Intel says it has developed an 80-core microprocessor chip that could enable PCs and chip-enabled devices to perform Teraflop level computing. The company will offer more details of its research in a series of scientific papers at the annual Integrated Solid State Circuits Conference this week in San Francisco. ...

Kelin Kuhn is the 45 nanometer device group manager. She runs one of Intel’s most important test labs where Intel figures out what needs improvement. Intel’s profitability rests on her shoulders because if a fab isn’t yielding enough good chips per wafer, Intel will make a lot less money. ...

You might think Moore’s Law comes with an ancillary set of steps on how to adhere to it. The Law essentially says that technology develops so swiftly that chip engineers can pack twice as many transistors on a piece of silicon every two years. Performance jumps dramatically but the business ...

In this PodTech. net exclusive interview, Intel scientists say they’ve completed a big step toward manufacturing the smallest and fastest chips yet. Researchers have built a working Static Random Access Memory chip using 45-nanometer process technology.

The breakthrough is expected to lead to better PCs and laptops, but it will ...
