Samsung Listed In Nvidia's Chip Providers
Samsung Electronics has been confirmed to be one of Nvidia's chip manufacturing partner, besides TSMC.
"We do not manufacture the silicon wafers used for our GPUs and Tegra processors and do not own or operate a wafer fabrication facility. Instead, we are dependent on industry-leading foundries, such as Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Limited and Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd., to manufacture our semiconductor wafers using their fabrication equipment and techniques," reads an official filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
The statement doesn't detail which Nvidia chips come from Samsung's fabs or what process is used to manufacture them. But it's possibly
Nvidia's Tegra SoCs that will be using Samsung's 14-nm process.
Meritz Securities analyst Park Yu-ak had previously unveiled that Samsung would be manufacturing chips for Nvidia.
