New lithography process more and more difficult to implement, why Intel is forced to abandon the TICK-TOCK strategy.
WITH 2006 , Intel released a new processor models in line with the strategy TICK-TOCK, цикл которой делится на две стадии — «тик» и «так». «Тик» означает миниатюризацию технологического процесса, and "It" refers to the release of processors with new microarchitecture, but in using the existing process. New processes of lithography and more difficult to implement, as a result it may be noted the statement from Intel about, that it will not use 10 nm. production technology.
Intel's new strategy calls for the production of processors in a different order. Новые процессора будут выпускаться не как было раньше – раз в два года, and once every three years. Thus, Intel plans to release three generations of processors in a single process. First, the new process will be mastered, and for two years will produce chips, based on the process.
The new strategy is aimed at the implementation of 14nm processors. technology. At the beginning 2014 year debuted generation Broadwell processors (the first of the processors, unreleased, but 14nm. technology), Last year the new models of the family were presented Skylake. This year, Intel plans to release its processor family Kaby Lake, which will be the third generation, manufactured on 14nm. technology. Based on the latest rumors, Intel plans to manufacture new models Cannonlake 2017 year, but if ony will be compatible with LGA 1151, not yet known.
