TSMC will make 3nm chips in a plant in Arizona.

According to the founder of the Taiwanese company, TSMC, an Apple chip supplier, has plans in place to mass produce next-generation 3-nanometer chips at its $12 billion Arizona factory.

Morris Chang said the 3-nanometer factory would be situated at the same Arizona site as the 5-nanometer plant while speaking to media on Monday in Taipei.

TSMC claims that 3nm technology, also known as N3, will increase logic density by up to 70% and speed by up to 15% while using the same amount of power.

Compared to its predecessor, it can use up to 30% less power while maintaining the same pace.

According to the corporation, volume manufacturing is what it is aiming for in the second part of this year.
