Rapidus, a chip startup supported by the Japanese government, may not be able to mass-produce high-end chips in 2028 as planned, according to sources familiar with the matter, as it has not yet been able to produce a key type of advanced memory. According to reports, Rapidus is currently unable to produce usable static random access memories, and advanced logic chips require hundreds of millions of embedded SRAM units. Furthermore, Rapidus must complete stable production of SRAM before this summer to produce 2nm chips on time. Engineers are under intense pressure to speed up progress, but failure to reach this technical milestone means the company is at least a few months behind schedule, according to people familiar with the matter. And major delays could jeopardize public support for Rapidus.
