https://semiengineering.com/racing-to-107nm/For those who migrate beyond 16nm/14nm, it will require deep pockets. In total, it will cost $271 million to design a 7nmchip, according to Gartner. In comparison, it costs around $80 million to design a 16nm/14nm chip and $30 million for a 28nm planar device, the research firm said.
Besides cost, foundry customers face other challenges, as they must weigh the various and confusing options from chipmakers. Here are the latest roadmaps among the foundries:
• Intel will ramp up 10nm finFETs by year’s end, with 7nm and 5nm in R&D.
• TSMC is shipping 10nm, with 7nm in risk production.
• Samsung is shipping 10nm, with plans to develop 8nm, 7nm and 6nm.
• GlobalFoundries skipped 10nm and is moving to 7nm.
