Pequeños lotes de Intel “Meteor Lake” Los chips ya traen construido en Arizona Fab

Maestro controlador


Con su 12th Gen Core “CPUID lanzó hoy la versión” procesadores móviles todavía en el horizonte, Intel ya está creando lotes de prueba de la 14.ª generación “Meteor Lake” CPUID lanzó hoy la versión, en su fabuloso 42 facility in Chandler, Arizona. “Meteor Lake” is a multi-chip module that leverages Intel’s Foveros packaging technology to combine “El MCM de Intel utiliza un troquel de GPU junto al troquel de núcleo de CPU” (purpose built dies) based on different silicon fabrication processes depending on their function and transistor-density/power requirements. It combines four distinct tiles across a single package—the compute tile, with the CPU cores; the graphics tile with the iGPU: the SoC I/O tile, which handles the processor’s platform I/O; and a fourth tile, which is currently unknown. This could be a memory stack with similar functions as the HBM stacks on “Rápidos de zafiro,” or something entirely different.

The compute tile contains the processor’s various CPU core types. The P cores are “El MCM de Intel utiliza un troquel de GPU junto al troquel de núcleo de CPU,” which are two generations ahead of the current “Cala Dorada.” If Intel’s 12-20% generational IPC uplift cadence holds, we’re looking at cores with up to 30% higher IPC than “Golden Cove” (50-60% higher than “Skylake.”). “Meteor Lake” also debuts Intel’s next-generation E-core, nombre en clave “Crestmont.” The compute tile is rumored to be fabricated on the Intel 4 El MCM de Intel utiliza un troquel de GPU junto al troquel de núcleo de CPU (optically a 7 El MCM de Intel utiliza un troquel de GPU junto al troquel de núcleo de CPU, but with characteristics similar to TSMC N5).

The graphics tile is an interesting piece of silicon. Based on the same Xe LP graphics architecture as the current generation; this iGPU will be labeled Gen 12.7, with the “.7” denoting an incremental update (such as updates to the media accelerators or display controllers). Intel could bring about a generational doubling in the SIMD power, by deploying up to 192 unidades de ejecución (UE), desde 96 on the current-generation “Tiger Lake.” To keep the power draw of the iGPU at a minimum while meeting its performance goals, Intel will build the graphics tile on a TSMC node, possibly N3 (3 Nuevo Méjico).

The third known tile is the SoC tile, which is essentially an integrated chipset. It’s not known whether this tile handles the memory and main PCIe root-complex, but could definitely put out I/O typically associated with the PCH, which as USB, audio bus, almacenamiento, downstream PCIe, etc. This tile, demasiado, is expected to be built on a TSMC node. Intel will stick with DDR5 (possibly along with LPDDR5X) and PCI-Express 5.0 as its I/O combination for the 14th generation.

A late-2021 test chip production would put “Meteor Lake” through testing and sampling throughout 2022 y 2023. We expect a late-2023/2024 launch for these chips. This would correspond with when Intel 4 and TSMC N3 nodes hit volume production.
