Semiconductor Technology Nodes - History, Trends and Forecast
June 10, 2013
Semiconductor foundries claim they release a new technology node every two years. They may be off by a year or two, but on the whole, this is quite impressive, no doubt. Come to think of it, I don’t believe many of us even change our mobile phone every two years. How about ASIC developers – can they keep up with this pace? How long do semiconductor technology nodes remain and when do companies switch?
Let’s take a look at the semiconductor technology node history, analyze the trends and try to forecast the near future.
