TSMC Says ASML's Latest Chipmaking Gear Is Too Pricey

Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. will hold off on deploying ASML Holding NV's most cutting-edge lithography machines for chip production through 2029 to save money. The chipmaker has no plans to adopt ASML's latest high numerical aperture extreme ultraviolet lithography machines, or high-NA EUV, which fetch upwards of €350 million ($410 million) apiece. TSMC is ASML's largest customer, according to Bloomberg's supply chain data. Bloomberg's Neil Campling reports.
