Intel 65-NM Process Moves Forward
Intel Corp. showed die photos of two microprocessors made with its 65-nm process Wednesday (Dec. 15) on the final day of the International Electron Devices Meeting, including a dual-core processor believed to be the mobile processor codenamed Yonah.
Source: EE TimesMark Bohr, senior fellow at Intel's logic technology development organization in Hillsboro, Ore., said the two MPU photos — one of a dual-core processor, another of a single-core MPU — indicate that Intel has developed "65-nm product prototypes," which he declined to describe further.
Bohr said the photos show that Intel has "moved well beyond" the stage of making test SRAMs with the 65-nm process. Last November, Intel described a 70-Mbit test SRAM created with the 65-nm process.

OK now how is the leakage with the 65nm process. It can only be worse at high clock speeds. Best application for it right now would be the Dothan aka Yonah.
