For example, a computer would use spintronics within its deepest interior but rely on traditional electronics further out to communicate with memory, drives and networks. Translating data and ...

Instead, the dearth in chip capacity is mainly for older semiconductors built on legacy logic chips, including, for example, 40nm, 90nm, 150nm, 180nm, and 250nm nodes.

Computer chips are a national security issue, ... Congress passed the U.S. CHIPS and Science Act in 2022, ... Examples of such would include reducing corporate and property taxes, ...

Not only did the research team invent the chip, they needed to invent the tools used to build it, since existing current computer-assisted design (CAD) software wasn’t adequate. “One of the things ...

Eight-year-old Spin Memory, based in Fremont, California, is advancing the state of the art in a form of computer-memory chip known as "MRAM," for "magnetoresistive random access memory." ...

Hackers can exploit two major flaws, called Meltdown and Spectre, in microprocessors running virtually all machines on Earth. Here’s what you need to do now.

UC San Diego is making an effort to make computer chips a lot smarter and faster. KPBS Sci-tech reporter Thomas Fudge has this story about a project called PRISM.<br/> ...
