Samsung, the South Korean tech giant, has just announced that it has started the mass production of 6nm and 7nm EUV (Extreme Ultraviolet) chipsets. These are the latest from the company and are being manufactured in Samsung’s newly built V1 facility, a first of its kind dedicated production line for synthesizing chips.

For those unaware, Samsung Electronics is a diverse group with its business operations ranging apart from just home appliances and consumer grade electronic products like smartphones. One of its most successful and impactful business is its chipset production, with the company being a market leader in this field. According to the official announcement, the company will be delivering its 6nm and 7nm EUV chips to its various customers in the first quarter of 2020.

Samsung’s V1 facility which is located in Hwaseong, South Korea, is a specialized facility with state of the art technology is responsible for the production. The company has even future proofed the facility as it is even capable of production of chipsets as small as 3nm in the near future. Notably, the 5nm process has already been depleted by Samsung, who is now moving over to 4nm chips.

Furthermore, the overall investment that the Samsung facility will receive by the end of this year is estimated to be around 6 billion US Dollars. This will also cause the production capacity of the production line to grow to a size nearly triple that of last year. Similarly, its other manufacturing facilities like S1, S3 are also capable of synthesizing such sub-10nm wafers, which are currently in high demand.

According to Samsung, the EUV lithography process, which is the technology behind it, is crucial to creating more complex patterns on the wafers. Additionally, the chips made from this advanced process will serve various different purposed like 5G networking, artificial intelligence and a lot more. As of right now, the company has six production lines like this which are already taking in orders from industry giants like Qualcomm, Baidu, NVIDIA, and even Intel.

When Apple introduced the iPhone 5S with 64 bit processor, Samsung is also doing the same thing, that Samsung wont to miss this stage. Samsung is also talkative and revealed that they are also planning to launch a 64 bit chips.

And now they were said to have reached the final stage in the development of 64-bit processor chips for tablets and smartphones.

According to the news recently, Samsung will bring 64-bit processor to their products. Additionally, this chip is also used by Samsung's Chromebook which released in 2014.

Previously, it was also spread the news about the support for 64-bit processors on the Android OS KitKat. Another report revealed that the Android operating system which has been developed on Linux actually supports the use of 64-bit processors. And the decision to use 64-bit processors were in the hands of manufacturers of smartphones and Android tablets.

In the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2013 event few days ago, Samsung has launched its new mobile processor Exynos 5 Octa SoC with eight cores. Of the eight cores, divided into two CPUs. The first four CPU cores using ARM Cortex A7, and the other four uses ARM Cortex A15. While there is no information about the GPU.

In Exynos 5 Dual, the GPU used is the ARM Mali-T604. Many people who assume that the Exynos 5 Octa also use the same GPU. However, based on the information, Exynos 5 Octa processor uses a different GPU, the PowerVR SGX 544MP3 running up to 533MHz.

PowerVR SGX 544 GPU with 543 different from that used in Apple A5/A5X. These processors are the addition of DirectX 10 and setting 2x faster. While the graphics performance on Exynos 5 Octa said to have performance between Apple A5X and A6X.
