Chip density increase is slowing down. Since N10, density scaling has been 60-80%. N3 to N2 is only 20%. And now N2 to A14 is also only 20%.

I can’t believe we’re talking Angstroms already.

In simpler terms, the SRAM density improved by 2.9% (according to ChatGPT). Which is better than it sounds, because SRAM had reached a wall, in terms of density gains, and, chips can be dominated by SRAM in terms of surface area, so this can mean a lot more room for logic, even though that is also getting considerably denser.

Not sure what this source is, but it looks sketchy.

Whatever happened to the problem of electrons just hopping around since they are areas of probability rather than particles when you get small enough

Come on we're in the 21st century, UTF-8 is pervasive. Just call it "Å14" node.

No one seem to notice that TSMC has kept its timelines inspite if incredibly advance manufacuring,robotics,materials engineering,semi conductor engineering..and many more requirememts.

I think its a miracle.
