Intel一开始应该就是打算把Arrow Lake用GG的N3B和自家20A做
只是到最近才决定全部都用N3B做
主因可能不是20A的良率 而是Intel自家生产的花费就比GG还要贵
在这新闻稿中有一段:
Intel will now leapfrog over its 20A process entirely and avoid the capital
expenditures required to bring the node to full production. Eliminating the
always-eye-watering ramp costs of a new node, particularly one as advanced as
20A, will surely contribute to the company meeting its cost-cutting goals -
Intel says the move will save half a billion dollars.
简单来说,20A不量产可以帮Intel省下5亿美金
(20A本来就预定只生产Arrow Lake )
当G叔拟订4年5节点的计画时 其中一个问题是每个节点都只有押1-2个主要产品
大概是期望Intel 3和Intel 18A可以有大单来分成本吧
但没想到迟迟找不到外部大客户 销售低迷 财政困难
现在公司已经裁员.不发免费水果.不请健身教练......各种花式省钱
只能增加下单台积的比例来缩减成本
但对台积的依赖越深 离IDM2.0的梦就越遥远了
