[ad_1] What RAPIDUS from these companies is a signature contract for huge production chips in 2027 using a 2NM operation knot produced by TSMC, Samsung Foundry and Intel later this year (if you calculate the Intel 18A node as "real 2nm."). To help the company meet the 2027 timetable, the Japanese government sank 200 billion yen ($ 1.37 billion) in the startup. Rapidus is behind TSMC, the largest museum in the world, in 2NM but the CEO of the startup company is optimistic. Atsuyoshi Kokee believes that using the most advanced manufacturing methods, Rapidus can compete with TSMC and Samsung Foundry. Interestingly, Rapidus was funded by the Japanese government and major companies in the country such as SoftBank and Sony specifically to compete with the Mascak such as TSMC and Samsung Foundry. Rapidus and IBM together develop 2nm chips production. | IBM credit image The Japanese company hopes to start testing 2nm chips production later this month and at this end, the initial model production line has been created in Hokkaido. Rapidus hopes to start making chips for customers before the end of this month. An agreement with Apple will come a long way to create a startup as a legitimate competitor in the contract muse. It also helps to obtain the financial support they enjoy from the Japanese government.

Can this new start-up chip foundry allow Tim Cook to relax when it comes to TSMC?
A new Japanese chip maker wants to be a masculine stars of artificial intelligence. From the stars, we mean huge technology companies, even those that have not mastered artificial intelligence (which includes Apple). The company, Rapidus, spoke with great players in artificial intelligence and these names you know like Apple, Google, Meta, Amazon and Microsoft. We wrote for the first time about the company in 2023, and it is interesting to see that it is now ready to start producing 2nm chip this month.
In addition to working on the production of artificial intelligence chips, Rapidus hopes to become an alternative company to semi -conductors for companies such as Apple that depends on TSMC to produce its chips. With China always contemplating the self -sufficiency in the production of chips and considered a threat to create chaos in the region, there is a fear of TSMC's ability to continue to stay.
Many Apple CEOs are certainly concerned about time to time about the company's dependence on TSMC. The successful Rapidus should be a matter that you like Apple to happen because the presence of only one chips in an unstable area is not something Tim Cook wants to worry for a longer period. Yes, TSMC will make 2nm chips in the United States in the end, but with the Apple size needed by Apple, the presence of another plate to operate to it will be a huge addition to Apple, and for most TSMC customers as well.[IMG[IMG[IMG[img
