#28nm — Public Fediverse posts

“China has crossed a milestone that many in the semiconductor industry once viewed as years away. A #Chinese state-backed company has begun mass producing homegrown immersion deep ultraviolet #DUV #lithography machines, marking the country’s first commercial manufacturing effort for one of the most advanced and tightly controlled pieces of #chipmaking equipment.

The move gives Chinese chipmakers their strongest domestic alternative yet to Western lithography systems and marks another step in Beijing’s campaign to reduce reliance on #ForeignTechnology after years of export restrictions from the United States and its allies.

The development was first reported by #TheInformation, which said the Shanghai-based manufacturer has already started production and expects to deliver its first systems to leading domestic chipmakers later this year.”

#China's chip output expected to double in five years
Most of the new production capacity will focus on older process technologies, such as #28nm and above. While these nodes are not at the forefront of the innovation, they are used for a wide range of applications, from home appliances to automobiles, which is why they remain in high demand and will remain. Barclays believes that People's Republic could expand its chip production capacity by 60% over next three years.
