Samsung closes the gap with rivals in making tiny computer chips. The Korean company produces 2-nanometer chips that interest major tech firms like NVIDIA and Qualcomm. These companies need backup suppliers because the current market leader, TSMC, cannot make enough chips for everyone. Samsung makes good on about 40 percent of its chip attempts compared to 60 percent at TSMC. The difference keeps shrinking as Samsung improves its methods.
Tech giants want multiple sources for their important parts to avoid problems. Samsung plans to build these advanced chips at its Texas plant soon. The company fixed earlier issues with its manufacturing approach called Gate All Around. Both manufacturers race to create these extremely small chips that power phones and computers. Samsung sees this as a chance to win back business it lost with earlier chip designs.
