CPU Manufacturing Process:
CPU "production process" refers to the production of CPU in the process, to process a variety of circuits and electronic components, manufacturing wire connections to various components. Usually the precision of its production to Nano (formerly used in Micron) to indicate that the higher the precision, the more advanced production technology. In the same material can make more electronic components, the connector line is also finer, improve the integration of the CPU.
The micron of manufacturing process refers to the distance between circuit and circuit in IC. The trend of manufacturing technology is the higher density, the higher the IC circuit design, which means that in the same size of the IC, you can have a higher density, more complex functions of the circuit design. The development and progress of microelectronic technology mainly depends on the continuous improvement of technology.
GPU Manufacturing Process:
The graphics card manufacturing process is actually refers to the display core process, it refers to the transistor gate circuit size, at this stage mainly in NM (NM) as a unit. The manufacturing process of the display chip is the same as that of the CPU, and it is measured by micrometer. The improvement of manufacturing process means that the display chip will be smaller, more integrated and can accommodate more transistors.
Like the central processing Unit, the core chip of the display card is also made on a silicon wafer. The development and progress of microelectronic technology mainly depends on the continuous improvement of technology.
The significance of the progress of manufacturing process:
More advanced manufacturing processes integrate more transistors into the CPU and GPU, enabling the processor to perform more functions and higher performance; more advanced manufacturing processes can further reduce the core area of the processor, which means that more CPUs and GPU products are produced on the same area of the wafer, Directly reduce the CPU and GPU product costs, which will eventually reduce the CPU and GPU sales price to make the majority of consumers gain; more advanced manufacturing processes also reduce processor power consumption, reducing its calorific value and resolving the obstacles to processor performance improvement. The development history of the processor itself also fully illustrates this point, advanced manufacturing technology so that the performance and function of the CPU has been enhanced, the cost of effective control.
