Samsung Foundry has announced that its 2-nanometer process node (SF2), which employs a Gate-All-Around (GAA) architecture, has attained stable yields and is now primed for mass production. Although whispers in the industry suggest a yield rate hovering around 50%, Samsung has already embarked on large-scale production of the Exynos 2600 application processor using this cutting-edge process. This chip is set to act as a ‘proof-of-concept’ for the SF2 process and is anticipated to make its debut in the forthcoming Galaxy S26 and S26+ models. Previously, Samsung had kicked off mass production of the Exynos 2600 in September 2025, reporting no critical defects at the outset and a marked improvement in yield performance compared to its preceding 3nm process. At present, Samsung is aiming for a 70% yield rate for its 2nm process, with its Mobile Experience (MX) division intending to incorporate this chip into 25% of Galaxy models. Furthermore, Chinese cryptocurrency mining equipment manufacturers Bitmain and Canaan have also placed orders for the SF2 process with Samsung.
