In addition to NVIDIA, companies such as Apple, Google, Microsoft, AWS, Qualcomm, and Broadcom are also in talks with Intel for collaboration. Analysts believe that under the realities of political factors, supply chain resilience, and limited advanced packaging capacity at TSMC, major American chip manufacturers will inevitably initiate a dual-foundry strategy Following Apple, NVIDIA also plans to shift part of its chip manufacturing business to Intel's foundry. NVIDIA's Feynman architecture platform, expected to launch in 2028, will collaborate with Intel, marking the latest case of American tech giants adjusting their supply chain strategies under the "Made in America" goal promoted by the Trump administration. According to a report by DIGITIMES on Wednesday, **supply chain insiders revealed that NVIDIA will adopt a "small volume, low-end, non-core" collaboration strategy in its partnership with Intel.** The GPU core chips will still be manufactured by TSMC, while the I/O chips will partially use Intel's 18A process or the 14A process scheduled for mass production in 2028, with advanced packaging ultimately done by Intel's EMIB. **In terms of advanced packaging share, Intel accounts for about 25%, while TSMC accounts for about 75%.** This shift reflects the necessity for American tech companies to move from a highly concentrated model focused on TSMC to a new strategy of "multi-source supply and risk diversification" under political pressure, tariff threats, and supply chain resilience considerations. In addition to NVIDIA and Apple, companies such as Google, Microsoft, AWS, Qualcomm, Broadcom, AMD, and Tesla are also in talks with Intel for collaboration. Although some orders are being diverted to Intel, the industry believes that this is "more beneficial than harmful" for TSMC, as it helps alleviate monopoly concerns and political pressure, while TSMC remains confident in securing large orders for high-end chip foundry services. ## NVIDIA's Feynman Architecture Partially Shifts to Intel After announcing a $5 billion investment in Intel in September 2025, NVIDIA's latest plan is to collaborate with Intel on the next-generation successor to the Rubin series, the Feynman architecture chip. According to supply chain sources, the GPU core chips will still be manufactured by TSMC, while the I/O chips will partially use Intel's 18A or 14A processes, with the specific choice depending on the subsequent yield of the 14A mass production. Supply chain insiders indicated that under the establishment of the "Made in America" goal and tariff pressures during the Trump administration, major American chip manufacturers had already discussed collaboration with Intel, but due to the 18A process not meeting customer expectations, the collaboration timing should align with the 14A process scheduled for mass production in 2028. Intel's CEO Pat Gelsinger recently stated that two customers are currently evaluating the specific details of the 14A process. Compared to the higher risks associated with the introduction of the 14A and 18A processes, most companies are starting their collaboration with Intel through advanced packaging EMIB first. Supply chain analysts noted that the "Made in America" goal faces challenges in cost and yield, **but under the realities of political, supply chain resilience, and TSMC's limited advanced packaging capacity, American chip manufacturers are bound to initiate a dual-foundry strategy.** ## Apple Restarts Collaboration with Intel for Entry-Level Processors The collaboration product that Apple has been negotiating with Intel for some time is likely the "entry-level M series processors" used in MacBooks, which are currently manufactured by TSMC. Apple's Mac series has been using Intel's x86 processors since 2006, and Intel established a dedicated production line for it in its wafer fab in Oregon, USA, in 2005. In June 2020, Apple officially announced the launch of its Arm architecture chip "Apple Silicon," with all Mac series models transitioning to self-developed chips two years later. At that time, Apple's main considerations were to expand supply chain control and integrate its ecosystem, with another key factor being the potential impact of Intel's 10-nanometer process delays on the launch of new Mac models Supply chain operators reveal that the main reason Apple is restarting its collaboration with Intel after three years is still the manufacturing goals and tariff impacts driven by Trump, followed by factors such as cost, diversifying single-source manufacturing risks, and capacity shortages. ## TSMC's Three-Layer Strategy to Address Customer Diversion Currently, it is observed that Apple and NVIDIA are gradually adjusting with products that have the lowest outsourcing risks. Other companies negotiating cooperation with Intel include Google, Microsoft, AWS, Qualcomm, Broadcom, AMD, and Tesla, as well as the U.S. government contracts with the highest degree of control. However, whether Intel can meet the demands of technology leaders who are already accustomed to TSMC's model remains uncertain. For TSMC, it has anticipated that many customers will shift to Intel for wafer production, but analysts believe that the actual "benefits far outweigh the drawbacks," with at least three strategic considerations: **First, it can reduce monopoly and regulatory concerns; second, it can alleviate political pressure from the U.S.; third, the spillover is merely "non-core" orders, which helps with future bargaining and supply.** On one hand, this alleviates concerns about TSMC's excessively high market share in the wafer foundry industry potentially involving antitrust laws; on the other hand, moderately releasing non-core orders can also reduce pressure from the Trump administration's various demands. Furthermore, TSMC remains confident in securing major high-end chip foundry orders from major manufacturers. Perhaps customers who have tried shifting orders to other foundries will miss the advantages of TSMC, which will give TSMC a better position in future bargaining and supply ### Related Stocks - [NVDA.US - NVIDIA](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/NVDA.US.md) - [SMH.US - VanEck Semiconductor ETF](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/SMH.US.md) - [FTXL.US - First Trust Nasdaq Food & Semicon](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/FTXL.US.md) - [GGLL.US - Direxion Daily GOOGL Bull 2X Shares](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GGLL.US.md) - [AAPU.US - Direxion Daily AAPL Bull 2X Shares](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/AAPU.US.md) - [NVDU.US - Direxion Daily NVDA Bull 2X Shares](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/NVDU.US.md) - [GOOGL.US - Alphabet](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GOOGL.US.md) - [NVDL.US - GraniteShares 2x Long NVDA Daily ETF](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/NVDL.US.md) - [07788.HK - XL2CSOPNVDA](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/07788.HK.md) - [07388.HK - XI2CSOPNVDA](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/07388.HK.md) ## Related News & Research | Title | Description | URL | |-------|-------------|-----| | 黄仁勋预告 “前所未见” 的芯片新品，下一代 Feynman 架构或成焦点 | 黄仁勋预告今年的 GTC 大会上发布” 世界从未见过” 的全新芯片产品，分析认为新品可能涉及 Rubin 系列衍生产品或更具革命性的 Feynman 架构芯片，市场预期 Feynman 架构将针对推理场景进行深度优化。 | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/276310964.md) | | 谷歌高层回应 AI 泡沫质疑：这是工业革命，但速度快 10 倍、规模大 10 倍 | 谷歌 CEO 在印度 AI 峰会上透露谷歌云积压订单已翻倍至 2400 亿美元，以此证明高额资本开支的合理性。DeepMind CEO 预测实现通用人工智能至少仍需 5-10 年。谷歌高层一致认为，AI 将从根本上改变中小企业和科学研究的工 | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/276440500.md) | | 学习英伟达刺激芯片销售，AMD 为 “AI 云” 借款做担保 | AMD 为扩大市场份额祭出金融 “狠招”！为初创公司 Crusoe 的 3 亿美元购芯贷款提供担保，承诺在其无客户时 “兜底” 租用芯片。这一复刻英伟达 “租卡云” 路径的策略虽能短期推高销量，但也令 AMD 在 AI 需求放缓时面临更大的 | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/276401504.md) | | 机构 “最超配” 闪迪，“最低配” 英伟达 | 据摩根士丹利最新的统计：“机构对美国大型科技股的低配程度是 17 年来最大的” 相比 2025 年 Q4 的标普 500 指数权重，“$NVDA 仍然是机构低配程度最大的大型科技股，其次是苹果、微软、亚马逊和博通，而存储巨头闪迪则是 “最超 | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/276289765.md) | | “硬件防御” 对冲 AI 焦虑，苹果与纳指相关性创 20 年新低 | AI 浪潮下，苹果因未深度卷入军备竞赛，与纳指相关性创 20 年新低，成为科技股动荡中的 “避风港”。在 AI 投资回报存疑及软件业面临颠覆的焦虑中，苹果凭借不易受冲击的硬件生态逆势突围。尽管存在估值偏高及增长放缓压力，其独特的 “AI 中 | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/276301841.md) | --- > **Disclaimer**: This article is for reference only and does not constitute any investment advice.
