In modern chip design, the nanometer (nm) size of a chipset refers to the width of the smallest features on a semiconductor device, such as transistors and interconnects.
Smaller nanometer chips are faster, more energy-efficient, and allow for more transistors to fit on a single chip, enhancing performance and battery life. For instance, 2 nm technology is smaller than a strand of DNA and powers advanced smartphones, computers, and AI.
While these innovations improve device efficiency, they also present challenges like overheating and manufacturing complexity, which engineers address with new designs and materials.
