rise since the start of the year, investors are noting a minor correction (-5% since June) amid margin concerns. #TSMC #AI #TechNews #Chips

🚀 TSMC and Taiwanese scientists have made a breakthrough in 2D electronics! A new method for creating transistors based on molybdenum disulfide (MoS₂) has been developed. 🔬 The core problem: standard insulators are poorly deposited on 2D materials and reduce their performance. 💡 The solution: creating an atomic buffer of aluminum oxide between MoS₂ and the HfO₂ dielectric. 📉 The result: dielectric thickness reduced to 1 nm without loss of electron mobility. This opens the way to chips significantly more efficient than silicon counterparts. #TSMC #MoS2 #Semiconductors #TechNews #2DTransistors

🚀 TSMC and NYCU have unveiled a breakthrough technology for next-generation chips. Engineers have developed a method for creating 2D transistors based on molybdenum disulfide (MoS₂), which solves the problem of current control at the nanometer level. The key solution is the use of an ultra-thin aluminum oxide layer (0.42 nm) for ideal coverage. This could become the basis for processors with record density and energy efficiency in the coming years. #TSMC #Semiconductors #MoS2 #TechNews

Taiwan is preparing amendments to the law requiring large consumers, including TSMC, to build their own power plants. This will deprive the company of the advantages of a centralized network and could lead to a rise in chip prices. 🏭⚡📉

TSMC breaks records: A14 (1.4nm) process development is outpacing N2. Performance and yield hit 90% in just three months. 🚀📉

ASML has announced a bonus payment of 20,000 euros to all employees in the form of shares. 📈 The decision is linked to the boom in demand for AI equipment. The conditions for receiving the bonus require working at the company until 2030. 🤖

TSMC is struggling to keep up with the frantic demand for AI chips from NVIDIA and AMD. Due to capacity shortages, orders are flowing to Intel and other manufacturers, which could permanently alter the balance of power in the industry 📉🤖

Huawei is launching its own DRAM memory chip production in partnership with Swaysure. The new factory, with a capacity of 140,000 wafers per month, aims to reduce dependence on global suppliers and bypass US sanctions. 🇨🇳💾🚀

Google is preparing a revolution: Tensor G6 will become the first Android chip on TSMC's 2nm process, overtaking Apple. The Pixel 11 is also expected to replace Samsung modems with MediaTek to improve connectivity. The presentation will take place on August 12 alongside the Pixel Watch 5 announcement. 📱🚀
