Which is better, Intel or TSMC?

At present, TSMC is the most powerful in the field of chip foundry. Chips such as Apple, Huawei and MediaTek are all foundries of TSMC. At the same time, Qualcomm also handed over a large number of chips to TSMC, which took over about 50% of the chip orders.

In terms of technology, TSMC is also the strongest. At present, it has entered the 5nm technology. For example, Apple A 14 and Huawei Kirin 1020 are all chips with 5nm technology, which will be released in the second half of the year, while Samsung will be relatively backward.

So besides these two points, how powerful is TSMC? I believe that many people don't really have many concepts, so today we will talk about how powerful TSMC is.

First of all, in terms of revenue and market value. At present, TSMC's market value is about $270 billion, which is similar to Intel's market value, only a few hundred million dollars apart. Ranked second among semiconductor companies and first among Intel.

In terms of revenue and profit, in 20 19, TSMC's revenue was $35.774 billion (256 billion yuan), and its net profit was $118.36 million (about 84.7 billion yuan), with a profit rate as high as 33%.

In addition, TSMC has three 12-inch fabs, four 8-inch fabs and one 6-inch fabs in Taiwan Province province, one 12-inch fabs in Nanjing, one 8-inch fabs in the United States and one 8-inch fabs in Chinese mainland. These capacities of TSMC are equivalent to about 1.2 inch1.200 million round crystals per year.

Not long ago, it also planned to invest 654.38+0.2 billion dollars to build a 5nm chip factory. In addition, TSMC currently has 565,438+0,000 employees worldwide, mainly in Taiwan Province Province.

In addition, from the perspective of process diversity, TSMC has various chip production and packaging technologies. Mobile phone chips account for 49% of revenue, high-performance computing accounts for 30%, Internet of Things accounts for 8%, automotive electronics accounts for 4%, consumer electronics accounts for 5%, and other products account for 4%.

In 20 18, TSMC produced 10436 different chip products for its 48 1 customers, and used 26 1 different technologies. In 20 19, Taiwan Province production company produced 10 and 76 1 2 different products for 499 customers with 272 technologies. It is equivalent to producing 30 different chips every day for the past two years.

It can be seen that TSMC is really not only technologically advanced. From the perspective of chips, process diversity, production capacity and fabs, it is a real giant enterprise.
