TSMC 2nm Process Mass Production Schedule Tipped; TSMC N3P Said to Dominate Market Next Year

A new update has arrived from a tipster on the Weibo platform revealing that the mass production using TSMC’s 2nm process technology will be taking place later next year, while the third generation 3nm process technology is probably going to dominate the market during the interim period.

TSMC – 2nm Mass Production and N3P Domination Next Year

This update comes from the tipster Digital Chat Station who notes in his Weibo post that TSMC, the Taiwanese semi-conductor manufacturing company, might be starting the mass production using 2nm process technology from later next year and it is scheduled for second half of 2025. [Apple could be the early adopters as always, as per reports.]

The same tipster also adds that the industry next year will be dominated by the brand’s N3P process technology, the third generation 3nm process technology, and it will possibly be the mainstream process used even in Qualcomm’s next generation SM8850 chip (the expected second generation chip of Snapdragon 8 Elite).

Speaking more, the tipster mentions that earlier tests have suggested that Qualcomm may likely use both Samsung’s SF2 and TSMC’s N3P technologies for its next flagship Snapdragon chip as relying on a single company would probably shoot up the price and this is what happened with the latest Snapdragon 8 Elite flagship processor. However, it is still likely that TSMC’s N3P technology may only be used. The next generation chip made using this technology is also pointed out to bring at least 20%+ performance improvement and built-in single-frame-level power consumption over this year’s chip.

Stay tuned for more updates.
