:You are correct. They use a FinFET process (Intel's own [[14 nm]]), however, the 'technology' field in this case actually refers to the type of logic technology used (See [[Property:technology]]) such as CMOS, Bipolar, and ECL. For Loihi, Intel uses standard static CMOS cells, hence "CMOS". Hope that clarifies things a bit. --[[User:David|David]] ([[User talk:David|talk]]) 16:13, 26 November 2018 (EST)
