C114讯 7月28日消息（苡臻）今日，马斯克在个人社交平台上确认与三星已达成165亿美元协议，后者 将为特斯拉生产半导体。 据可靠消息，三星所生产的芯片的主要用途是为特斯拉电动车提供高性能自动驾驶芯片和AI计算模 块，将涵盖下一代FSD系统和Optimus机器人所需算力。 马斯克在X上发帖称："三星在德克萨斯州巨型新工厂将制造特斯拉的下一代AI6芯片。其战略重要性怎 么强调都不为过。"并称"台积电将先在台湾生产刚刚设计完成的AI5芯片，然后在亚利桑那州生产。" 三星的芯片业务（即设备解决方案部门）涵盖存储芯片、系统大规模集成电路（System LSI）和代工部 门。其中，存储芯片业务贡献了芯片总营收的约四分之三，LSI 部门则负责逻辑芯片设计。 值得一提的是，三星电子此前披露的第二季度财报显示，公司4月至6月营收达到74万亿韩元，营业利润 同比减少55.94%，为4.6万亿韩元。三星将其业绩不佳归咎于：负责芯片业务的设备解决方案（DS）部 门业绩持续低迷等影响，整体业绩低于预期。包括晶圆代工业务和系统LSI的非存储器部门和闪存芯片 （NAND）业务持续亏损等。 此外，三星电子于今日早些时候宣布，已签署价值1 ...
