Oscillator for adiabatic computational circuitry (US11671054)
Granted Patent | Granted on: 2023-06-06 “An adiabatic system is one that ideally transfers no heat outside of the system, thereby reducing the required operating power. The adiabatic resonator, which includes a plurality of tank circuits, acts as an energy reservoir, the missing aspect of previously attempted adiabatic computational systems.”

“Marketing vs “Real” Performance
This observation that DICE GPUs are unable to sustain their peak clock speed due to power throttling is one of the primary factors that separates “real” matmul performance from Nvidia’s marketed specs.”

“DICE On-chip thermal hotspots are becoming one of the primary design concerns for next generation processors. Industry chip design trends coupled with post-Dennard power density has led to a stark increase in localized and application-dependent hotspots. These “advanced” hotspots cause a variety of adverse effects if untreated, ranging from dramatic performance loss, incorrect circuit operation, and reduced device lifespan. In the past, hotspots could be addressed with physical cooling systems and EDA tools; however, the severity of advanced hotspots is prohibitively high for conventional thermal regulation techniques alone.”

The smallest line spacing for the regular EUV in production is actually around 13nm. High-NA gets to around 10nm.

It’s Monte Carlo roulette for the mouth (especially with those drippingly secret sauces!)! Accordingly, and within this rather specific perpspective of menu-driven algorithmic gastronomy, could Intel Foundries be on its way to becoming the high NA Burger King to TSMC’s evolutive McWafer (or not!)? “Inquisition minds” … 8^p
