Foundries look to GAAFET for new process nodes beyond 3 nm
Moore's Law is almost dead on January 26, 2021, 16:24 Why it matters: The transition from planar transistors to FinFET was enough to keep Moore's Law relevant for the last 10 years, but even that design is running out of steam. Gate-all-around transistors look promising for 3 nm and beyond, but that transition could be the costliest yet. While most advanced chips today are manufactured on a 7 nm or 5 nm process node, large foundries like TSMC and GlobalFoundries have been busy developing newer nodes at 3 nm and 2 nm, based on next-generation, gate-all-around transistors ...
