Semiconductor Industry Roundup (June–July 2025): Advanced Chips, Equipment, and Geopolitics

Semiconductor Industry Roundup (June–July 2025): Advanced Chips, Equipment, and Geopolitics

In summer 2025, TSMC reported near 90% yield on its 3 nm process, versus Samsung’s roughly 50% yield. Samsung, which pioneered 3 nm gate-all-around transistors in 2022, continues to struggle with yields but has won Google’s Tensor G5 on 3 nm and other new clients for older nodes. TSMC and Samsung are racing toward 2 nm (N2-class) technology, with TSMC’s 2 nm on track for risk production and high-volume manufacturing in late 2025 or early 2026. Intel detailed an 18A process (approximately 1.8 nm class) at the mid-June VLSI Symposium, promising >30% logic density scaling and up to ~20% higher

Global Semiconductor Industry Trends and 2025 Outlook: AI Boom, Advanced Nodes, and Geopolitics (Report: June 27th, 2025)

Global semiconductor revenue reached $626 billion in 2024, up 18.1% from 2023, with Gartner projecting about $705 billion in 2025. Data-center AI chip sales rose to $112 billion in 2024, up from $64.8 billion in 2023, making generative AI workloads the second-largest semiconductor market after smartphones. Memory revenue jumped about 72% in 2024 and accounted for roughly 25% of total market, with HBM revenues expected to grow 66% in 2025 to $19.8 billion. TSMC’s 2nm node (N2) is in pilot production with high-volume manufacturing planned for 2H 2025, aiming for about 50,000 wafer starts per month by end-2025, with Apple
