Recently, a video from Intel Foundry about the ARM processor appeared online. A reference system on the Deer Creek Falls chip using the 18A process was demonstrated.
The ARM processor contains seven cores, one of which is productive, two are efficient, and four have low power consumption. The SoC has built-in PHY, PCIe, and memory controllers. The sample has a fairly heterogeneous design.
The video mentions AArch64, which is a 64-bit version of the ARM ISA. In addition, the company is actively promoting a set of tools for performance optimization. Such content should have been of interest to potential Intel customers, but it was soon removed.
Insights into the 14A process
Since external customers were not interested in the 18A tech process, it was practically canceled by the company. Intel plans to use it in its products in the future.
The 14A process has better perspectives, but may be canceled if there is no interest from customers. Insider information suggests that NVIDIA and Apple are considering 14A, which could save Intel Foundry.
