The stock market can be irrational for longer than you can be solvent. In this case we see zero usage of all those "AI" chips by the...

If there were a way to do BSPD without thinning the Si substrate would that solve the heat spreading problem? All that’s needed is...

Nope, that's not true. For chips whose design suits BSPD -- for example GPU/AI chips for HPC, which is a huge and rapidly expanding part...

Taipei, Aug. 19 (CNA) Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. (TSMC) secured NT$67.13 billion (US$2.23 billion) in subsidies from the...

That doesn't stack up with actual calculations/simulations I did when looking into BSPD.
With conventional FSPD the transistors sit...

Gelsinger was a "champion" of Larrabee, but he did not lead it or architect it. Doug Carmean was the chief architect. Gelsinger liked...

They're probably not that much worse than nanosheet devices, which are already worse then FinFETs for self-heating because they have...

It's not defective, it's excellent for the right applications -- but not best suited for a lot of others.

Like I said, how big a problem this is depends on the chip design. There's a fundamental thermal problem with BSPD if you have small...
