“Intel, TSMC and Samsung Electronics are discussing consignment production”-ZDNet Korea

It is reported that Intel is in discussions with TSMC and Samsung Electronics to consign some chips from 2023. Bloomberg News said this by citing multiple officials who requested anonymity on the 8th (US local time).

According to Bloomberg, Intel is in consultation with TSMC and Samsung Electronics to consign some chips from 2023. However, discussions with Samsung Electronics are still in the early stages compared to TSMC.

Intel faces pressure to separate semiconductor design and production as it struggles with process refinement after 10nm (nanometers).

Late last year, the U.S. activist fund’Third Point’ also called for consideration to separate semiconductor design from manufacturing.

Intel CEO Bob Swan also announced in October’s 3rd quarter earnings announcement that “we will flexibly consider whether to produce 7nm process products in-house, commissioned production, or mixed.”

Intel plans to announce the results on the 22nd (local time 21st), and it is expected to disclose a specific roadmap on that day.
