Samsung\u2019s EUV<\/span> capacity under 7nm will triple by end of 2020\n

To start ship\u00adping first 7 and 6nm-based mobi\u00adle chips from V1<\/span> line in 1Q<\/span><\/p><\/h3>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Sam\u00adsung Elec\u00adtro\u00adnics, a world lea\u00adder in advan\u00adced semi\u00adcon\u00adduc\u00adtor tech\u00adno\u00adlo\u00adgy, today announ\u00adced that its new cut\u00adting-edge semi\u00adcon\u00adduc\u00adtor fabri\u00adca\u00adti\u00adon line in Hwa\u00adse\u00adong, Korea, has begun mass production.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The faci\u00adli\u00adty, V1<\/span>, is Samsung\u2019s first semi\u00adcon\u00adduc\u00adtor pro\u00adduc\u00adtion line dedi\u00adca\u00adted to the extre\u00adme ultra\u00advio\u00adlet (EUV<\/span>) litho\u00adgra\u00adphy tech\u00adno\u00adlo\u00adgy and pro\u00addu\u00adces chips using pro\u00adcess node of 7 nano\u00adme\u00adter (nm) and below. The V1<\/span> line bro\u00adke ground in Febru\u00adary 2018, and began test wafer pro\u00adduc\u00adtion in the second half of 2019. Its first pro\u00adducts will be deli\u00adver\u00aded to cus\u00adto\u00admers in the first quarter.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201c<\/span>Along with tech\u00adno\u00adlo\u00adgy lea\u00adder\u00adship and design infra\u00adstruc\u00adtu\u00adre, manu\u00adfac\u00adtu\u00adring excel\u00adlence is one of the most important ele\u00adments of the foundry busi\u00adness,\u201d said Dr. ES<\/span> Jung, Pre\u00adsi\u00addent and Head of Foundry Busi\u00adness at Sam\u00adsung Elec\u00adtro\u00adnics. \u201cAs we ramp up pro\u00adduc\u00adtion, the V1<\/span> line will enhan\u00adce our abili\u00adty to respond to mar\u00adket demand and expand oppor\u00adtu\u00adni\u00adties to sup\u00adport our customers.\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The V1<\/span> line is curr\u00adent\u00adly pro\u00addu\u00adcing sta\u00adte-of-the-art mobi\u00adle chips with 7 and 6nm pro\u00adcess tech\u00adno\u00adlo\u00adgy and will con\u00adti\u00adnue to adopt finer cir\u00adcuit\u00adry up to the 3nm pro\u00adcess node.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

By the end of 2020, the cumu\u00adla\u00adti\u00adve total invest\u00adment in the V1<\/span> line will reach USD<\/span> 6 bil\u00adli\u00adon in accordance with Samsung\u2019s plan and the total capa\u00adci\u00adty from 7nm and below pro\u00adcess node is expec\u00adted to tri\u00adple from that of 2019. Tog\u00ade\u00adther with the S3<\/span> line, the V1<\/span> line is expec\u00adted to play a pivo\u00adtal role in respon\u00adding to fast-gro\u00adwing glo\u00adbal mar\u00adket demand for sin\u00adgle-digit node foundry technologies.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

As semi\u00adcon\u00adduc\u00adtor geo\u00adme\u00adtries grow smal\u00adler, the adop\u00adti\u00adon of EUV<\/span> litho\u00adgra\u00adphy tech\u00adno\u00adlo\u00adgy has beco\u00adme incre\u00adasing\u00adly important, as it enables sca\u00adling down of com\u00adplex pat\u00adterns on wafers and pro\u00advi\u00addes an opti\u00admal choice for next-gene\u00adra\u00adti\u00adon appli\u00adca\u00adti\u00adons such as 5G<\/span>, AI<\/span>, and Automotive.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

With the V1<\/span> line in ope\u00adra\u00adti\u00adon, Sam\u00adsung now has a total of six foundry pro\u00adduc\u00adtion lines in South Korea and the United Sta\u00adtes, inclu\u00adding five 12-inch lines and one 8\u2011inch line. (see below)<\/em><\/p>\n
