TSMC to supply fingerprint sensors for next iPhone
Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company will reportedly manufacture fingerprint sensor for the next generation iPhones.
The manufacturing will take place at TSMC's 12-inch wafer fabs using 65nm process technology, according to a report in DigiTimes citing industry sources.
The fingerprint sensors used in the existing iPhone models are manufactured using TSMC's 0.18-micron process. And orders for the sensors used in these models demand 30'000-50'000 8-inch wafers a month, the sources told DigiTimes.
