The first factory began mass production in late 2024 using 4-nanometer technology. Construction of the second facility has been completed, with production using 3-nanometer chips expected soon. Work is also underway on a third site that will feature the company’s cutting-edge 2-nanometer and A16 process technologies. (ANI)
