The second half of 2023.
TSMC's 3-nanometer process uses fin-field-effect transistor (FinFET) architecture to deliver the most mature technology, high performance and best cost. TSMC said that the current technology research and development has been completed, mainly applied to high efficiency computing (HPC) and 5G smart phone devices, the first wave of 3nm main customers in addition to Apple and Intel, the follow-up supermicro, Mediatek, Huida, Qualcomm and so on are also planned to follow.
TSMC said it will also disclose that the 3 nanometer (N3) will be mass-produced in the second half of 2022, and the extension product \"3 nanometer enhanced version\" (N3e) will be launched in the next year, and the mass production schedule is estimated to be in the second half of 2023.
