Samsung Foundry is the world's second-largest contract chipmaker and the only credible alternative to TSMC for leading-edge chip production, competing at 3nm with its gate-all-around process. It serves as NVIDIA's secondary foundry for some GPU production and is investing heavily in a new fab in Taylor, Texas under the CHIPS Act. Yield challenges at 3nm have allowed TSMC to consolidate its lead, but Samsung remains essential as the only viable backup for the world's most advanced chips.
