The European Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (ESMC) has broken ground on its €10bn chip fabrication plant in Dresden.

ASML rompe récord de pedidos por la IA, mejora su guía 2026 y sacude la Bolsa con EUV, High-NA, recompra de 12.000 millones y 1.700 despidos. ASML ha marcado el pulso del sector de chips con un parte ...

Europe makes history as Mistral AI raises a record €3 billion Series D on September 15, 2026, led by Samsung and backed by the EU, pushing its valuation past €21 billion. Simultaneously, ASML confirms commitments from TSMC, Samsung, and Intel to $350 million each for High NA EUV lithography systems critical for advanced AI transistor manufacturing. This dual breakthrough signals Europe's transition from AI skepticism to confident technological leadership. Tools used for generation Text Gemini Narator Azure TTS Clips Pexel Rendering Remotion

Ever wondered what’s inside the machine that powers every single thought your AI has? Think the sun is hot? ASML built a box that's hotter. In this episode, we’re tearing down the mystery of the High-NA EUV, the world's most complex machine that makes AI chips possible. For three decades, the smartest physicists said it was physically impossible. They were wrong. We dive into the unreasonable engineering required to vaporize molten tin with high-powered lasers just to print features with 5-atom precision. From the Angstrom Era to the ASML Monopoly, we explore why this Dutch company is the ultimate geopolitical chokepoint and the only reason Moore’s Law is still breathing. In this episode, we answer: - How does an EUV machine work? The physics of taming a sun in a box. - Why is ASML the only company that can do this? The secret roles of Zeiss SMT and TRUMPF. - What is the AI compute ceiling? Why 1.4nm nodes and sub-2nm scaling are the real limits of intelligence. Whether you're a hardware geek or a global strategist, this is the story of the 30-year war for the future of silicon. Don't get left behind in the pre-Angstrom past—hit that follow button and join the deep tech revolution! 🚀  

AMSTERDAM (Reuters) -Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co (2330.TW), the world’s largest contract chipmaker, is still assessing when it will use ASML (AS:ASML)’s cutting-edge high numerical aperture (NA) machines for its future process nodes, an executive said on Tuesday. Chipmakers are weighing when the speed and accuracy benefits of these nearly $400 million machines will outweigh the almost doubled price tag of what is already the most expensive piece of equipment in a chip fabrication plant. Asked if TSMC plans to use the machine for its upcoming A14, and enhanced versions of the future node, Kevin Zhang said the company hasn’t yet found a compelling reason. "A14, the enhancement I talk about, is very substantial without using High-NA. So our technology team continues to find a way to extend the life of current (Low-NA EUV machines) by harvesting the scaling benefit," he said at a press briefing. "As long as they continue to find a way, obviously we don’t have to use it," Zhang said. Rival Intel (NASDAQ:INTC) has planned to use the High-NA EUV machine in its future manufacturing process, known as 14A, in an attempt to revive its contract chip business and better compete with TSMC. However, Intel also says that customers will still have the option of using older and more proven technologies. During ASML’s last earnings report, CEO Christophe Fouquet said he expects customers to test High-NA for high-volume manufacturing readiness through 2026-2027, before they evaluate the tool on their most advanced nodes in a latter phase. So far, ASML has shipped five of the 180 ton, double-decker sized machine across the world to three customers, counting Intel, TSMC and Samsung (KS:005930). Is INTC truely undervalued? With INTC making headlines, investors are asking: Is it truly valued fairly? InvestingPro's advanced AI algorithms have analyzed INTC alongside thousands of other stocks to uncover hidden gems with massive upside. And guess what? INTC wasn't at the top of the list.
