如果您希望可以时常见面，欢迎标星收藏哦~ 芯片行业对高性能有着"永不满足的渴望"。 在去年年底的IEDM大会上，台积电的 2 纳米逻辑平台演示成为一大亮点。 台积电N2 开发团队负责人 Geoff Yeap 在 IEDM 座无虚席的观众面前强调了该代工厂 N2 平台的每瓦 性能。Yeap 代表 60 多位 2 纳米平台论文的合著者表示："技术进步不仅仅关乎性能。它关乎节能计 算，这是移动、AI PC 和 AI 处理的关键支柱。" 台积电在 2 纳米节点采用纳米片晶体管，取代自 16 纳米节点以来采用的基于 FinFET 的晶体管。 NS 平台"以预计成本"满足所有全节点 PPA（功率、性能和面积）扩展指标。与之前的节点相比，速度 提高了 15%，功率提高了 30%，面积提高了 1.15 倍。Yeap 表示，随着风险制造的进行，2 纳米技术 将在 2025 年下半年投入大批量生产。 需求显然存在。 "自 2023 年第一季度生成式 AI 突破以来，AI 与 5G 先进移动和 HPC 一起点燃了整个行业对一 流先进节能逻辑技术的无限需求，"Yeap 表示。 NanoFlex 是台积电的术语，指的是混合针对性能、功 ...
