But it’s clear that foundries no longer see 10nm as a major process node from a demand perspective, according to numerous industry sources. They are pushing to 7nm finFETs, regardless of what that ...

In the wake of the two semiconductor titans clashing, a debate between the merits of 14nm++ and 7nm has sprung up with ... comes from the switch to the FinFET process. While older planar ...

At the high-end, TSMC will shortly ramp its 10nm finFET process. Separately, the company is readying its 7nm finFET process, with initial tape outs slated for May. Then, as expected, TSMC is working ...

SAN JOSE, Calif., 01 Oct 2018 -- Cadence Design Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: CDNS) today announced its continued collaboration with TSMC to certify its design solutions for TSMC 5nm and 7nm+ FinFET process ...

The announcement came in the same week as Samsung gave a detailed look at its 7nm process at the VLSI Symposia ... as opposed to the more conventional FinFET (fin field-effect transistor) design.

and the rumored extension of 7nm into 2026 leaves it serving for five years as its leading-edge process node, an eternity in chip manufacturing. Huawei's Ascend AI chips recently saw a third ...
