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 short, this helped create the 10nm mess.” Then, in 2018, TSMC shipped the world’s first 7nm finFET process. Later, Samsung shipped 7nm. (Intel’s 10nm is equivalent to 7nm from the foundries.) 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 ...

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 ...

thanks to new FinFET transistor optimizations. The second node is called Intel 4, which was previously referred to as Intel’s 7nm process, and it will go into processors that will enter ...

SAN JOSE, Calif. -- Marh 4, 2019 -- Cadence Design Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: CDNS) today announced early availability of the complete, silicon-proven Cadence ® Denali ® Gen2 IP for LPDDR5/4/4X in TSMC’s ...

The U.S. export controls imposed in 2022 require makers of fab tools to obtain an export license on equipment that could be used to make FinFET-based chips on 14nm/16nm-class process technologies.
