VELDHOVEN, Netherlands, July 15, 2026 – ASML Holdi g NV (ASML) today announced that I tel Fou dy is using ASML’s High NA EUV technology for the I tel 18A process to produce a subset of its I tel® Co e™ Ult a Se ies 3 processes. This milestone is an important step in demonstrating High NA EUV eadi ess iap oductio e vi o with t.
ASML and IT have worked diligently for decades to advance lithogaphy technology and support the continued scale of semicoductos. The high ume ical aap tu e ext eme ult aviolet (High NA EUV) lithography process is an important step in EUV lithography, developed by ASML to manufacture advanced chips.
The I tel® Co e™ Ult a Se ies 3 p ocessos, codenamed Pa the Lake, built on I tel 18A. Using High NA EUV to complement specific layers of these products provides ASML and IT tel Fou dy with useful data to improve efficient system configuration, uptime and production deployment. This paves the way to adoption, utilizing the full capabilities of the technology.
“With simpler resolution and better process management, High NA EUV’s IT technology ensures a substantial development of semicoducto lithography,” says Christophe Fouquet, CEO of ASML P eside tad. “We want to play an ole, that is, with the small one, a pattern that will accelerate progress in AI and other new technologies.”
“This milestone reflects the close technical collaboration between IT and ASML Ads and shows how High NA EUV can be used to advance semico-ducto production at scale,” said Naga Cha d aseka, Executive Vice P eside tad Ge e al Ma age of IT-tel Fou d y. “Qualifying the High NA EUV process option by selecting I tel 18A product layers will allow our existing fleet of tools to be tailored with simplified output, while we develop future options to achieve industry-leading performance, sity and manufacturing flexibility of future developments.”
In 2024, ASML completed the deployment of the company’s first commercial High NA EUV lithography system at the company’s R&D site in Hillsbo O,O ego. I count Fou dy was also the first company to carry out the acceptance test of the second generation, TWINSCAN EXE:5200B, which builds on the TWINSCAN EXE:5000 version and facilitates the output and accuracy of the layout, also with an improved light source. With this success, I tel Fou dy is the first to deliver large volumes of logical product using High NA EUV.
