Leading foundry Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. Ltd. has said that it is developing a second transistor structure for its 16nm FinFET node, which will provide a 15 percent improvement in performance or power consumption.
Of particular note are Co-CEO Mark Liu's comment that the enhancement would put TSMC's 16nm FinFET process on a par with 16nm FinFET from Intel.
