Samsung Electronics said in its second-quarter conference call on July 28 that it would for the time being focus on rolling out 10-nanometer semiconductors rather than moving onto still-fledgling 7-nanometer chips.
“The 10-nanometer chip production boasts the highest efficiency and is fit for commercialization,” an official from the tech giant said in the conference call held in the morning.
Samsung Electronics’ 10-nano class DRAM chips.
The company added that it is ready to produce a prototype of the 7-nanometer chip, but its mass production will take place later when the production cost reaches an optimal level.
