This video will talk about another semiconductor player, and probably the most important, ASML (NASDAQ: ASML) . We're going to have a look at its recent earnings report and what it's doing. This is the fourth semiconductor I've covered this month. We went over the comeback Intel is making , how AMD climbed the semiconductor ladder , and why Nvidia will join the trillion-dollar club .
iPhones have chips that are designed by Apple and manufactured by TSMC , which uses ASML's systems. So what do these machines actually do?
Think of them as printers, very expensive printers. Each chip has many layers, and the EUV machine "prints" these layers. It takes around three to four months to build such a machine and about 100 or 150 people to assemble it and teach how it works.
