Intel core 'comet lake' and 'elkhart lake' won't arrive until 2020

Intel's future architecture for the Core series, Comet Lake, as well as for the Atom product range, Elkhart Lake, will not hit the market until the end of the year at the earliest. A recently revealed roadmap from the manufacturer that focuses on embedded products only mentions the first and second quarter of next year 2020 for both series.

Comet Lake is the successor to Coffee Lake Refresh

Embedded system manufacturers do not have top priority at this time, especially for core processors, where other segments are served primarily, especially the Original Equipment sector. Since Comet Lake is 'just' the fifth generation Skylake with a plus of more cores, Intel would launch this new series in the fall of next year.

The Atom product series has been going through tough times lately, and production bottlenecks have had a total impact on this. Because Intel used the production capabilities for its Xeon and Core CPUs, the Atoms have been somewhat relegated.

Gemini Lake is the current architecture within the Atom, but it is difficult to get, some manufacturers even see AMD as an alternative. Elkhart Lake would be the natural successor to Gemeini Lake with a 10nm manufacturing process, therefore, the date marked as the first quarter of 2020 makes complete sense. At 10nm, Intel will probably also do its best to be able to offer Ice Lake-U in small doses on some notebooks, starting in the second quarter of 2020.
