TSMC To Use 28nm Chips By 2010

Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company made the announcement today that it will start using advanced 28-nm technology by early 2010.

The new technology, which will support applications like cellular baseband and wireless connectivity, is expected to provide up to 50 percent more speed or 30-50 percent lower power consumption than TSMCs' 40-nanometre low-power node, TSMC said.
