The chipmaker says it can no longer maintain its two-year cycle for shrinking the features in its microprocessors.
The chipmaker says it can no longer maintain its two-year cycle for shrinking the features in its microprocessors.
The delay is a seismic change for both Intel and the chip industry, which has used the two-year upgrade cycle as a defining maxim for four decades (Intel co-founder Gordon Moore, for whom Moore’s Law is named, predicted in 1965 the number of transistors on a chip would double annually. He revised that forecast in 1975.)
