MOOREıS UNLAW
So, now weıve got AnyGate. A few months
back, I covered OneGate from ON Semiconductor. Whatıs next, NoGate?
Speed will be excellent because NoGate means no gate delay, right?
I suppose itıll also be NoPower, but Iım sure it wonıt be NoPrice.
Micrelıs latest quarterly financial report
states revenues are up 72% from a year ago and profits have more than
doubled. I guess it shouldnıt be a surprise because any company that
can pull off charging more than 10 bucks a gate ($10.25, in 1000s)
definitely has bright prospects. AnyGate sets a new high (low?) in
pricing, putting Mooreıs law on its head.
Hold on Mr. Moore, donıt get any ideas.
Thereıs no way Intelıs getting a million bucks per chip!
