Technology: 3D transistor 22nm Intel

Assalamualaikum...
Intel perkenal 3D transistor untuk menyaingi kehebatan ARM dalam pasaran. ARM banyak digunakan dalam komputer tablet dan smartphone. Kehebatan ARM: power efficiency. Oleh itu, 3D transistor intel ini pun tidak kurang juga hebatnya.

3D Transistor

3D transistor adalah teknologi transistor dengan struktur yang baru. 
Ia juga dikenali sebagai Tri-Gate Transistor

3D transistor - 37% increase of performance

Taip panjang2 bukan nak faham pon kan.. Jadi tengok video drp intel ni. Harap-harap boleh membantu kefahaman anda.






"For years we have seen limits to how small transistors can get," said Gordon E. Moore.  "This change in the basic structure is a truly revolutionary approach, and one that should allow Moore's Law, and the historic pace of innovation, to continue." - Gordon E. Moore
"Intel's scientists and engineers have once again reinvented the transistor, this time utilizing the third dimension. Amazing, world-shaping devices will be created from this capability as we advance Moore’s Law into new realms." - Paul Otellini, Intel President and CEO
"The performance gains and power savings of Intel's unique 3-D Tri-Gate transistors are like nothing we've seen before. This milestone is going further than simply keeping up with Moore's Law. The low-voltage and low-power benefits far exceed what we typically see from one process generation to the next. It will give product designers the flexibility to make current devices smarter and wholly new ones possible. We believe this breakthrough will extend Intel's lead even further over the rest of the semiconductor industry." - Mark Bohr, Intel Senior Fellow
