Are you saying that 300mm isn't suited for a .13u process?


This is a complex answer..I thougt you had access to the information that would detail my ..nudge.

1260 and 860 were developed seperately kinda...you know Intel with CE!, surely it can't be maintained here with different tool sets. What I'm saying is the next greatest thing is 90nm...only a 300mm process. So you have to respect the technical barriers tranferring this to serveral sites (droids dont understand). As 300mm ramps I assume the priority is 90nm ramp not .13 so how much volume goes to .13? Also you need to know that .13 is generic, there are transistor revs...thats one how we increase speed....tie process improvements to tranistor revs and low and behold 3.2 gig. Does 300mm track the same line of transistor revs as 200mm, my guess is no because the only purpose of .13 300mm is to show some yield..not world class performance...that is the 200mm fabs.

I've said too much gotta go
