Intel Announces Chip Shrinking Milestone

Mon Aug 30, 6:23 PM ET

The Santa Clara, Calif.-based company said Monday it has created a fully functional 70 megabit memory chip with transistor switches measuring just 35 nanometers — about 30 percent smaller than those found on today's state-of-the-art chips.

In fact, chips built with the current 90 nanometer process technology saw several delays from many chip manufacturers as they struggled with issues such as heat and power dissipation.

For its next generation chips, Intel said it incorporated new materials and other technologies to work around the problems.
