Judging solely by transistor density(not sure how meaningful is this metric), it is bit better than TSMC N4, but comparable. TSMC N5: 185.46 TSMC N4: 196.6

- top_sigrid 4y agoThanks for pointing this out, but some units would do good ;)
- dmitrygr 4y agoI think that’s MTr/mm^2
- ncmncm 4y agoWe will need to start reporting transistors per square micron. But it is the same number. I drove past a Micron Technology building last month, and had to reflect on how many square microns a 6502 would take, nowadays. Not counting TTL drivers, looks like around 4x5 microns. An original ARM would fit in like 10x20 microns. Invisible either way.
