TSMC showcased its next-generation processes at its North America Technology Symposium in the US on Wednesday. The tech giant unveiled its A13 and A12 processes, which aim to meet demand for AI and high performance computing. In comparison with the previous A14, the A13 reduces the chip area by 6% and is more power efficient, while the A12 process features “super power rail” technology. Production for both is slated for 2029. Let’s hear from an expert.

The density of the circuitry in the A12 process is so high that it will implement an upgraded version of backside delivery technology known as the super power rail. This is set to be a standout feature in the A14 family, as it allows for the best performance with the best low-power operation. It is a killer application.

Market optimism around TSMC pushed its ADR up 5% on Wednesday, leading Taiwan’s stock market to surge by 1,000 points at Thursday’s opening. However, heavy profit-taking selling pressure soon emerged, dragging the index down. Taiwan shares ultimately closed 164 points lower after swinging more than 1,700 points during the trading session. Trading volume hit a record high of NT$1.4 trillion. TSMC’s share price also pulled back from an intraday gain of NT$85, finishing up NT$30 at NT$2,080.
