Intel has launched a dedicated webpage showcasing its Intel 18A (1.8nm-class) fabrication process. While launching a website solely for a manufacturing process might seem unusual, especially since it primarily reiterates previously announced milestones, it's a strategic move for a company facing intense scrutiny from many sources, including investors, industry observers, …

In recent years, Apple has made the decision to move away from x86 processors from partners like Intel, instead choosing to develop its own ARM-based processors for Macs and MacBooks, with production/fabrication handled by TSMC. Apple will reportedly be one of TSMC's first customers for its new 2nm process node, …

During the IEEE International Electron Devices Meeting (IEDM) Future of Logic session, TSMC announced that their 1.4nm manufacturing process is already under development. Additionally, they reiterated that mass manufacturing using their 2nm-class fabrication technology is scheduled to begin in 2025. According to a graphic shared by Dylan Patel (via Tom's …

A few years ago, the first signs that Moore's Law wouldn't hold up started to show. Since then, the situation has improved, with chip manufacturers upgrading their designs using smaller nodes and different packaging techniques to improve their products. With Intel's latest advancements, Moore's Law will last for quite some …

TSMC continues to make advancements in process node technology. Swiftly following on from the N5 and N4 process nodes is the N4P, bringing further performance and efficiency enhancements to the 5nm node.  The N4P will offer an 11% performance boost over the N5 and a 6% boost over the N4. …

During its quarterly earnings call, TSMC gave an update on future process node technologies. As expected, it mentioned what advancements it has made in current and future process nodes. Besides the N7 and N5 nodes, TSMC also mentioned its N3 node and the enhanced version, the N3E. According to the …

We had big news from Intel this week, with the company unveiling its new process node roadmap and outlining plans to regain the process performance leadership crown by 2025. We've heard from Intel, now let's see what Leo thinks...

Today Intel has revealed its roadmap of process and packaging improvements, which will power the next several generations of Intel CPUs leading up to 2025 and beyond. This includes Intel's first new transistor architecture in more than a decade.

Both Intel and AMD have been using different standards to name their process nodes. At first glance, Intel's 10nm process node might seem inferior to TSMC's 7nm, leaving Intel looking like it has a less advanced node when both have a similar density. To avoid these comparisons, Intel is planning …
