SureCore Brings 16nm FinFET to Mainstream Use With a New Memory Compiler

Semiconductor processes can have a rather long and interesting life cycle. At first, a new process defines the leading edge. This is cost-no-object territory, where performance is king. The process is new, the equipment to make it is expensive, and its use is reserved for those that have a market (and budget) big enough to justify… Read More
