TSMC's next-generation A16 or 1.6nm process tech will be the start of its "Angstrom Era" journey, delivering improved performance/power profiles versus 2nm. Angstrom Era For TSMC - A16 Process Tech Offers Better Performance/Power Profiles Versus 2nm While Adding Backside Power At the 2026 VLSI symposium, TSMC will be presenting its A16 process node technology. A16 is part of TSMC's Angstrom era family of nodes, which includes A14 and the recently announced A13 & A12. In a preview provided by VLSI of the upcoming paper titled "T1.5", TSMC restates the performance/power profile advantages. One of the biggest features for A16 will […]

Major CPU manufacturers such as Intel, AMD & MediaTek are boosting their CPU production, but prices continue to rise. CPU Makers Boost Production, But This Won't Change Current Pricing Trends & Shortages Agentic AI demand has prompted a CPU shortage that has further led prices to increase. As demand swells, the GPU to CPU ratio has fallen from 8:1 to 4:1, and is on the path to hit 1:1 sooner or later. As processors continue to face supply constraints, multiple chipmakers are now boosting their production capacities. Supply chain sources indicate that after Intel decided to prioritize its limited production […]
