Creating a "European CMOS 2.0 Army"

Show all headers | View raw

Hi,

For marketing purposes people
typically look at the race towards
2nm, and we find:

A month ago, Apple lost its exclusivity
on 3 nm smartphone processors with
MediaTek’s Dimensity 9400 chip, integrated
in the Vivo X200 Pro smartphone. Qualcomm
is also in the race with its recently
unveiled Snapdragon 8 Elite and set to
power the Xiaomi 15 Pro in 2025. However,
Apple should regain its position as innovation
leader in 2026 with the release of the
iPhone 18, which should feature the A20
chip built on TSMC’s 2 nm process."

But there is a vertical vias revolution
going on as well, some SOCs typically
being at 18 layers now:

imec has coined the term CMOS 2.0:

LEUVEN (Belgium), MARCH 12th, 2026 — Imec,
a world-leading research and innovation hub
in advanced semiconductor technologies, has
launched a first-of-its-kind consortium with
26 European university groups that will jointly
work on the technology roadmap beyond
CMOS scaling (CMOS 2.0).

So we might see more mobile grade GPUs.

Bye
