Elmer - Re: " I would think that 7-800Mhz is within the capability of the .18u process. Perhaps Paul or Yousef know better." I believe Intel has let it be known that 667 MHz devices - Coppermine and/or Cascades - will be available by Q4 of this year. Both of these will be 0.18 micron products. That should translate into faster, >700 MHz, parts by early 2000. Paul

Elmer, Re: "I would think that 7-800Mhz is within the capability of the .18u process. Perhaps Paul or Yousef know better." Yes Elmer ... 7-800mhz is well within reach of Intel's .18um process. Intel presented a paper at IEDM that described an SRAM (yield test vehicle) that ran at 900mhz. For comparison, the 4mb SRAM used for Intel's .25um process ran at 350-400mhz. Thus I believe that Intel's .18um process will go ABOVE 900mhz in the future. Make It So, Yousef
