PB,

Re:"This is not the bottom. Again, this is a dumb shrink part. I would expect the mobile .18 designs to be even lower voltage. I may be wrong, have to wait and see."

Clearly the "dumbshrink" didn't work out too well.

Intels std 0.18 process was going to be 1.5V.

So this "mobile" 0.18 part is just from the std. process.

The performance at the "true" mobile voltage of 1.3V must have been abysmal for them to "jack" up the voltage to 1.5V and the performance still sucks as the chips only run at 400Mhz.

They have a lot of process development to do if they want to start shipping laptop chips at 600Mhz in 3-4 months as promised.

Regards,

Kash

PB or anybody else,

Can you summarize common features and/or differences between Intel's FLASH and logic 0.18u processes in a way that a layman can understand?

Kap.
