TSMC to produce Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 Chipset



Recent reports have revealed that Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. (TSMC) has been contracted to produce Qualcomm's latest chipset. Furthermore, the Snapdragon 855 is expected to be released in 2018.

"Qualcomm is engaging TSMC to roll out a modem chip very soon in the first half of 2018 and TSMC will manufacture the mobile giant's upcoming flagship Snapdragon processor, known as Snapdragon 855, before the end of next year", an industry official was quoted saying, as reported by Firstpost.

Further reports also revealed that TSMC will be producing the Snapdragon 855 with the latest 7nm technology. This is what the critics and experts recognized as a big blow to Samsung, who has been recently reported as unable to produce the chipsets for 2018. In the meantime, TSMC has worked with Qualcomm for a number of other chipsets as they are notably known for manufacturing Snapdragon 808 and 810. On the other hand, Samsung was tasked with the responsibility of manufacturing the Snapdragon 845, which is Qualcomm's latest, by using the 10nm process. Fans believe that this would be featured in the highly anticipated and upcoming Samsung Galaxy S9 and S9 Plus.
Aside from the reported contracted between Qualcomm and TSMC, reports also revealed that the company's 7nm process will also be used to manufacture Apple's A11 Bionic processor, which was first featured in the iPhone 8, 8Plus, and X. These chipsets were made using TSMC's 10nm process. As such, fans can expect the latest technology to be featured in next year's smartphones.


Qualcomm has yet to release a statement on the matter a TSMC has yet to respond to comment. However, considering that the rumoured release date for the upcoming smartphone flagships is nearing, fans are expecting to have more information on the Snapdragon 855 in the coming months. In the meantime, the Snapdragon 845 is expected to be unveiled for the Samsung Galaxy S9.

What is Cheat Codes in Video Games...?

Hello Friends .... Today we learn about  What is Cheat Codes in Video Games...? So let's Start.... Cheating in video games involves a video game player using non-standard methods to create an advantage or disadvantage beyond normal gameplay, in order to make the game easier or harder. Cheats may be activated from within the game itself (a cheat code implemented by the original game developers), or created by third-party software (a game trainer) or hardware (a cheat cartridge). They can also be realized by exploiting software bugs; this may or may not be considered cheating based on whether the bug is considered common knowledge. Cheat codes originated in the play testing phase of video game development where the creators want to test certain portions of the game. So there's codes intentionally put in to make that process easier, such as having a near-infinite amount of lives to progress through a difficult (even for its creators) game like Contra. Who finds the ch...

How Mobile Phones get Slower....?

Hello Friends .... Today we learn about   How Mobile Phones get Slower....? So let's Start.... If you’ve had your Android device for a while, you’ve probably started to notice some lag that wasn’t there before. Apps load a bit slower, menus take a bit longer to show up. This is actually (and unfortunately) normal—here’s why. This problem isn’t unique to Android, either—try using an older iPad with a new version of iOS and feel how slow it’s become. But the solutions are slightly different for each platform, so let’s talk about why this happens on Android—and how to fix it. Operating System Updates and Heavier Apps Require More Resources Your Android phone doesn’t have the same software it had a year ago (it shouldn’t, at least). If you’ve received Android operating system updates, they may not be as nicely optimized for your device and may have slowed it down. Or, your carrier or manufacturer may have added additional bloatware apps in an update, which run in the ba...

Hello Friends .... Today we learn about How Light Gun Works..? Duck Hunt Game Explained..!! So let's Start.... A light gun is a pointing device for computers and a control device for arcade and video games, typically shaped to resemble a pistol. In aviation and shipping, it can also be a directional signal lamp. Modern screen-based light guns work by building an optical sensor into the gun, which receives its input from the light emitted by on-screen target(s). The first device of this type, the light pen, was used on the MIT Whirlwind computer. The light gun and its ancestor the light pen are now rarely used as pointing devices due largely to the popularity of the mouseand changes in monitor display technology—conventional light guns work only with CRT monitors For many children of the '80s, a good portion of your childhood probably revolved around sitting too close to the TV, clutching a plastic safety cone-colored hand gun and blasting waterfowl out of a pi...
