Technology Challenges: Intel, IBM, Xilinx, GlobalFoundries, IMEC
January 15, 2014
I spent the day at the SEMI Industry Strategy Symposium in Half Moon Bay. The early part of the day was devoted to technology challenges. Obviously everyone did not say exactly the same things, and had a little bit of a different spin depending on what business they are in. But there was a lot of commonality between Intel, IBM, Xilinx and GlobalFoundries. There were also presentations by the Global450mm Consortium and from Handel Jones of IBS. I will cover what they said in separate blogs later in the week.
Firstly, everyone pretty much agrees that there are no insurmountable technical challenges getting to 7nm. We know how to do it. Or at least we know what we have to do to get there, and it is engineering rather than basic research.
