One week of battery life? New stacking technology could cause a chip revolution
Stacking transistors shortens connections and saves energy. At the same time, it enables more performance in a smaller area. The idea is so simple that the question arises: Why only now?
IBM and Samsung presented a new technology for the vertical stacking of transistors at the IEDM (International Electron Devices Meeting) conference of the IEEE standardization body in San Francisco, which runs until December 15, 2021. This should either increase the possible performance or the efficiency. At the same conference, Intel presented a way to combine transistors in a …
