siliconstrategies.com TI and Sun rule out SOI wafers, but push copper, CVD-based low-k for RISC chips With 900-MHz UltraSparc III ready, the two partners set targets for next-generation technologies By J. Robert Lineback Semiconductor Business News (07/31/01 08:45 a.m. EST) DALLAS -- Several months later than originally planned, Texas Instruments Inc. has qualified a 900-MHz 64-bit RISC processor, with copper and low-k interconnects, for volume shipment to Sun Microsystems Inc., which will now use the central processing units in workstations within the next 90 days (see July 30 story). The new UltraSparc III is TI's first all-copper, low-k processor and the latest step towards 64-bit RISC chips that operate with speeds up to 1.5 GHz, according to a roadmap disclosed by Sun last year (see Sept. 27, 2000, story). The roadmap last fall showed the 900-MHz processors to be ready for products in the first quarter of 2001. Sun's roadmap showed a 2.1-GHz UltraSparc V being targeted for 2003..................
