Yousef - Re: "AMD hasn't settled on the low-k material it will be use, but barium-strontium-titanate (BST) and paraline compounds are candidates." AMD is claiming to be less than 1 year from "mass production" and they haven't even settled in on their Low K material ?? " Excellent observation, Yousef ! By the way - AMD made such a hoopla about Copper being the saving grace for AMD's advanced 0.18 micron process, don't you find it just a little bit "amusing" that AMD now is going to add a low-k dielectric in ADDITION to the copper? Question for AMDroids - why wasn't the Copper enough? Answer - see Intel's IEDM paper. Paul
