TSMC could start mass producing 1.6nm chips as soon as late 2026
Credit: Robert Triggs / Android Authority TL;DR TSMC has reportedly developed a 1.6nm chip manufacturing process. The process is said to deliver an 8% to 10% increase in computing speed, and a 15% to 20% decrease in energy consumption. TSMC is expected to start mass production in Q4 2026. While everyone’s excited about 2nm chips, IBM recently blew past that limit, showing off its sub-nm architecture. As a result, TSMC and other chip makers are …

TSMC Is Already Moving to 1.6nm While Everyone Else Is Still Waiting for 2nm
TSMC has developed a 1.6nm-class chip manufacturing process and is set to start mass production in late 2026. This is pretty impressive, considering the chips coming this fall from MediaTek, Qualcomm, and Apple are all expected to be 2nm. This is according to LibertyTimes, which says TSMC has completed development and verification of its angstrom-class A16 (1.6nm) process and is expected to enter mass production starting in the fourth quarter of…
