The chip produced by MediaTek using TSMC's 3nm process has been successfully produced and is expected to be mass produced in 2024.
September 7, 2023-MediaTek and TSMC jointly announced today that the development of MediaTek's first Tianji flagship chip produced by TSMC's 3nm process is progressing smoothly and has been successfully filtered and is expected to be mass produced next year. MediaTek and TSMC have maintained a close and deep strategic cooperation for a long time, giving full play to their unique advantages in chip design and manufacturing to create high-performance, low-power flagship chips with high energy efficiency and global terminal equipment.
Chen Guanzhou, General Manager of MediaTek, said: "MediaTek is committed to using the world's most advanced technology to create cutting-edge technology products for users to enhance and enrich public life in its strategy of expanding the global flagship market. TSMC's stable and high-quality manufacturing capability fully demonstrates MediaTek's excellent design on its flagship chips, providing global customers with the best chip solutions with high performance, high energy efficiency and stable quality, and bringing unprecedented user experience to the flagship market. "
Dr. Hou Yongqing, Senior Deputy General Manager of TSMC's Eurasian Business and Technology Research, said, "over the years, TSMC has worked closely with MediaTek to bring many major innovations to the market, and we are honored to continue to work together on 3nm and more advanced technology. The cooperation between TSMC and MediaTek on Tianji's flagship chip brings the top process technology in the semiconductor industry to mobile terminals such as smartphones, giving users around the world an unparalleled experience. "
TSMC's 3nm process technology not only provides complete platform support for high-performance computing and mobile applications, but also has enhanced performance, power consumption and yield. Compared with the 5-nm process, the logic density of TSMC's 3-nm process technology increases by about 60%, the speed increases by 18% at the same power consumption, or the power consumption is reduced by 32% at the same speed.
MediaTek has been building Dimensity Tianji flagship chips based on industry-leading process technology to meet the upgrading experience needs of users in mobile computing, high-speed connectivity, artificial intelligence, multimedia entertainment and other areas, enabling smartphones, tablets, smart cars and other devices. MediaTek's first Tianji flagship chip using TSMC's 3nm process will be available in the second half of 2024, injecting strong strength into the new generation of terminal devices and leading the user experience to a new chapter.
