minus-square@BetaDoggo_@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglish45•2 years agoNanometers have actually been a marker of generation for quite a while. 3nm is actually 24. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/3_nm_process
minus-square@Oderus@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglish22•2 years agoIntel does it and it’s annoying. 7mm lithography is actually 10nm. No idea how they get away with false advertising.

minus-squareDoubletwistlinkfedilinkEnglish16•edit-22 years agoThat seems… Illegal. Much the same as selling a “foot long” Sub or Hotdog which is only 11". At the very least it’s misleading.
minus-square@smakas@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkEnglish11•2 years agoFrom Wikipedia: The term “3 nanometer” has no relation to any actual physical feature (such as gate length, metal pitch or gate pitch) of the transistors.
