Samsung employees suspected of falsifying yield data

According to thematic publications, a major scandal involving current and former employees broke out at Samsung Electronics. It is alleged that these employees are involved in the falsification of information on the yield of suitable products in production according to the standards of 3, 4 and 5 nm. The falsification became known when, after the approval of these technical processes for the mass production of logic chips for Samsung itself, as well as for orders from third-party developers, the actual performance was lower than expected.

Counterfeiting can affect the entire supply chain. An internal investigation has already been launched into Samsung Device Solutions, a division that produces semiconductor products. The investigation includes a thorough financial audit of the production facility to determine if the investment in yield improvement was used correctly.
