If you are involved in the world of computing, you must know or have heard about Moore's Law. Presented by one of the founders of Intel, Gordon Moore, Moore's Law states that the number of transistors for a processing chip will double every two years.
This was seen to be true for a long time, but recently Moore's Law has become increasingly difficult to follow because for the number of transistors to increase, it depends heavily on a number of factors, including the semiconductor chip construction process and so on.
Speaking at MIT, Pat Gelsinger, CEO of Intel recently issued a statement that Moore's Law is still applicable, but has said that the doubling time of the number of transistors in a semiconductor chip is increasing, from every two years to every three years.
There are many people who say that Moore's Law can no longer be used because the process of doubling the number of transistors on a semiconductor chip is increasingly difficult to do, especially with the space between the transistors getting smaller and the size of the transistor itself has not changed much until now.
Even so, Pat Gelsinger said that Intel has plans to speed up the rate of increasing the number of these transistors back to every two years by using 2.5D and 3D processing chip packaging processes such as Foveros where these transistors are stacked on top of each other to allow more of these components to be installed. in a semiconductor chip.
