“Chip performance is moving to packaging, not process nodes, and Intel's Foveros hybrid bonding puts it at the center of that shift. Huawei's Kirin 2026 just proved that face-to-face wafer stacking with sub-1.5µm copper bonds rivals TSMC 3nm density without EUV, validating the packaging path that Intel, AMD, and Apple are all racing down. Intel just resolved its 18A yield issue and is ramping packaging services for Microsoft, Tesla, Qualcomm, and Nvidia.”
