A Teeny, Tiny Step

Intel thinks they have a winner.

“Test chips made on Intel’s ultra-low power 65nm process technology have shown transistor leakage reduction roughly 1,000 times from our standard processes. This translates into significant power savings for people who will use devices based on this technology.”
While the technology will reduce the drain on batteries in notebook PCs, Jim McGregor, principle analyst at the In-Stat research firm, says the advance will be a major boost for Intel’s efforts to get its processors into mobile phones.
“If they can get this down to a product for handheld devices then the opportunities are huge.”
