A nanometer measures just one billionth of a meter, thousands of times times smaller than the thickness of a human hair. Something that minuscule seems like it would hardly matter, right? Well, those ...
IBM is heralding the return of Moore’s Law—the idea that the power of microchips will double every two years—with a new chip design that fits 50 billion transistors on a piece of silicon the size of ...
Big Blue got out of the chip foundry business when it sold off its IBM Microelectronics division to GlobalFoundries, itself a spinout of AMD, in 2014. The hope, no doubt, was that IBM could get out of ...
Moore’s Law, coined in 1965 by Intel’s co-founder Gordon Moore, predicts that the number of transistors on a microchip will double about every two years, while the cost continues to go down. That ...
Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. Ltd. has previewed a new chipmaking process that will facilitate the production of faster, more efficient data center processors. TSMC’s 1.6-nanometer process, ...
MediaTek Inc. expects a nearly 10% increase in annual revenue despite potential challenges in the second quarter, driven by ...
A new report claims that while Apple Silicon chips based on TSMC's 3nm processors will remain in shorter supply than usual, ...
Given the need to reduce the latency between components and to cram more and more circuits into a socket for compute engines ...
Samsung Electronics on Wednesday laid out its road map to expand its chip manufacturing business, including leading-edge chips, as it looks to catch up with leader TSMC. Samsung said it will begin ...
Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. Ltd. today began mass-producing processors based on its latest three-nanometer chip technology. Bloomberg reported the development this morning. TSMC is the ...
The semiconductor industry’s constant challenge is to make microchips that are smaller, faster, more powerful and more energy efficient — simultaneously. On Thursday, IBM (IBM) announced it has ...
