Adapting Mobile To A Post-Moore’s Law Era
By Ann Mutschler - 14 Feb, 2019 - Comments: 0

The slowdown in Moore's Law is having a big impact on chips designed for the mobile market, where battery-powered devices need to still improve performance with lower power. This hasn't slowed down performance or power improvements, but it has forced chipmakers and systems companies to approach designs differently. And while feature shrinks will continue for the foreseeable future, they are ... » read more
