Israel’s hi-tech industry continues to be at the forefront of innovation and development…this week – it’s Intel-Israel…and the Penryn chip that makes its debut.
According to news sources:
Global computer company Intel unveiled the latest addition to its processor family this week: a new chipset temporarily named “Penryn.” The innovative processor is based on hafnium, a metal that is used in transistor production as well as in nuclear plant control rods. It reduces electricity loss through the use of third-generation silicon materials, also does away with the need to incorporate eco-unfriendly lead and halogen in the production process.
“These are the biggest transistor advancements in 40 years,” Intel co-founder Gordon Moore said. The latest Penryn innovation drew upon expertise and experience accumulated during the Israeli development of the Centrino processor
