Is Moore’s Law really dead?

Thanks for viewing my earlier post and suggesting accordingly.

      Figure 1 :  Audience Statistics 
                                                  
As discussed in the my earlier post Moore’s statement is an observation on the number of transistors on a chip that increases exponentially  and he didn't mention on the speed , Architecture ,size and cost of the chip.

Is Moore’s Law really dead?

The short answer for now, not yet, but it might be going to end in near future. Recently Researchers have warned that the era of exponent graph may come to end , I don’t want to argue on the forecast but we need to focus on other alternatives such as.

     1.       New Material to Replace silicon.
     2.       Advance Manufacturer Techniques.
     3.       3D Transistors. ( I will discuss in-depth in future posts)


Figure 2 :  Appreciation by NXP for my Poster Presentation on 3D Transistors and Bio-Neuro Chips in  year 2011 



The law of physics doesn't allow chip size to shrink below to an extent , Researchers predicts that it might shrink up to 5 nm by 2020.

According to me the day when chip maker can’t get returns on the billions he invested that is the end of Moore’s prediction.


Long Live Moore's Prediction.

Thanks in advance for Reading the Post.

 Next i will be Posting few articles on UVM along with my friends and colleagues with subject (UVM with Vikas). 

Stay  Tuned ...
