I-Apple ibonakala ngathi izakwazisa iitshiphusi ze-2nm kwi-iPhone kunye ne-Mac iflegi kamsinya nje ngo-2025, ngokutsho kweVine, iyenza enye yeenkampani zokuqala ukwenza oko.
Iprototype yokuqala ye-2nm chip yaveliswa yi-IBM kulo nyaka uphelileyo, ngoko ke inkqubo ikude nokulungele ukuveliswa kobuninzi. I-Semiconductor giant TSMC ichaze ukuba i-node yayo ye-2nm ayiyi kulungele ukuveliswa ngokubanzi kude kube yi-2025, ngokutsho kwe-DigiTimes Asia.
I-Apple kunye ne-Intel iya kuba ngabathengi bokuqala ekuqhubeni le nkqubo intsha: Ngokwenxalenye yayo, i-Apple iyakuvuyela ukubuyisela iitshiphuphu ze-5nm ezisetyenziswa ngoku kwii-iPhones kunye neeMacs ngeprosesa entsha ye-2nm.
Ngaphambi kokuba sifike apho, i-TSMC isanyusa inkqubo yayo ye-3nm ye-FInFET kwisiqingatha sesibini sika-2022, i-Apple ibe ngumthengi omkhulu kwiitshiphusi ze-3nm ezintsha.
Kukho amahemuhemu aphikisanayo malunga nokuba inkqubo ye-TSMC ye-3nm yokuvelisa isemva kweshedyuli, ngoko akucaci ukuba naluphi na ukulibaziseka okunokuthi kuchaphazele ixesha lenkampani kwii-chips ze-2nm; I-2025 ikude ngokwaneleyo, emva kwayo yonke into, ngoko nantoni na ingenzeka.
Uhlalutyo: ngaphaya kwe-2nm yi… yintoni kanye kanye?
Njengoko iiprosesa ze-2nm zisondela kwimakethi eqhelekileyo, umbuzo wokuba yintoni elandelayo nawo uyasondela. Kwi-2nm, uthetha ngee-transistors ezingenkulu kunomtya we-athomu, kwaye kuba nzima ngokwasemzimbeni ukuzenza zibencinci kakhulu.
Yingxaki esazi ngayo ngaphezulu kweshumi leminyaka ngoku: "ukuphela koMthetho kaMoore," ebizwa ngegama lenkosi yeIntel uGordon Moore, owaphantse waxela kwangaphambili ukuba ubuninzi beetransistors zekhompyuter bunokuba kabini rhoqo kwiminyaka emibini. Kube njalo kule minyaka ingamashumi amathandathu idlulileyo, kodwa ishishini le-microprocessor liye ladibana nentloko enkulu ngoku njengoko sikumlinganiselo we-nanometer enamanani omnye.
Ngaphaya koko, sikhangela i-picometer, okanye iwaka le-nanometer, malunga namaxesha angama-100 amancinci kuneathom yesilicon enye. Apho umzi-mveliso uya khona kwizinto ezintsha kunye nenkqubela phambili kwi-semiconductor front ayicacanga, kodwa ngokuqinisekileyo ayikho.
