@Asianometry your labeling of NMOS and PMOS at 5:55 is backwards. The labeling of MOSFET types is done by the doping type of the source and drain, not the body. So an NMOS sits in a PWELL and has n-type doped source and drain, while a PMOS sits in an NWELL with p-type doped source and drain. (Though you are correct in stating that the formal definition of MOSFET type is based on the carrier type when the inversion channel is formed. But its much easier to tell for MOSFETs by looking at the doping in the source and drain. The issue would be compounded if we were looking at enhancement mode vs depletion mode, or the other exotic MOSFET types, but most of the time when people say MOSFETs, they're referring to enhancement mode.)
I mention this in most of his semicon videos, but I also think it would behoove him very much to update the color scheme on his standard CMOS cartoon to make the Source and Drain the same color for each transistor. It is confusing at best, and misleading at worst, to make the Source of NMOS and PMOS the same color, and Drain of N and P the same color. The source and drain of each transistor, or in reality the “active areas” of each transistor are, effectively, equivalent - built of the same materials and doping and process steps. The only thing that makes one a Source and one a Drain is how they are hooked up to the interconnects and power signals based on logic design. So, I think it would be much better to, for example, set both of the N+ doped Source and Drain of the NMOS to yellow, then both of the P+ doped Source and Drain of the PMOS to magenta. Or, taking it one more step, make all of the P-type silicon (including the P type substrate, P wells, and P+ doped active areas) different shades of, for example, red or purple. Then all of the N type silicon (including N wells and N+ doped areas) different shades of yellow or orange or something. Then use other colors like greens, blues, grays, etc for metals and oxides
Bob Swan insisted that 10nm should both be an aggressive shrink of 2.3x instead of the usual cadence of 1.7x AND it should be cheaper to produce (by omitting EUV) than 14nm. By the time 10nm actually started ramping TSMC was well ahead on their N5 node that was denser and cheaper using EUV. They did better in two steps than Intel did in one, and they did it faster. Intel's next generation Arrow Lake will "initially" be made on TSMC N3 "until Intel can ramp production" of their own version. This is what happens when you sent a bean counter to do an engineers job.....
@@phuang3 It could be done. That is precisely how their 10nm works. But it's a more expensive node today than TSMC N3 is. Intel 10nm uses SO many double and quadruple patterning steps that any gain in not shelling out for EUV machines gets lost many times over in wash and etch steps.
@@andersjjensen I was wrong. Intel aimed for 2.7x shrink from their 14nm node. I doubt they did it. There is rumour that Intel changed their goal secretly.
@@phuang3 They aimed for 2.7x but reached 2.3x. Since Intel does foundry service now so the density of their 10nm is publicly known.

@@BillAnt It's certainly possible NVidia could end the same way, but at present the big difference between the two is Intel is building fabs and Nvidia is fab-less. Not the greatest of comparisons.

For example, they've developed CUDA software to run on their hardware, ensuring future recurring revenue. We'll see how successful they are but I expect them to be dominant for at least a couple of years. For the size of the orders it's going to take time for all these investments to actually get built out and longer still to see if it's profitable.

But that's no critique. Please continue amazing us with your fine videos! 👌👍 P.S. as a retired semiconductor circuit designer, I had personal experience with many twists and turns of this breathtaking story.
How about a new video, about TSMC newer 7nm and possibly 4nm technologies. How do they get the gate insulators down to half-nanometer without defects. Also Source and Drain patches have to be so thin, that the resistance paths have to be huge. That has to hurt the Speed available. We should be getting into R-L-C speed limits, unless they put in transmission line artifacts. The throughput has to be horrible.
Error correction due to quantum effects and defects, along with thermal problems related to feature density have been limiting speed for more than a decade. This is part of why the 28nm node remains so sucessful and is still used for most commodity class chips. It was the smallest node that wasn't strongly effected by these problems. This is also why 32nm AMD chips (FX-83xx) continue to hold the world records for overclocking more than a decade after release. (Measured in frequency, not task speed.)
@@mytech6779 Also seeing similar problems for "radiation resistance" in these chips. Especially for home-brew mini & microsats in orbit. Also in high-altitude balloon projects.
No, Cheng is correct. In order to turn on a PMOS, you have to invert a moderately doped n type bulk to become p and thus create a conductive p type channel. The picture would be correct if the PMOS and Nmos labels are swapped or if the substrate is n doped
Your videos are excellent and remind me how little I actually learned in college in the early 80s. With one or two exceptions my professors epitomized the phrase, "Those that can't, teach." Every potential electrical engineering student would do well to watch all of your videos.

Man your vids are always a good shit's length. I dunno anything about this stuff but that's why it's so engrossing to learn about while dropping logs. You the best
I'll be picking up a bunch of Intel stock soon. They are behind but never out of the fight. They suspended their dividend so they can focus on innovation. Enough pandering to shareholders! That's why AMD was able to jump ahead, less pandering and more innovating. Great video by the way!
Worth remembering that the Intel 10nm debacle after that, started because they were (over)confident they could merge 3 gens of innovations into the same node. They basically wanted to do the equivalent of a 7nm EUV made node but without EUV... needless to say, turns out it was a bridge too far. Since it never yielded properly (to this day, 10nm Intel wafers are rumored to still be outrageously expensive and Intel making basically 0$ on any CPU they sell made on them) it got them stuck on the famous 14nm+++++ era which they still struggle to get out of. Every new design they talk about either get cancelled altogether, or is made at TSMC instead.
One of the reasons the AMD HD 5000 series was so good compared to the GTX 480 was because AMD used the Radeon HD 4770 as a test bed for TSMC's 40nm process first, and discovered that it had yield issues due to weak vias. This wasn't much of a problem for the 4770 itself, because of its small die size, but could have been a problem for the 5870. So, AMD worked around that by doubling up on the vias, at a small cost of die area, but this gave them redundancy, and prevented yield issues. Whereas for Nvidia, the GTX 480 was the first time they used TSMC's 40nm process, and since they were making the die size so much larger, they had significant yield issues, and is probably why they only used 480 of the 512 shaders.
fermi was a terribly power hungry architecture, that's what really hurt nvidia, still as it usually happens nvidia still out sold amd by a good margin.
Nobody knows anything for certain about it. There is good indication that the oxidation contamination at the Arizona fab only affected Sapphire Rapids server CPUs, and that the Raptor Lake and Raptor Lake Refresh failure are solely due to the ringbus getting cooked. But it is just that: good indication. Not outright proof.
In 40 years there will probably be a 2 hour retrospective made by a youtuber how this "crisis" contributed to the inevitable spiraling downfall of Intel
I love when video-games (modded usually) is actually teaching me real science before I figure out that it's actually real. Insane. I made circuits in Pyanodon (in Factorio) and I accidentally already knew a lot of the vocabulary here, surprisingly. 😂 "Oooh it's not a game thing???"
Why not Gate central ie drain at the top, source at the bottom, pillar GAAFET. Especially with 13.5nm, lets say the pillar is 28nm radius, 9F2 for 1 transistor (giving room for vias), you essentially get 2BILLION T/mm2 (ie 3nm x10) Im genuinely curious why it isnt a thing, at the very least for SRAM
Very cool, i had no idea about the egineering challengins in CPU design, the tech media only foucues on the competion, but the real competiton is nature and its challenges, no engineer is thinking about "crushing" any kind of competition they'r trying to solve real problems.
idk if it's relevant to the channel, but could you make a video providing insight on the recent mass layoffs in Intel? The reasons behind it n stuff, beceause it seems absurd considering that the government is investing a lot into their fabs
lets see: they design many more dies than the competition, and intel's dies are massive in comparison making their products much more expensive both to produce as well as to design. their reliability record is now on public trial due to pushing their chips too hard. their internal foundry has been loosing ground to TSMC, their joining of the gpu market has mostly failed, they still have 100k workers vs AMDs ~25k. yes they might be getting some grants but gov money isn't something to trust and at the Rate these kinds of companies burn R&D funds it wont last long. they need severe cost cutting measures yesterday and they dont seem to be doing them.
Intel squandered their lead indeed. 14nm++++++++ is ridiculous. But then again, they made a huge amount of money until recently so investing $400+M in the EUV machine + tooling is not that big of a deal and a chance to leapfrog TSMC into 1.8nm.
Started watching. Hoping it goes into real world examples like "if you have to close 3 physical gates with people trying to rush into a castle, how does the order you shut them change the outcome". And if its that... the bottom half of your human donut hole has multiple sphincters.

Theses things seem to be too complicated too exist so I don’t think it’s possible… I am just curious about how I am supposed to believe that given that I am watching this on my iPhone 😅😅😅😅
Yes, the technological downfall of Intel is the greatest industry miracle. The did 45nm with hybrid gate last (highk was gate 1st like) and double pattering as iARF was not ready before the other came with a still polySiON node. TSMC followed in 32/28 but Intel had full gate last already at 32. Everyone tried to copy Intel on 22, but boom Intel presented FinFET. They were always ahead. Every 2-3 years a new full node. And then 6-7 years not solving the issues in 10nm!
No it is Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor. It's suppose to refer to the material stackup when taking a cross section of the transistor at the midline, which is right through the gate, oxide, and body of the transistor where the channel forms during inversion.

Theses things seem to be too complicated too exist so I don’t think it’s possible… I am just curious about how I am supposed to believe that given that I am watching this on my iPhone 😅😅😅😅
Gate often
You said aluminum instead of aluminum...
based monetization strat makes me want to subscribe but not rn lol
Why not both gates!!!
Yes, the technological downfall of Intel is the greatest industry miracle.
The did 45nm with hybrid gate last (highk was gate 1st like) and double pattering as iARF was not ready before the other came with a still polySiON node. TSMC followed in 32/28 but Intel had full gate last already at 32. Everyone tried to copy Intel on 22, but boom Intel presented FinFET. They were always ahead. Every 2-3 years a new full node. And then 6-7 years not solving the issues in 10nm!
And the price of Intel dropped by 30% on the same as this video comes out. Sad...
I get it
intel could have saved Scarlett johansson
many such cases
gate first?
gate last?
gate all around?
Video.
I love how you pronounce aluminium the civilised way but semiconductor the Yankee way
And DRAM like a Klingon.
Mofet 😂
Can you cover intels raptor lake shitting the bed?
you basically have a phd in solid state physics with all these transistor videos haha
MOS stands for Metal Oxide SILICON! - Not 'Semiconducter"! Silicon being the substrate, ie, the chip itself.
No it is Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor. It's suppose to refer to the material stackup when taking a cross section of the transistor at the midline, which is right through the gate, oxide, and body of the transistor where the channel forms during inversion.
hi
Stock video may be fun and all,
but it's very distracting to what we're trying to learn.
Man, I hate over-used stock video.
You get what you pay for…
Jon throws in the humor for free…
😃
Hey why you do a video on where the $$$ is made.
npn or pnp? or p**p
So why is AMD dominating now? And is that related to Intel's huge issues with its most recent chips?
Now Intel is busy blowing out the ring bus in their own processors.
420 views when I clicked to watch… nice… 😂
420? 😂
Aluminum. Not aluminium. Stop this nonsense
We will spill blood over this
