Moore's Law continues: Intel, the world's largest chipmaking company, announced that it had succeeded in creating memory chips, SRAMs (static random access memory), with on-chip feature sizes of 45-nanometers (nm). Most of today's chips have feature sizes of 90-nm or higher. The smallest features sizes being manufactured in chips today, in only a few of the very latest designs now in production, have feature sizes of 65-nm. Intel said that it would have 45-nm chips in production by the second half of next year, including memory chips, microprocessing chips and other designs.
