Intel's Cannon Lake (10 nm) delayed
LONG time coming. Samsung is making 10 nm stuff, but Intel claims their
10 nm is denser than Samsung's. It seems Intel, AMD, Samsung have different definitions of nm lithography. So far, there is a mobile i3. I await something with more grunt. Running Skylake-X on sustained AVX-512 will almost melt your fans and blow your fuses. I am hoping that Cannon Lake can do the job with a little less power. |

I am hoping that Cannon Lake can do the job with a little less power. The node definition is a bit disingenuous. If you do the area calcs and compare areas and dimensions, the "node name" doesn't seem to mean a lot. https://semiengineering.com/a-node-by-any-other-name/ http://semiengineering.com/wp-conten...8.04.42-AM.png You can see pictures of trigate finfets here. One of the things Intel did after the PressHot era, was to add a feature to its transistors, so "low performance" portions of the chip could have their totem pole leakage current gated off. The Prescott wasted about 25% of the DC power going into it as heat. Later transistor redesigns, reduced that leakage. https://www.researchgate.net/publica...metal-gate_CPU I don't think you should expect any miracles on power. In case you hadn't noticed, AMD is trying to "sneak up" on Intel, with this years Ryzen version. They're shooting to outdo one another on clock. And this means Intel will be pushing power to the wall (the platform limit), to shove AMD aside. Only wimpy laptops will be able to gain some battery life, from the latest lithography. Paul |
