Believe it or not, a U.S. company that just entered the business of building chips for fabless chip designers, will surpass TSMC and Samsung Foundry and take process leadership from the pair next year. The American company is Intel and, per Reuters, it made that announcement today after it signed Microsoft to be a customer of Intel Foundry. Today marked the first technology conference for the foundry which says that it will build Microsoft’s custom chip using its Intel 18A process.
