Intel will increase its production of low-end cpus
Table of contents:
Intel has been having trouble with the production of 10nm chips and also its current 14nm chips. Due to the delay of their 10nm node, they have had to continue to use a 14nm node, saturating production chains, having to focus on their high-end products.
Intel will boost its production of low-end CPUs as 10nm Ice Lake approaches
Fortunately, Intel is overcoming this pitfall, and on Thursday Intel said its shortage of "small core" microprocessors is decreasing.
Intel's second-quarter results, released Thursday, exceeded the company's own expectations. Intel's earnings fell 17% to $ 4.2 billion, while revenue fell slightly 3% to $ 16.5 billion. In part, this is due to inventory and manufacturing issues as the company transitioned to its 10nm products, including Ice Lake, which Intel has previously said is now on the market.

Intel now has two 10nm factories, CEO Bob Swan said. Intel lost a "bit of a share" during the second quarter as the company prioritized its highest-margin, "big core" microprocessors. During that time, Swan said, Intel was unable to meet demand for its cheaper chips. Now things are living a bit of 'normal' as we get closer to the launch of Ice Lake at 10nm.
In 2021, Intel expects to transition to the 7nm manufacturing process node. Intel hopes that its 7nm will be able to compete seamlessly with the 5nm technologies that AMD would already have by then.

Intel uses its 22 nm to increase its manufacturing capacity
It is no secret that Intel has not been doing very well lately, delaying its manufacturing process at 10nm has put the capacity of the Intel in check. Reports are appearing that Intel will move some of its chipsets to the 22nm node to free up capacity. production at 14 nm.
