ASML is the only company making the $200 million machines needed to print every advanced microchip. Here's an inside look

ASML's dominance is a relatively new phenomenon. A decade ago, the company's ability to research EUV was decided by major investments from Intel, Samsung and TSMC.

ASML started out as a subsidiary of Dutch electronics giant Philips in 1984. It launched its first machine for semiconductor lithography — which had been invented in a U.S. military lab in the 1950s — out of a leaky shed next to a Philips office building in Eindhoven, the Netherlands. ASML's developed its first lithography system in 1984, in a leaky shed outside a Philips office building in Eindhoven, the NetherlandsBy 1988, ASML had five U.S. offices with 84 employees and a new Dutch office in Veldhoven that eventually became its headquarters. CNBC got an exclusive tour of that facility in March.

Only for great thinkers

it's the only company making machines of such kind *at this price*.

Semiconductor is the new GOLD

Boycott Tesla

The Japanese, S Koreans and Americans can make DUV systems. ASML is unique that it's the only company in the world capable of making the EUV systems.

If it's powering entire industries how it would be worth only 150-200 million dollars, I mean it's cheaper than a Boeing 747.

$ASML Has a great business! Companies like Intel and TSM fight over their products.

Hey CNBC how many $200 Million machines are in USA？
