As the world's foundries a brother, TSMC TSMC advantage this year on advanced process will be further enhanced, in addition to the shortage 7nm 5nm and 6nm process will be in volume production to meet Apple, Huawei, Qualcomm and other large customers demand .
For this purpose the TSMC capital expenditure in 2020 of a new high in 2019, TSMC will increase capital spending to $ 140-150 million before an increase of $ 4 billion, compared, and in 2020 is at least $ 150- $ 160 billion, the highest in the history capital expenditures .
Huge capital is mainly used to amplify the advanced technology production line, in addition to 7nm full, there will be 5nm and 6nm process technology this year, especially the latter, Apple A14, 5nm process on Huawei's Kirin Hass 1020 chip will .
To this end TSMC is accelerating the purchase of equipment, the main benefit is the manufacturer ASML, KLA Lei Branch, Applied Materials and other companies, they supply lithography, etching machines are all important equipment manufacturing chips.
Among these, ASML's EUV lithography machine is undoubtedly the most critical, TSMC's second-generation 7nm process, 5nm process will be extensive use of EUV lithography machines, ASML capable of producing such devices only, each priced at more than $ 120 million.
According to ASML company released earnings , full-year 2019 total shipments of 26 sets of EUV lithography, 2020, is expected to deliver 35 sets of EUV lithography, 2021 will reach 45 units to 50 units of deliveries, 2019 twice about.
