Broadcom CEO after entering the 16 NM wafer design costs increased four times

  Wafer Fab in Taiwan advanced process, but global Netcom leading the chip Broadcom Chief Executive Scott McGregor said from a client perspective, it was, the first chip unit costs are growing, 28 Nano is the best process nodes, after entering the 16 NM, design four times times the costs of rapid growth.

  Broadcom Announces high and Anwar (Avago) merged, the combined size of up to us $ 37 billion, the world's second-largest IC design company General Bo was the acquirer, shocked the market. McGregor says, chip design and manufacturing costs rise, to promote semiconductor and one reason for the wave.

  He said that, according to Moore's law, every one or two years, semiconductor technology development and innovation, reducing the cost and good performance, but there is a problem, although the total cost, but the cost per unit is increased performance chips and fewer great impact on industry. He showed a chart display, Moore's law in reducing the rate of return, is the first time ever, the chip unit costs grew, 28 Nano may be the optimal node.
