GaN sector shifts as TSMC licenses technology to VIS and GlobalFoundries
TSMC is exiting direct GaN foundry services and instead licensing its GaN technologies to other foundries like VIS and GlobalFoundries. This shift allows TSMC to focus on higher-margin AI chip businesses while supporting the broader development of the rapidly growing GaN power device market, projected to reach $3.51 billion by 2030 due to demand from AI infrastructure and clean energy. VIS plans to begin mass production using TSMC's licensed processes by the first half of 2028, expanding its GaN-on-QST platform for various voltage applications.
