Succession

Alder Lake (ADL) is Intel's successor to Tiger Lake, a 10 nm microarchitecture for mainstream workstations, desktops, and mobile devices.

Process Technology

Intel is planning Alder Lake to be built on an improved Intel 7 node (previously 10nm Enhanced SuperFin (ESF)). This will be the case for both the powerful Golden Cove cores, and Gracemont cores.

History

In January 2021 Intel teased Alder Lake in their CES 2021 speech.
