Intel Foundry announced Wednesday at IFS Direct that Microsoft has chosen Intel’s 18A (1.8nm-class) process technology for its next-generation custom processor.
“We are in the midst of a very exciting platform shift that will fundamentally transform productivity for every individual organization and the entire industry,” said Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella. “To achieve this vision, we need a reliable supply of the most advanced, high-performance and high-quality semiconductors. That is why we are so excited to work with Intel Foundry, and why we have chosen a chip design that we plan to produce on Intel 18A process.”
