\nMediaTek\u2019s first 3nm processor will be manufactured using TSMC\u2019s industry-leading 3nm chip fabrication technology. However, the company hasn\u2019t shared many details about the chip, not even its name. It has only said that the chipset will be a flagship offering under its Dimensity lineup. It will enter mass production next year. Devices powered by the chip will arrive on the market in the second half of 2024.
\nAccording to MediaTek, its first 3nm solution won\u2019t be limited to smartphones and tablets. The Taiwanese chip giant also expects the chip to power \u201cintelligent cars and various other devices.\u201d It says the processor is equipped with technologies necessary to meet the \u201cever-increasing user experience requirements\u201d for mobile computing, high-speed connectivity, artificial intelligence (AI), and multimedia.
\n\u201cWe are committed to our vision of using the world\u2019s most advanced technology to create cutting-edge products that improve our lives in meaningful ways,\u201d said MediaTek President Joe Chen. \u201cTSMC\u2019s consistent and high-quality manufacturing capabilities enable MediaTek to fully demonstrate its superior design in flagship chipsets, offering the highest performance and quality solutions to our global customers and enhancing the user experience in the flagship market.\u201d
\nMediaTek will benefit from TSMC\u2019s more efficient 3nm process
\nTSMC\u2019s 3nm process technology brings power, performance, and logic density improvements over older generations. Compared to its 5nm solutions, 3nm chips will deliver 18 percent after performance at the same power. Keeping the speed unchanged will result in a 32 percent power reduction. 3nm chips also bring a 60% increase in logic density, freeing up some space inside devices. Mediatek will benefit from these improvements.
\nAs said earlier, the Taiwanese firm will beat both Samsung and Qualcomm to the 3nm race. The latter two companies are sticking to the 4nm tech for at least one more year. Their 3nm smartphone chips won\u2019t be available until early 2025. So MediaTek will have a few months of headstart over its two arch-rivals in the semiconductor industry. Time will tell whether this helps it make further inroads into the premium phone segment, which is largely dominated by Qualcomm.The post MediaTek announces the world’s first 3nm smartphone chipset appeared first on Android Headlines.
