The new lithography represents a 27% reduction in size over the previous process.
Computerworld – Intel Corp. and Micron Technology Inc. on Monday plan to announce the world’s first 25-nanometer NAND flash technology, which will make it possible to double the storage capacity of devices like smartphones, music and media players, and solid-state drives (SSD) without making the products themselves any bigger.
Intel is currently shipping samples to equipment manufacturers of an 8GB NAND die created with its latest lithography. Lithography is the process of creating cells and transistors in silicon, which are used to store bits of data. The smaller they are, the more that can fit on a single NAND flash chip — and the greater the storage capacity. The companies plan to begin mass production of the 8GB die next quarter. Read more ……
