On August 3, according to foreign media reports, many industries were affected in the first half of this year, but the impact on the chip field was not obvious. TSMC, which is at the forefront of the industry in terms of chip process technology, has two quarters in the first half of this year. The revenue of the company increased 45% and 34% year-on-year, respectively.
Judging from the latest reports from foreign media, chip foundries such as TSMC will still have good performance in the second half of the year. The capacity of some of their production lines is tight and they have increased their quotations.
Foreign media quoted news reports from industry chain sources that chip foundries, including TSMC and UMC, have increased their 8-inch wafer manufacturing prices by 10% to 20%.
Foreign media also mentioned in the report that chip foundries such as TSMC and UMC have increased their 8-inch wafer manufacturing quotations, indicating that their 8-inch production lines are tight.
Information from TSMC’s official website shows that they currently have six 8-inch fabs, which are the same in number as 12-inch super-large fabs. Increasing the manufacturing quotation of 8-inch wafers means that the revenue of TSMC’s 8-inch wafer fab will increase significantly in the second half of the year.
