Intel's First 14nm Chip NOT an x86 Processor
Sometime early in 2013, Intel will tape out its first production chip for 14nm and it won’t be an x86 processor. It’s neither necessary nor prudent to lead with a new x86 processor when the one missing element that the mobile market desperately needs is nowhere to be found: an ultra low power 4G LTE chip that fits under the battery life envelope of smartphones and would be warmly received in tablets, ultrabooks and notebooks as well. Intel’s Eye on the Mobile Tsunami Prize is within reach once its Trigate process is ramped. More importantly the 4G LTE chip will serve as the Tip of the Spear dragging in the Atom processor and graphics solution at a lower power and better economics than what the ARM camp has on the drawing boards.
