Slide 9 - Foundry Model Advantage
IDM (Integrated Device Manufacturers) Own fabs, produce own designs Examples: Intel, Samsung Higher capital costs, less flexibility
Pure-Play Foundry (TSMC) Manufactures for fabless companies No own designs, specialized $9.3B Fab15; future fabs ~$20B Enables fabless like AMD, Apple, Nvidia
