Samsung and NVIDIA Join Forces to Build Advanced AI Chip Factory

Samsung has announced a landmark partnership with NVIDIA to build an advanced AI semiconductor factory. The project aims to integrate artificial intelligence across every stage of chip production, from design and process control to quality assurance. This fully intelligent, self-optimizing system will help speed up production, marking a new era of AI-driven manufacturing.

Over 50,000 NVIDIA GPUs to power Samsung’s AI chip factory

The new AI Megafactory will be powered by over 50,000 NVIDIA GPUs, embedding real-time AI analytics and automation throughout Samsung’s semiconductor ecosystem. The goal is to accelerate the development and production of next-generation chips, mobile devices, and robotics.

Samsung says the initiative will maximize synergy between its semiconductor expertise and NVIDIA’s AI platforms. It will set a new standard for efficiency and innovation in chipmaking. As part of the partnership, the company will supply NVIDIA with next-generation memory and foundry services, including HBM, GDDR, and SOCAMM.

The Korean firm has already begun sample shipments of HBM4. Built on 1c DRAM and 4nm logic processes, its upcoming high-bandwidth memory promises higher performance and energy efficiency. It currently provides HBM3E to several customers and is continuing to invest in facilities to meet growing demand for HBM4. The next-gen HBM solutions will play a key role in powering future AI workloads.

Samsung’s AI Factory will serve as an intelligent platform that connects and interprets data across chip design, production, and equipment operations. By leveraging NVIDIA’s cuLitho, CUDA-X, and Omniverse technologies, Samsung has already achieved a 20x improvement in computational lithography performance. This will reduce development and mass-production cycles while improving manufacturing quality and yield.

Samsung also plans to expand its AI Factory infrastructure to global production hubs, including its facility in Taylor, Texas. This will allow the company to create a connected, intelligent global supply chain. Additionally, it plans to support small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) by sharing AI-based manufacturing tools and data technologies.

With this agreement, Samsung and NVIDIA’s long-standing collaboration, spanning more than 25 years, now enters a new phase. Together, the two giants aim to push the boundaries of AI-driven semiconductor production. They have taken a major step in powering the next generation of chips, memory, and intelligent robotics that will define the future of computing.
