Samsung and TSMC to Share Orders for Smaller 14/16nm Apple A-Series Processors

Samsung and TSMC will share orders for smaller next generation Apple A-series processors.
Samsung is said to have signed a contract to produce the processors for 2015 using a 14/16nm FinFET process.
Samsung will use its 14nm FinFET process to manufacture a portion of the A-series chips for Apple's 2015 iPhone series, and the remainder of the chips will be built using TSMC's 16nm FinFET technology, the sources indicated. TSMC should land 60-70% of Apple's total 14/16nm chip orders, with the remaining 30-40% to be taken over by Samsung, the sources said.
