TAIPEI : Taiwanese chipmaker TSMC said on Thursday that while war in Ukraine has impacted the company's costs, customers need not worry about the impact being passed on in price hikes.
TSMC is the world leader in manufacturing advanced chips used in technology from smartphones to data centres. Two Ukrainian suppliers, which produced about half the world's supply of semiconductor-grade neon, halted operations last year. While TSMC said last month that it expects growth in the global chip market this year, excluding memory chips, to decline in the mid-single digit percentage range year on year, the company's dominance in making advanced chips for high-end customers such as Apple has shielded it from a broader industry downturn.
