Just recently, Qualcomm agreed to purchase an additional $4.2 billion worth of semiconductor chips from the New York factory of Global Foundries, a semiconductor foundry company, which will bring its total purchase amount to $7.4 billion by 2028.

In fact, this additional purchase transaction expands the previous agreement between Qualcomm and GlobalFoundries worth 3.2 billion dollars. The two companies will jointly produce chips for 5G transceivers, WiFi, cars and the Internet of Things.

As we all know, lattice core plays a very important role in semiconductor ecosystem. Over the years, the company has always been a major supplier of AMD, producing advanced semiconductor chips for AMD. However, in 2018, the company abandoned its plan to develop 7nm technology to compete with Samsung and TSMC. This decision ultimately cost AMD quite a lot of business, but allowed it to focus on more diversified process technologies, which are targeted at areas that do not require cutting-edge silicon, including radio communications, imaging, optics, automotive, industry and the Internet of Things.
