TSMC's Fab20 P2 construction schedule for N2 may be delayed 2~3 quarters to 1H24

September 01, 2023

Key Takeaways:

TSMC's Fab 20 P2 construction for N2 technology faces potential delays due to uncertain customer demand and suboptimal performance.
The originally scheduled Fab 20 P2 construction for N2 in 3Q23 is now expected to be delayed to 1H24, potentially pushing the tool move-in schedule to Y2026.
TSMC's Fab 20 P1 capacity expansion may be slower than initially anticipated, with capacity revised down to 3-5K/m in Y2024 and 15-20K/m in Y2025.
