Paradigm Shift in Semiconductor Industry-September 8, 2014 |
28nm: Clearly the Last Node of Moore's Law for Most Designs
In our blog 28nm – The Last Node of Moore's Law, we had pointed out that the change has happened, and it is no longer a matter of forecast or prediction. In this blog we will start by reviewing some of what has transpired since that blog, and then focus on the ensuing paradigm shift in the semiconductor industry.
The following chart was presented in the IEEE IITC workshop by Globalfoundries. It illustrates the cost impact of the double patterning required for scaling below 28/22 nm.
