3D Transistors: Better Performance at Even Lower Power

Image
3D Transistors: Better Performance at Even Lower Power   Technology has progressed quite swiftly, since one of the greatest inventions-transistor, paving way for more powerful, cost-effective and energy efficient products. For the first time in history, silicon transistors have entered the third dimension with the Tri-Gate transistors. Read on to find out it's features, structure and how it benefits the new-age processors.   So what comes to your mind when you hear the word 'Intel'? Definitely, a manufacturer of all your celeron's, pentium's, dual cores, core i's, and other micro-processor chips, right? The pace dictated by Moore's Law has required numerous innovations and as a result of which the 'Sponsors of Tomorrow' introduced a three dimensional transistor technology, which is basically, Tri-Gate transistors on its 22 nm logic technology. Important Turning Point in Transistor Technology In 1947, the first transistor was demonstrated ...
