Making the All New Intel Core 2010 and More Insights at IDF09

posted by Ken Kaplan on September 20, 2009

The week prior to the Intel Developer Forum kicking off in San Francisco (9/22-24), Intel shared news about its new 32nm process for making SoC, or system of a chip. That news and and some engineering insights from Intel rock star Sanjay Natarajan — who was also featured in engadget — prompted this headline in the Wall Street Journal: Intel Sets Sights on New Markets.

That story described the big picture possibilities that come from Intel technology and manufacturing innovation. It also hit on a theme I blogged about a few weeks ago — 32nm and Westmere. In that story I mentioned we were in the process of shooting video in Hillsoboro, Oregon.

In this video, Intel engineers from the Technology and Manufacturing Group and computer chip design and test teams show and tell how they helped create Westmere, the codename for the world’s first 32nm microprocesor. This multichip processor will be available in 2010, and will feature CPU, graphics, memory controller, Intel Hyper-Threading and Turbo Boost all on one package.

Thanks to the Intel engineers in this video who shared their time and stories, and showed us how diligently they work to keep Moore’s Law moving into the future. They truly are our rock stars!

We’ll be on the look out for Westmere in action at IDF09.
