Huawei to produce 1.4nm chips by 2031, comes up with a new scaling law for semiconductors

During a keynote in Shanghai at the International Symposium of Circuits and Systems (ISCAS), Huawei revealed some of the advancements the company made in the past six years, talked about a new architecture that would solve current chip manufacturing constraints and even proposed a new scaling law to replace the dated Moore’s Law.

Moore’s Law has been around for more than five decades now and has shaped the chip manufacturing industry. Still, lately, it has been facing physical limits and diminishing economic returns, partially because it’s based on geometric scaling. Huawei came up…
