28nm Was Last Node of Moore's Law
August 29, 2016
The industry is at a crossroads: some designs pursue scaling to 7nm while the majority stay on 28nm or older nodes.
As we have predicted more than two years back, the industry is bifurcating, and just a few products pursue scaling to 7nm while the majority of designs stay on 28nm or older nodes.
Our 2014 blog 28nm — The Last Node of Moore's Law has now been confirmed. At the time we wrote: “After the 28nm node, we can continue to make transistors smaller, but not cheaper.” It is illustrated in the following slide, presented by Samsung at the recent Semicon West 2016.
