Computex 2009: GlobalFoundries shows 45nm Istanbul, 32nm SOI, 28nm bulk

[news 28]

In Taiwan for the annual Computex convention, GlobalFoundries is meeting

with the local and international press to showcase some of the new and

upcoming technologies that will soon be offered to customers OTHER than

just AMD. We have some of the first images of the 45nm AMD Istanbul wafer

and die as well as 32nm test SOI and 28nm bulk wafers.

Quote: "After the introduction of the 32nm technology, GlobalFoundries will

release a 28nm technology tested and ready to go for taking orders in early

2010 with full-scale production later in the year. Compared to the 32nm

process, GF expects to see some significant power and size reductions on

28nm that could potentially really spotlight that particular process as the

target for GPU architectures going forward. 28nm technology will also be

the 3rd generation of immersion lithography and 2nd generation High-K metal

gate design."

 

Thanks for a post!
