Tukwila question

[coolblue]

I've done some quick calculations assuming that this new processor is made using 300mm wafers but it seems my calculations are way off. By some 211 billion transistors! :-(

30,000,000nm^2 wafer (300mm^2)
65nm^2 transistor
213,017,751,500 transistors

I know the math itself is right but if anyone knows where I went wrong could you please let me know. Of course my calculations are assuming that every square nanometer of a wafer is turned into a transistor but I don't think that has caused my numbers to be off that much.

"Tukwila question"
Wasington State?

No, Intel's new processor. :suspiciou

And I've figured out part of my problem, they make more than one processor from a wafer.

So my question has now changed to how many processor's would Intel get from one 300mm wafer? Working and not.
