TSMC Announces New Chip Manufacturing Technology ‘A16’ in Race to Produce Faster, More Efficient AI Chips

In Santa Clara, California, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co (TSMC) announced the upcoming production of a new chip manufacturing technology called “A16” in the second half of 2026. This announcement was made by TSMC’s co-Chief Operating Officer Y.J. Mii at a conference in Santa Clara.

The A16 technology will allow for the delivery of power to computing chips from the backside of the chip, which will enhance the speed of artificial intelligence chips. This development is an area where TSMC has been competing with its U.S. rival, Intel.

TSMC currently holds the title as the world’s largest contract manufacturer of chips for companies such as Nvidia and is known for producing the fastest chips in the world. However, Intel recently announced its “14A” technology, which it expects will surpass TSMC’s capabilities in terms of speed in 2026.

This competition between TSMC and Intel highlights the fast-paced advancements in chip manufacturing technology and the race to produce the most efficient and powerful chips for various applications.
