Home Comparison confirms that SMIC reaches 7nm without access to western equipment & technologies Similarities with TSMC 7nm have been found SMIC's latest technology processor is 7nm Why the leap from 14nm to 7nm took two years to achieve How SMIC 7nm compares with the TSMC 7nm variant After we revealed our initial findings on the SMIC MinerVa Bitcoin mining processor, our team did further analysis and comparison against TSMC 7nm. This new analysis confirms that despite current sanctions restricting access to the most advanced equipment technologies, Chinese Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corporation (SMIC) has used 7nm technology to manufacture the MinerVa Bitcoin Miner application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC). Our analysis also uncovered many similarities between the SMIC 7nm and the TSMC 7nm, which are available in our comparison brief.
