Both Nvidia and ATI Technologies plan to produce new chipsets this year processed on 0.11-micron technology at Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC), according to the companies’ top executives.
According to Nvidia president and CEO Huang Jen-hsun, the company will produce its next-generation high-end chipsets using a 0.11-micron process.
ATI chairman and CEO Ho Kwok-yuen has also said that his company will adopt a 0.11-micron process for all its new mid-range to high-end chipsets this year. ATI is making all of its 0.11-micron products at TSMC, but some desktop-use graphics chips and consumer market-use ICs are produced at United Microelectronics Corporation (UMC), he said.
The CEOs declined to identify the new chipsets that will be produced at TSMC.
