Understanding the nanometer technology: Why should you care?
Chipset manufacturers are focusing on narrower transistor fabrication technique. For an instance, Samsung's Exynos 8895 and Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 is a leap from 14 nm fabrication to the 10nm. Narrow fabrication technique definitely offers a larger number of transistors to accommodate in the same area. Is that is? All those chipset makers are focusing only on accommodating an increased numbers of transistors in the chipset? And what will be the complications regarding this technolog Qualcomm released its flagship chipset Snapdragon 835 and Samsung is going to bring new flagship phone Galaxy S8 with Exynos 8895 (also with Snapdragon 835 variant) chipset on it. Both the processors mentioned are designed in 10nm technology. MediaTek is also working with TSMC to bring out a chipset with 7nm fabrication. These are the smartphone processors. The computer chipset maker Intel and AMD are focusing on even smaller nanometer technology than the fore-mentioned ...
