Disputing news that came out earlier this week about the 40nm yields from TSMC dropping from 60% to 40%, claiming that the yields have not been effected.
AMD, Nvidia and others are impacted. In response to the reports, TSMC officials said: ”The 40-nm yield didn’t drop as reported. As a matter of fact, yield on the 40-nm process remained flat. TSMC is confident that the 40-nm yield will improve at the beginning of next year.”
Of course, 60% still isn’t a great yield.
