Revision as of 17:16, 22 May 2017
This article details details Intel's Semiconductor Process Technology history for research and posterity. The table below shows the history of Intel's process scaling. Values were taken from various Intel documents including IDF presentations, ISSCC papers, and IEDM papers. Note that while a great deal of effort was put into ensuring the accuracy of the values, some numbers vary to a small degree between Intel's own documents and therefore discrepancies may exist. SRAM bitcell areas refer to a high-density 6T bitcell with the exception of the very first few processes where smaller cell designs were used. Additionally, the metal layer count is for the client dies (example consumer mobile & desktop); server models utilize considerably more layers.

SRAM Scaling
For Intel, from 2 µm to 10 nm, SRAM 6T bit cells have had an average shrink of 0.496x in an attempt to maintain Moore's Law double density observation/requirement. Note that SRAM shrunk more significantly prior to the 65 nm process node.
