28 nm lithography process
(Redirected from TSMC 28 nm)

The 28 nanometer (28 nm) lithography process is a half-node semiconductor manufacturing process used as a stopgap between the 32 nm and 22 nm processes. Commercial integrated circuit manufacturing using 28 nm process began in 2011. This technology superseded by commercial 22 nm process.
