TSMC

The pure-play foundry that fabricates the majority of the world's most advanced logic chips, concentrated in three Taiwanese science-park clusters that depend on imported energy and continuous power.

No financials and no forecasts. A record carries what a published source states about an organisation, its published facilities and its dated claims, with each claim kept apart by kind. Nothing here is a view on any company.

What this organisation is

TSMC held about 73 per cent of the pure-play foundry market by revenue in Q2 2026, and processes at 7 nm and below accounted for roughly 74 per cent of its wafer revenue in Q1 2026 — a statement about how advanced its own mix is, not about anyone else's capacity. Its leading-edge lines sit in the Hsinchu, Taichung and Tainan clusters this module publishes as markers. The company's overseas capacity is the largest single test of whether that concentration can be reduced: an announced Arizona investment of $265bn covering six logic fabs, two advanced-packaging facilities and an R&D centre, of which the first fab has run high-volume N4 production since the fourth quarter of 2024 and the second, on N3, targets volume production in the second half of 2027.

The organisation whose geographic concentration makes a regional security dispute a global economic file. Vigil records no percentage for the share of sub-7 nm capacity physically on Taiwan: the published company figures do not support the conversion, and the gap is stated rather than estimated.

Published facilities

Each is a marker the module already publishes; the relationship is this record’s own claim, with its own grade and source.

Dated claims — announced against delivered

Each claim carries its own kind. Nothing here is summed, and an announcement never counts as output.

Ce qui reste inconnu

  • The proportion of the world's sub-7 nm capacity physically on Taiwan is not published in a defensible form; the module states the concentration qualitatively and attaches no percentage.
