Intel’s 18A Strikes Back: SRAM Density Ties TSMC’s N2—Is Team Blue Ready to Reclaim the Crown?

Intel's 18A Strikes Back: SRAM Density Ties TSMC's N2-Is Team Blue Ready to Reclaim the Crown? Intel's been the underdog in the chip wars, but a juicy leak from ISSCC 2025-and some wild investor buzz-might just signal a turnaround. Intel's 18A process is matching TSMC's N2 node with an SRAM density of 38 Mb/mm², and it's packing a frequency punch too. With Panther Lake CPUs and Xe3P graphics riding this node, a growing customer list, and whisper…

Intel and TSMC have published details of their upcoming semiconductor manufacturing processes from the ISSCC. It looks good for 18A: density is at eye level, and clock behaviour is even better in one discipline at least.

It has been in the ISSCC behind closed doors that the great designers of lithographic processes have staged what they did not show at this year’s IEEE. Intel and TSMC have hoarded all the spotlights, Samsung has not staged anything new and Mediatek has unveiled its TCAM, but above all there is Synopsys, since it has achieved the same thing we are going to see with TSMC and Intel, but instead of 2 nm and 1.8 nm, with 3 nm! What is the bombing for…

Intel's 18A Process Reportedly Comes With SRAM Density On-Par With TSMC's N2; Team Blue Gearing Up For A Phenomenal Comeback

Intel's 18A is said to report an SRAM density equal to that of TSMC's N2 process, signaling a massive breakthrough for the IFS and its semiconductor ambitions. Intel's 18A Process Is a "Special" One, Credits To Implementations Such As BSPDN Along With Years of R&D Behind It Well, it seems like now might be the time to be bullish on the future of Intel's chip plans, since the latest reports are clearly indicating that the momentum is shifting tow…
