Samsung to use TSMC technology for Nvidia's next-generation memory chips, Seoul newspaper reports

Nvidia is pushing suppliers to standardize NVHBM parts, and Samsung plans to keep making standard HBM and custom chips in-house.

  • On Sunday, the Seoul Economic Daily reported that Samsung Electronics will use TSMC's 3-nanometre process to produce base dies for Nvidia's next-generation custom high-bandwidth memory chips.
  • This collaboration marks the first time Samsung has worked with the Taiwanese contract chipmaker at the HBM manufacturing stage, as Nvidia seeks to standardize implementation across multiple memory suppliers via custom controllers.
  • Nvidia reportedly asked Samsung, SK Hynix, and Micron Technology to adopt TSMC's process for NVHBM base dies and sixth-generation DRAM technology for core dies, according to industry sources cited by the Seoul Economic Daily.
  • After an internal review, Samsung accepted Nvidia's requirements but plans to retain its in-house production model for standard HBM and custom products for other customers.
  • If demand exceeds TSMC's capacity, Samsung is evaluating whether its own foundry could produce NVHBM base dies, according to an unnamed source cited by the Seoul Economic Daily.
