At room temperature, the chip operated at 350 GHz, slightly slower than the record but still over 87 times faster than the fastest commercially available chips. According to IBM, SiGe chips operate faster at very cold temperatures.
"This groundbreaking collaborative research by Georgia Tech and IBM redefines the performance limits of silicon-based semiconductors," said Bernie Meyerson, vice president and chief technologist at IBM. "IBM is committed to working closely with our academic and industry partners to deliver the insight and innovation that will enable a new generation of high-performance, energy efficient microprocessors."
The two organizations said that these ultra-high performance chips could have several important uses, including commercial communications systems, defense electronics, space exploration, and remote sensing.
-- cpu-kat gyártsatok már belőle, akkor mindenki boldog lenne. Még az is akinek két annya van.
