May 28th news, according to foreign media reports, TSMC is promoting the mass production of the second generation 5nm process in the fourth quarter of this year.

TSMC's first generation 5nm process began risk trial production as early as March last year, and now it has successfully achieved large-scale mass production. According to TSMC's official website, it plans to announce the N5P process one year after the 5nm process is announced.

This second generation 5nm process was mass-produced earlier than previously reported in 2021. The second generation of 5nm process is N5+, or N5 Plus and N5P.

After each chip process upgrade, TSMC often launches multiple generations of products. For example, after the 7nm process was put into production, it launched N7 and N7+. The 5nm process seems to be the same at this time. The second generation of 5nm process is N5+, or N5 Plus and N5P.

In addition, Xu Yaochang, the county magistrate of Miaoli County, Taiwan, recently announced on Facebook that TSMC plans to build a high-end chip packaging factory in the county, which will be completed and put into production by mid-2021.

shows that TSMC is actively promoting development in terms of technology and scale, which is in line with the current situation and can also seize a large number of orders through advanced production capacity.
