What difference does a nanometer make?

The smaller the chip, the bigger the difference.

The difference between a chip and a nanometer can be big or small. The nanoscale process of the chip refers to the gate width of the silicon transistor on the chip, so the smaller the chip process, the more silicon transistors can be accommodated in the same area. For example, the 7-nanometer process chip is about 80 million transistors per square millimeter, while the 5-nanometer density is about 140 million transistors per square millimeter, the 4-nanometer density is about 180 million transistors per square millimeter, and the 3-nanometer density is 250 million transistors per square millimeter. Therefore, the higher the crystal control process, the difference of one nanometer is very large, which is the difference in numerical ratio conversion, of course, and the node process replacement is also related.
