Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corporation (HKEX: 0981; SSE: 688981; founded 2000; headquartered Shanghai) is China's largest and most advanced semiconductor foundry. SMIC is effectively blocked from acquiring EUV lithography equipment by Dutch export controls (enforced since 2019 at US pressure), limiting SMIC's advanced node capabilities. SMIC achieved a '7nm-equivalent' process (N+2) using DUV (deep ultraviolet) multi-patterning — found in Huawei Mate 60 Pro's Kirin 9000s chip (September 2023, shocking Western intelligence analysts). However, SMIC's DUV-based 7nm has significantly lower yields and higher cost than TSMC/Samsung EUV 7nm, limiting competitiveness. SMIC cannot access 5nm or below without EUV. Revenue: $8.03B (2023). SMIC is on the US Entity List (December 2020) — restricting US equipment and software exports.
