TSMC Forms Task Force to Accelerate 2nm Chip Production

Silicon wafer

TSMC has formed an internal 'One Team' task force dedicated to timely development, trial production, and mass production of its N2 (2nm-class) process technology, according to reports from CNA and TorrentBusiness (via@DanNystedt). The 'One Team' approach suggests a unified and concerted effort, bringing together expertise and resources to streamline the development and implementation of the 2nm process. 

Forming a special task force is somewhat out of character, as TSMC typically launches pilot and then mass production on its latest fabrication technologies at one fab. This time around, according to reports, things will be different. TSMC has plans to commence simultaneous pilot production on its N2 process at two fabs at its Hsinchu site: one in Baochan and another in Kaohsiung. The company intends to start pilot production at both locations in 2024 and initiate volume production in 2025.
