As we all know, as the most famous chip company in the world,IntelIt is really lagging behind in chip manufacturing technology, and it is only now that 10nm technology has been implemented, whileTaiwan Semiconductor ManufacturingSamsung has realized the manufacture of 5nm chips.
It is precisely because of Intel Corp's backwardness that life in intel this year is not easy.AMDAfter looking for Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co Ltd OEM, he stole a lot of intel market, and thenAppleTo launch the M1 chip, it is also necessary to replace intel.
It is against this background that recently some people said that Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corporation has achieved 14nm, and then the Nylon 1 process has reached a level close to 7nm. SMIC may even catch up with Intel Corp or even surpass intel.
So does Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corporation really want to catch up with Intel Corp or even surpass intel? In my opinion, it's really not. Don't underestimate the process of intel, let alone look at it from the process node.
First of all, let's talk about Intel Corp's 14nm process. According to one of the most recognized parameters in the semiconductor world, that is, transistor density, intel's 14nm process has reached 44.67MTr/mm ², that is, 44.67 million per square millimeter.
And the 14nm of SMIC, the transistor density is 30MTr/mm ², that is, up to 30 million per square millimeter, the same process.IntelThe density of the transistor is 1.5 times that of the core.
According to the online version of SMIC's 7nm 1, at most, it is close to Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co Ltd's 7nm process, or even less than that, according to the transistor density, it can at most reach the same level as Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co Ltd's 7nm, that is, 91.2MTr/mm ².
But Intel Corp's 10nm has already reached 100.76MTr/mm ², which is stronger than Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co Ltd's 7nm process.
So even if SMIC's Niss1 is realized, and at the same level as Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co Ltd's 7nm, it is not as good as intel's 10nm, not to mention that intel will be able to achieve 7nm next year. Intel Corp's 7nm is at the same level as Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co Ltd's 5nm.
In addition, in addition to the most authoritative logic density, the performance technology of the chip is also related to fin spacing, gate spacing, minimum metal spacing, logic unit height, chip frequency and other parameters.
So to tell the truth, the gap between SMIC and Intel Corp is really large, and it is not literally the so-called 10nm, 14nm, Nissan 1 can be shown.
