    2013: 22nm -> ~50 silicon atoms
    2023: 3nm -> ~13 silicon atoms
    Prof Morello is pretty on point with his prediction with 2025 being ~5 silicon atoms within the space!

      2019 here!. Be carefull of the marketing terms used 11nm and such. It used to be that it was the international standard to name the next node to the channel length of the transistor. However, this is no longer the case. The result is that if you watch a 11nm chip under the SEM/TEM you will find that the channel length is actually 15nm or more and the increased speed comes from better architecture among other things. Having said that. The have achieved 7nm lines at least (already in the past) (I've seen the pictures) and are indeed busy with going even further. I do not know how far they are with the actual device making. 2years ago there were still some issues with CD uniformity (aka, consistent channel length and switching speed). Source: I work in the industry. Anyway, with the current way the industry works, add 5nm to the channel length. On the other hand. as I've already seen the 7nm lines, that means what moore's law will continue for some 6-8 years.

      Well, that would be true for almost every non-English-speaking country you visit, because it's not easy at all to grasp what a correct accent would sound like, or at least it isn't for a foreigner who hasn't learned English as a child (that's why in Italian schools English is a mandatory subject, and I believe that's true in almost every other European country aswell, but correct me if I'm wrong). Not to mention that there's no such thing as a "correct english accent". "Should I use an American accent or a British accent? Should I go for a southern/ hillbilly kind of accent, or a New Yorker? Should I sound like a Londonese or like a Scottish guy?". You see my point? Most of us just give up and speak as we normally would in our language, in some way that's the "easy route" :P

    @amojak 8 лет назад +3

    he describes the operation of an enhancement mode Field Effect Transistor (FET) , a depletion mode works in the opposite way and needs a negative charge on the Gate. The bipolar transistor is a different beast altogether and requires current into the Base , not voltage and has emitter/collector terminals Base = Gate , Source = Emitter , Drain = Collector.

    • @Rcvliegen
      @Rcvliegen 8 лет назад +1

      +amojak you are completely correct. This is a FET. A bipolar "or normal" transistor works on current, not on voltage difference.
