Ngokusho kwabaphathi be-Intel, lapho imikhiqizo yokuqala ye-microprocessor giant 7nm iqala eminyakeni emibili, bazokwazi ngemikhiqizo engu-5nm evela eTaiwanese TSMC. Yebo, kodwa akunjalo. Imithombo yaseTaiwan ecaphuna abameleli abangaziwa bemboni yesiqhingi ukuthi ngo-2021 i-Intel kuzomele ibhekane nobuchwepheshe be-TSMC obuthuthukisiwe be-5nm. Lokhu kuzoba ubuchwepheshe benqubo ye-N5+ noma i-5 nm Plus - isizukulwane sesibili sobuchwepheshe benqubo ye-5 nm obuvela kumkhiqizi we-chip wenkontileka omkhulu kunawo wonke emhlabeni.
Njengoba wazi, njengoba abaphathi be-TSMC bekhumbuza njalo, inkampani yethule ukukhiqizwa okuyingozi ngamazinga we-5 nm engxenyeni yokuqala yalo nyaka. Ukukhiqizwa okukhulu okunamazinga angu-5 nm (5N). engxenyeni yokuqala noma yesibili ka-2020. Kunombono owodwa ngesikhathi esiqondile sokwethulwa kokukhiqizwa ngobuningi ngamazinga we-5 nm yi-TSMC. Ukuze usebenze ngalezi zindinganiso zobuchwepheshe, inkampani yakha isitshalo esisha - isitshalo se-Fab 18. Ngokushesha nje lapho i-Fab 18 isilungile. , singakhuluma ngokuqala kokukhiqiza ngamazinga angu-5 nm. Le nqubo ingase isuke ekupheleni kuka-2019 iye engxenyeni yesibili ka-2020. Kepha noma sithatha izinsuku zokugcina, i-TSMC izokwethula ukukhiqizwa kwezentengiselwano ngamazinga we-5 nm kungakapheli u-Ephreli-Juni 2020.
Kusukela kulokhu okungenhla kulandela ukuthi inkampani izoqala ukukhiqiza okuyingozi ngamazinga we-N5+ noma ubuchwepheshe benqubo ye-5nm obuthuthukisiwe engxenyeni yokuqala ka-2020. Umthombo usho lokhu ngqo. Ngemuva konyaka, inkampani izobe isilungele ukuqala ukukhiqizwa kwama-chips ngobuningi isebenzisa ubuchwepheshe benqubo ye-N5+. Yilobu buchwepheshe benqubo lapho i-Intel kuzodingeka iqhathanise izimpumelelo zayo zokukhiqiza lapho yethula amaphrosesa ayo okuqala e-2021nm discrete graphics ngo-7. I-AMD ne-NVIDIA, njengamakhasimende esikhathi eside e-TSMC, ngalesi sikhathi banawo wonke amathuba okukhulula womabili ama-GPU angu-5-nm futhi banezinhlelo zokwethula izixazululo zezithombe kubuchwepheshe benqubo ye-5-nm obuthuthukisiwe.
Kuze kube manje, akukho ongakusho ngobuchwepheshe benqubo ye-TSMC N5 +, ngaphandle kwento eyodwa. Le nqubo izosebenzisa izikena ze-EUV kancane. Ukujula kokusetshenziswa kwezikena ze-13,5 nm kuzocacisa ukuthi inqubo ye-N5+ ingcono kangakanani kunenqubo ye-N5.
