Perhaps Jay will add SVGI to his list as one of its customers commits to begin migration to 0.18µ within 4 months and complete the conversion by the middle of next year. Thats a lot of Micrascan-IIIs. Here's hoping Papken was telling the truth when he said he could deliver 218 scanners a year. ;-) February 22, 1999 Intel To Begin Conversion To 0.18-Micron Tech In 2nd Half Dow Jones Newswires SAN FRANCISCO -- Intel Corp. (INTC) said Monday it plans to begin its conversion to 0.18-micron technology for its microprocessors in the second half. In a presentation at the BankBoston Robertson Stephens Technology Conference here, Intel Vice President Mike Aymar said all its microprocessors will be at the 0.18-standard by the middle of 2000. Aymar said the company's new Pentium III 550 Mhz processor will be available for servers in April and desktop PCs in May. The chip maker reiterated it plans to spend $3 billion in research and development this year and another $3 billion in capital enhancements. Meanwhile, Texas Instruments Inc. (TXN) reiterated during its presentation that it should post sequential revenue growth in its semiconductor business in the first quarter and overall "modest" growth this year. Texas Instruments Senior Vice President John Scarisbrick said the company's goal is to be the market leader in both digital signal processors and analog markets. Scarisbrick projected the DSP market to growth by 25%-40% through 2002.
