ARM and Cadence Tape Out First 14nm FinFET Test Chip

According to ARM, the chip included the Cortex-A7 processor itself, as well as Artisan standard-cell libraries, "next-generation" memories, and general purpose IOs.

ARM said that the process is targeting high-density, high-performance and ultra-low power SoCs for "future smartphones, tablets and all other advanced mobile devices". There was no information when 14 nm ARM processors will become available.

    AMD? Lol.

    Anyway, I wonder if this is like the first chip they've rolled out.

    Ha. Eat that, apple. Leaving samsung for your chips doesn't seem like such a good idea after all, now does it?!?

    zzz_bI would like to know the estimated power used for on ARM15 with this technology!Uh, from X to Y? You know there's no single "ARM15 chip", and the various ARM15-equipped (and derivatives thereof) SoCs span a range of performance, power, and thermal targets. This process node will be no different.
