Want to know the three lessons for GLOBALFOUNDRIES from its 28nm high-K, metal-gate development?
Yesterday, I attended the Global Technology Conference, a chip-making extravaganza underwritten by GLOBALFOUNDRIES and its partners. Got several blog posts to write about this information-packed day but thought I’d start with the three lessons that GLOBALFOUNDRIES learned from its 28nm … Continue reading
Is 28nm really here? Now? When?
Last week at the Gartner Semiconductor Briefing held at the Doubletree Hotel in San Jose, Gartner Research Director Sam Wang presented a forecast for the way new IC process technologies will diffuse into the manufacturing mix. The chart he presented … Continue reading
