Chip Talk > Intel 18A Process Sets New Industry Standards with Back Side Power Delivery
Published April 24, 2025
Intel has been making waves in the semiconductor industry with its progress on the 18A process node, which promises to revolutionize chip manufacturing. According to a report on SemiWiki, Intel is the first in the industry to adopt back-end power supply technology. This innovation is poised to enhance chip density and utilization significantly.
The trial production of the 18A process has been met with positive reactions from ASIC customers. Companies like Faraday are already receiving samples and finding favorable results in testing phases. Notably, Intel's Panther Lake and next-generation Nova Lake series are set to leverage this cutting-edge technology, with various tiles being produced internally and some outsourced to TSMC.
With its groundbreaking power delivery, Intel sets a new benchmark for the integration of advanced processes with smart power management features. This development is expected not only to enhance Intel's standing in the market but also to drive competitive innovation industry-wide.
