SEOUL: Samsung Electronics Co Ltd has begun work on a sixth domestic contract chip production line, the company said on Thursday, to make logic chips for mobile phones and computers as it looks to cut reliance on the volatile memory chip sector.
Samsung is targeting the second half of next year to start producing advanced 5 nanometre chips, using extreme ultraviolet technology, on the added line in its plant in Pyeongtaek city, within a two-hour drive of the capital, Seoul. TSMC, the world's biggest contract chipmaker, plans to build a US$12 billion factory in the U.S. state of Arizona, it said last week.Samsung now operates five foundry lines in South Korea and one in the United States.
