Intel looks to power at ISSCC

Power, heat and leakage have become the bane of chipmakers looking to crank up the clock speed to improve performance. So this year at the International Solid State Circuits Society (ISSCC) conference in San Francisco, Intel plans to release papers on technologies to crank back the clock.

The chipmaker will reveal details of a handful of new advances to improve the power usage and heat dissipation of its chips, and offer information on the progress of its efforts at radio on a chip.
