What's rolling out in 2016?
New 28nm options for RF and eNVM (embedded non-volatile memory); 14nm LPC: A third-generation cost-optimized 14nm process node. 14nm will also get an RF option as an add-on this year; 10nm: Samsung will debut a 10nm LPP (Low Power Plus) with 10% better performance than Low Power Early. A few notes on these milestones: When a foundry says its ramping a product solution, that doesn't mean that technology is actually ready for shipping customer designs yet. There's a significant lag time depending on product family, foundry space, and customer validation -- Apple bought early 14nm production
