What does that "55%" refer to precisely? Wafer yield? Isn't 55 quite low?
- PaywallBuster 4y agoyou didn't read the whole line > 55% [a healthy level at this stage in N3 development], and TSMC looks on schedule to boost yields by around 5+ points each quarter.
- wmf 4y ago55% of the dies on each wafer are good. That does sound like low yield.

When Samsung lost Qualcomm as a customer for 4nm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chips, Samsung's yield was said to be about 35%. https://www.sammobile.com/news/samsung-foundry-4nm-yield-snapdragon-8-gen-1-chips-very-low/ https://www.sammobile.com/news/samsung-foundry-4nm-yield-sna...
