On December 7, it was reported by foreign media that there were twists and turns in the 10nm process, and the subsequent 7nm, 5nm and other processes were later than those of TSMC and Samsung Electronics, and Intel had the momentum to catch up. Their 4nm and 3nm processes were promoting mass production.
Intel is promoting the mass production of 4nm and 3nm manufacturing processes, which was disclosed by Ann Kelleher, their vice president and responsible for technology research and development, at a news conference in San Francisco on Monday local time.
Ann Kelleher said at the press conference that they have been using the 7nm process to produce chips in large scale, and the semiconductor with the 4nm process has also been ready for production, and will be ready to turn to 3nm in the second half of next year.
The 7nm process is ready for mass production, the 4nm process is ready for mass production, and the 3nm process is planned for the second half of next year, which means that their gap with TSMC and Samsung Electronics in terms of mass production time of advanced process technology is narrowing.
Ann Kelleher also revealed at the meeting that they are completely on track. They have a mileage indicator every quarter. According to the mileage indicator, they are ahead or back on track.
After Pat Kissinger returned to Intel and took over as CEO, he promised to return to the leading position in production technology. The leading process technology was one of the foundations of their dominance in the chip industry in the previous decades.
If Pat Kissinger's plan is successful, it will reverse the situation that market share has been eroded by competitors such as AMD and Nvidia. More advanced manufacturing processes will also attract more customers in the field of wafer foundry, challenging TSMC and Samsung Electronics in the growing foundry business.
