Samsung Foundry plans on raising the price to assemble chips by 15% to 20% during the second half of the year.
, it is Samsung that is joining the club. Samsung Foundry is the second-largest independent foundry in the world after TSMC. Both firms take chip designs made by other companies and build the chips. The two foundries will be the only ones shipping 3nm chips this year.
Depending on how complex a chip design is, Samsung plans on charging its customers 15% to 20% more to produce these components. Interestingly, chips that require older legacy nodes during production will be seeing a larger increase in pricing than those chips made using newer and more cutting-edge process nodes. The price increase would take place during the second half of this year.
The new report notes that some of Samsung's customers have already agreed to the higher pricing. Masahiro Wakasugi, Bloomberg Intelligence analyst said,"With costs rising on everything from power and equipment to materials and freight, this is an inevitable move for Samsung. Some customers may accept higher prices if they can get chips earlier than others."
