Fujitsu plans to begin selling its MONAKA AI CPU in Japan, the United States and the Asia-Pacific region from 2027, marking its first full-scale external supply of advanced semiconductors. The company has agreed to supply U.S. server maker Super Micro Computer and is pursuing sales to major U.S. cloud companies. MONAKA is designed on a 2-nanometer process by Fujitsu and manufactured by Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. The chip is intended to improve computing performance relative to power consumption. Fujitsu aims to generate cumulative revenue of ¥250 billion, approximately $1.6 billion, by fiscal 2030 through CPU and related sales. It also plans to sell MONAKA-equipped AI servers and bundle CPUs and servers with AI development and operations platforms. Twenty-four companies, including financial and telecommunications firms, are testing the chip, while Fujitsu is discussing adoption with more than 40 companies and targeting sales of 60,000 AI servers. The initiative follows Fujitsu's effective withdrawal from in-house semiconductor production in the 2010s and reflects renewed Japanese industry ambitions amid surging AI demand. WSTS forecasts the global semiconductor market will reach approximately ¥240 trillion, or $1.6 trillion, in 2026, up 90% from the previous year. Fujitsu's fabless strategy leaves production dependent on TSMC's capacity and yields for its advanced 2-nanometer process.
