TSMC will have four 2NM fabrication factories reportedly working at full capacity next year, with a combined monthly output of 60,000 wafers; Increased production will not bring assistance to customers

Next year, one ton of the company will introduce the first 2nm chipset in the industry, which only means that TSMC will gradually increase production, only a few months after it was reported that the manufacturer began to receive orders starting in April this year. To help this transition, the Taiwan semiconductor giant is reported to start this process in four facilities, with the latest production numbers estimated at 60,000 monthly units. Unfortunately, this will be an expensive effort for TSMC customers who want to get technological advantages in 2026.

Despite the full scale 2nm wafer production, TSMC is not expected to provide discounts to customers, with each unit estimated to be 50 percent more expensive than the 3nm node

With 2nm results at 60 percent during the experimental production phase, TSMC is quite a lot ready to switch to full scale production, with household names such as Apple, Qualcomm, MediaTek and others are expected to take advantage of this technology next year. As reported by Liberty Times Net, with details seen by and Nystedt mentioned the four factories located in Kaohsiung and Hsinchu. The P1 facility is currently in the mass production phase with a 10,000 monthly output wafer.

As a P2 facility, the report states that the equipment is currently being installed, with pilot production is expected to begin in three to four months, and a maximum capacity of 30,000 monthly units. As for the P1 factory located in Hsinchu, the production of experiments is completed, with mass production immediately starts, and the line is being arranged on the P2 website. The monthly production combination of the two facilities is estimated to reach between 30,000 and 35,000 units.

As mentioned above, total output is expected to reach 60,000 units, but even in this figure, TSMC has not been mentioned to offer discounts to customers, which means that each of them must pay $ 30,000 defeat. To reduce large -massive bills, TSMC reportedly started the ‘Cybershuttle’ service in April, where customers like Apple can evaluate their silicone on the same test wafer to save costs. Fortunately, with Samsung announced that the Exynos 2600 will be the first 2nm GAA SOC, its casting rival can reduce the price label if the Korean giant can increase production and increase results.
