The instability of macroeconomic situation forced TSMC to reconsider the amount of funds spent on capital construction and production modernization - the sum in the current year was reduced from $ 7.8 billion to $ 7.4 billion According to the company, market growth of contract chips manufacturing for the year do not exceed 7%, while TSMC previously was assured that they will reach 15%.
TSMC will start the transition to 28 nm process technology - with this technology will be produced next-generation graphics solutions AMD, which will be released later this year. If TSMC expects to receive before the end of this year up to 3% of its revenue from 28 nm chips, now this figure falls to 1%. Adjustments are made with the global economic situation and demand analysis. TSMC already released samples of 89 products using 28 nm technology, they all come in time. TSMC hope
that the expansion rate of 28 nm ill not affect AMD and NVIDIA plans to release new graphics chip. Related Products :
