The tie-up comes as global technology companies increasingly develop their own custom AI accelerators, rather than relying solely on general-purpose graphics processors, driving demand for specialised chip design and manufacturing partnerships. The next five years of collaboration will combine Broadcom's expertise in designing application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs), or chips for specific tasks, with Samsung's manufacturing capabilities.

SK Hynix and Samsung signed $950 billion in memory chip supply deals with Nvidia and Broadcom, marking a historic AI semiconductor partnership.

Samsung Electronics signed a $200 billion MOU with Broadcom covering HBM4 memory supply and 2nm foundry services for AI chips through 2030.
