We recently reported that Samsung prepared to start production node 3 nmnow she confirmed that begins to produce its own equipment. Department Samsung Foundry has confirmed the mass production of its new process, which will based on the new GAA transistor architecture (Gate-All around).

O GAA represents the evolution of technology after FinFET and will allow the foundry to select transistors without affecting the chip’s ability to conduct current. The company claims that with its new node, it will bring a number of benefits to the chips that use it.

Among the improvements, the manufacturer highlights that it is The first generation will bring a 45% reduction in power consumption.general 23% more productivity in 16% less area compared to its 5nm node. But Samsung says it’s already planning a second generation 3 nmwhich will increase consumption reduction up to 50%from 30% more power as well as 35% less area compared to the 5 nm process technology.

Semiconductors can be used in Snapdragon 8 Gen 2

officially Samsung hasn’t revealed clients of his new node yet, but yesterday (30) SamMobile brought information that the first client of the company should be PanSemi. The portal notes that thisthe first production will be more like “3nm GAA testrather than mass production, so the first models should be sold to a Chinese company.

OUR PanSemi semiconductors should be used to create chips for mining bitcoin. Testing its production and technology, the South Korean giant is rooting for TSMS not keeping up with orders for the company’s next high-end SoC Qualcomm.

Currently new Snapdragon 8 Generation 2 planned to use 3nm node TSMSbut how Apple part of this process has already been purchased, the company may not be able to supply all the chips for the next Snapdragon. As a result, the North American company may have to complete the supply of chips using the technology Samsungor even transfer all production to the South Korean hub, as was the case with Snapdragon 8 generation 1.
