Samsung would have set up a team to focus on 1nm, with production scheduled for 2029

Rumors coming from South Korea, a homeland of Samsung, say the company has formed a team of developers dedicated completely to the creation of the 1nm process to manufacture chips. Not only that, unconfirmed information also points out that the company plans mass production with technology in 2029.

What draws attention to rumors is the fact that Samsung has faced problems in its most current and close manufacturing processes. Apparently, both 3nm and 2nm in GAA have delivered below expectations, and the company would have postponed the 2nm for next year.

Meanwhile, the main rival of all companies in the semiconductor segment, TSMC, would be accepting the first orders for 2nm chips since the beginning of this month, April.

Perhaps the idea of ​​focusing on 1nm since “early” comes precisely to face less difficulties and try to jump to the front in the manufacture of future chips. According to Sedaily, Samsung technology for such small transistors involves the use of high-na EUV equipment that the company does not have yet.

Will Samsung really cancel the 1.4nm process?

In mid -March we have rumored that Samsung would have canceled the development of its SF1.4 technology for the 1.4Nm process. Once again, rumors speak of the company’s difficulties in achieving their goals in chip production. According to the leak, the entire Foundry division of the Galaxy owner could be threatened.

It was speculated that the cancellation of the 1.4nm process would also have been done to focus on the development of 2NM, releasing more specialized professionals for this. Now, with new information talking about creating a 1nm -oriented team, we can interpret it as another indicative that we will not really see SF1.4 and Samsung can go straight from 2NM to 1nm.
