SMIC 14nm was China's first homegrown FinFET, architected by Liang Mong Song and built for Huawei, proving SMIC could do leading-edge engineering at last.
Intel 10nm arrived four years late after the 14nm purgatory, and in the delay TSMC passed Intel for good. The node where Intel lost…
Samsung 7nm EUV produced the Exynos 9825, the first commercial chip built with extreme ultraviolet lithography, as Samsung raced TSMC into the EUV era.
TSMC's 7nm node shipped the first 7nm chip in the A12, anchored AMD's comeback against Intel, and watched GlobalFoundries quit the leading edge, leaving…
Qualcomm spent its summit in Maui this week talking less about how fast the Snapdragon 845 is and more about what it can think…
Xiaomi shipped 9.2 million phones in India in a single quarter and just passed Samsung to become the country’s number-one smartphone brand. Samsung. In…
TSMC's 10nm node shipped the Apple A11 in volume while Intel's 10nm stalled, the moment the leading edge you could actually buy moved to…
Samsung 10nm built every Snapdragon 835, the year Samsung spun out its foundry as a standalone division and tried to outrun the chipgate reputation.
Qualcomm's Snapdragon 835, the first 10nm mobile processor, coincides with its 5G modem announcement and partnership with Microsoft for Windows on Snapdragon laptops, signaling…
SMIC 28nm reached volume in 2015, four years late after a long yield struggle, just as the leading edge moved to FinFET and left…
TSMC's 16nm FinFET delivered the first 3D transistor the 20nm shrink withheld, drew level with Intel on structure, and split the Apple A9 with…
Samsung 14nm FinFET shipped before TSMC's 16nm, powering the Galaxy S6's Exynos 7420 and winning back Qualcomm and a share of Apple's A9.
TSMC's 20nm node won the Apple A8 but proved planar scaling had stalled: double patterning made it costly with no power win, and 16nm…
Intel 14nm arrived late in Broadwell, the first schedule slip in a decade. The node was still the best in the world, but the…
