POSTER: computer news   ||    ASML STARTS COMMERCIAL DELIVERY OF EUV-SCANNERS	DATE:2017-09-07
From 2013 to 2016, the Netherlands company ASML - an expert in industrial equipment for the production of semiconductors - supplied customers with 14 lithographic scanners of the EUV range.  This equipment was considered to be proficient, since the power of the radiation sources in its composition did not allow processing silicon plates with a sufficiently high speed.  To date, the power of EUV-radiation sources has been raised to 250 W and provides a processing speed of about 100 plates per hour.  Next year, the processing speed will be increased to 125 plates per hour.  Replacement will require only a radiation source, which allows for on-site modernization. Taking into account technological pauses, each ASML scanner of the latest generation per day can process 2000 plates with a diameter of 300 mm.  The wavelength of EUV radiation in this generation of scanners is 13.5 nm, which is an order of magnitude shorter than that of actual mass scanners.  The use of EUV-scanners will begin with a 7-nm process technology.  Samsung plans to begin commercial operation of EUV-equipment in the first generation of 7-nm process technology in 2018, while TSMC and GlobalFoundries expect to introduce the EUV-projection in 2019 or 2020 for the second generation of 7-nm process technology. The commercial maturity of EUV-scanners allows to start full-scale equipment supplies.  So, this year ASML will supply 12 scanners to customers, and next year 24 installations.  The cost of each of them will be more than 100 million euros ($ 119).  ASML remains a monopolist.  In addition, no one in the world can produce projection units for working with the EUV-range.  The previous leader of the market for lithographic scanners - the Japanese company Nikon - at an early stage of development abandoned the EUV-range and focused on the technology of nano printing (nanoimprint).  So today ASML owns about 80% of the market of lithographic scanners, and Nikon reduces the personnel and the amount of work performed, producing equipment on request.

POSTER: computer news   ||    THE OLDER SKYLAKE PROCESSORS WITH A FREE MULTIPLIER ARE REMOVED FROM PRODUCTION	DATE:2017-09-07
The forthcoming entry into the market of desktop processors Coffee Lake requires sweeps in the Intel price list, and yesterday the company notified customers that part of the Skylake generation models fall under the removal program.  The reason is obvious and traditional: demand has shifted to other brand products.   The supply of two older models Skylake family will be discontinued, which offered a free multiplier that facilitates overclocking.  Besides, the pair of processors of this family, which are less interesting for overclockers, is also being abolished. Order these processors will be available until March 30, 2018, the last batch will be shipped on September 7, 2018.   Select Rating : Currently 9.99/10 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 49621 Rating: 10.0/10 (238 votes cast) The older Skylake processors with a free multiplier are removed from production	Add Comment ( 1 ) THE OLDER SKYLAKE PROCESSORS WITH A FREE MULTIPLIER ARE REMOVED FROM PRODUCTION

POSTER: computer news   ||    MEIZU WILL RELEASE ANDROID-SMARTPHONE BASED ON HELIO P40	DATE:2017-09-07
MediaTek is preparing to release a new mobile processor Helio P40 and is now discussing with large manufacturers the possibility of its installation in new smartphones.  And today it became known that at least one company became interested in the new MediaTek chip. As reported by the Internet portal GizmoChina with reference to informed sources, MediaTek sent the smartphone manufacturers samples of the new Helio P40 processor for testing and has already found the first customer.  This is the Chinese company Meizu.  According to sources, the first Meizu smartphone based on Helio P40 will appear in the first quarter of 2018.  By the way, recently Meizu has released a smartphone Pro 7 Plus on Helio X30, the most powerful mobile chip MediaTek. As it became known earlier,  MediaTek Helio P40 will include two Cortex-A73 cores and four Cortex-A53 cores.  It will be a mid-range chip, built on 12-nanometer standards.  The announcement of a new single-chip system, which will replace the Helio P30, is expected in the fourth quarter of 2017.

POSTER: computer news   ||    AMD BRISTOL RIDGE PROCESSORS ARE ALSO AVAILABLE IN AMERICAN RETAIL	DATE:2017-09-07
The computational core Excavator generation  with the graphics system generation GCN 3.0, and compatibility with motherboards with the Socket AM4 connector makes them a "transitional option" to wait for a meeting not only with Ryzen, but also with future hybrid Raven Ridge processors that will offer and computing cores with Zen architecture  , and graphics generation Vega. Western stores are also begin to be saturated with boxed versions of Bristol Ridge processors.  Perhaps now there are fewer people who want to buy them than in the era prior to the announcement of AMD Ryzen.
