TSMC Stopping Production for Huawei: We Have Enough Demand

The world's largest independent semiconductor manufacturer TSMC; It has a wide customer network consisting of giant companies in the technology industry such as Apple, Huawei, MediaTek and Qualcomm. The company is currently owned by Apple A14 Bionic chipset before the end of this month. in 5nm architecture It is expected to start producing. 

The new generation processor has fewer than 8.5 billion transistors in its predecessor, the A13 Bionic chip. with 15 billion transistors future. The higher the number of transistors in the integrated circuit, the more powerful and energy efficient the processor. Similarly Huawei This year, TSMC will introduce a new device to be produced in the 5nm process. HiSilicon will have the chip. 

Before we reported like, recently US Commerce Department A new export rule introduced by U.S. requires foreign companies using American-made chipmaking equipment to be forced to buy products before supplying products to companies like Huawei that the Washington government has banned from trading. US license required them to take it. 

However, the USA gave TSMC until mid-September this year to work with Huawei. Therefore, the Taiwan-based company Mate 40 series It can produce chipsets that will power phones without needing any licenses. At least until autumn. 

Meanwhile, in the USA last May, TSMC 12 billion dollars Let us not forget to mention that he decided to establish a factory with investment. a breathless fight against China trade war started by US President Donald Trump, has wanted to reduce China's share in the global supply chain since the day he was elected. Naturally, this huge investment by TSMC represents an important victory for Trump.

Speaking to the news agency Reuters, Kung Ming-hsin, the new head of Taiwan's economic planning agency, said that the United States should withdraw from Taiwan. Chinese He said that he did not want him to cut all ties with him. Due to the Washington government's deep relations with the Chinese state, HuaweiStating that he was targeting , Kung stated that they did not have any hostility with Beijing.

On the other hand, former Google CEO Eric Schmidt (currently head of the Pentagon's Defense Innovation Board) recently said that the United States was trying to prevent Huawei from being successful in the smartphone and network equipment market and ranking first in the global smartphone market.
