What just happened? Researchers from the Vienna University of Technology have developed an adaptive transistor designed to provide more flexibility during run-time. The revolutionary new transistor ...

If we remember late last year, AMD had talked about the transistor count in their then-released Bulldozer chip, which was meant to house 2 billion transistors, but actually only had 1.2 billion. How a ...

Montecito exceeds the billion-transistor count because the Itanium-2 processor architecture is itself complex — a 64-bit processor intended for server applications — and the Montecito model ...

Modern CPU transistor counts are enormous -- AMD announced earlier this month that a full implementation of its 7nm Epyc "Rome" CPU weighs in at 32 billion transistors. To this, Cerebras Technology ...

NeoLogic Ltd., a startup that hopes to make processors more efficient by reducing their transistor counts, has raised $10 million in funding. The company announced the Series A round today. It ...

As TSMC and Intel head closer to direct competition discussions of transistor density and die size have become increasingly contentious. Such comparisons, however, are fatally flawed. Share on ...

A modern processor, whether it powers a toaster or a supercomputer, is made up of building blocks known as transistors. Generally speaking, companies that develop transistors aim to do two things with ...

TSMC has already started volume production of its next generation 7nm process; the first to incorporate its advanced EUV tech, and the node which should form the basis for AMD's Zen 3 processors next ...

LONDON — Intel Corp. has started sampling an Itanium-2, 64-bit microprocessor that was made by linking together 1.72 billion transistors. The processor, codenamed Montecito, was discussed as far back ...
