TSMC remains top choice for European AI chip startups amid capacity scramble (Digitimes)
|
|
|
European efforts to advance sovereign AI and chip autonomy are gaining momentum, but European AI chip startups say they still primarily rely on TSMC for high-performance computing chips. With the European Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (ESMC) yet to offer advanced process technologies, most high-end chips from Europe are produced within Taiwan's semiconductor ecosystem....

TSMC chairman C.C. Wei denies customer favoritism regarding tight 1Q26 capacity (Digitimes)
|
|
|
TSMC delivered an above-expectations financial performance in the first quarter of 2026 and remains optimistic about continued strong demand for advanced process technologies entering the second quarter. Regarding tight capacity constraints, Chairman C.C. Wei stated that while capacity remains tight, the company is actively expanding new fabs to meet demand. However, he noted that building new facilities takes time, so supply will remain limited in the short term. Still, the company will continue efforts to increase capacity to support customer demand and will not deliberately select or favor any particular customer....

Interview: Semidynamics expands from SoC to rack-level solutions, targeting memory-intensive AI inference (Digitimes)
|
|
|
Spain-based AI chip startup Semidynamics has recently seen a wave of positive developments. Its first chip, fabricated on TSMC's 3nm process, has successfully completed tape-out, and just weeks ago, the company secured an investment commitment from SK Hynix. Both significantly enhance its operational credibility and global visibility. CEO Roger Espasa stated that the company's proprietary Gazzillion technology is a specialized memory subsystem designed to address one of AI's most pressing challenges today: inefficient memory utilization, which has led to persistent supply constraints....

Taiwan Semi Slides Despite Record Results In Warning Sign For Chip Companies
Taiwanese chip giant, Taiwan Semiconductor Manfuacturing Co, said Thursday its net profit surged to a fresh record in the first quarter, fueled by the global artificial intelligence race despite the war in the Middle East. Massive demand for AI hardware means business is booming for TSMC -- the biggest contract maker of microchips used in everything from Apple phones to Nvidia processors.
TSMC's net profit for the first three months of the year jumped 58.3% YoY to NT$572.5 billion ($18 billion), beating analyst estimates of NT$540.20 billion as governments and tech giants continue to pour huge sums into building data centers that can train and run AI tools such as chatbots, image generators and agents that can execute tasks. A weaker Taiwanese dollar had also boosted the firm's revenues from overseas sales: the company said net revenue rose 35.1% YoY to a record NT$1.13 trillion. Gross margin was 66.2% in the fir...
