Intel squeezes 2 BILLION transistorsIntel squeezes 2 BILLION transistorsonto new Itanium chip – Feb08 onto new Itanium chip – Feb08

The new 65-nanometer Tukwila Itanium processor, which is expected to be released at the end of 2009, will run at up to 2 GHz, have dual-integrated memory controllers and use Intel's QuickPath interconnect instead of a front-side bus. The processor also will have 2 billion transistors on one chip

BUT...What is a TRANSISTOR?• What KIND of Transistors are used?

• HOW are the Transistors MADE?
