N2P

Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. provided several important updates about its upcoming process technologies at its North American Technology Symposium 2024. At a high level, TSMC's 2 nm plans remain largely unchanged: the company is on track to start volume production of chips on it's first-generation GAAFET N2 node in the second half of 2025, and N2P will succeed N2 in late 2026 – albeit without the previously-announced backside power delivery capabilities. Meanwhile, the whole N2 family will be adding TSMC's new NanoFlex capability, which allows chip designers to mix and match cells from different libraries to optimize performance, power, and area (PPA). One of the key announcements of the event is TSMC's NanoFlex technology, which will be a part of the company's complete N2...
