In a surprise attack against Intel, GlobalFoundries accelerated its semiconductor roadmap by announcing plans for a 14-nanometer chip using FinFET technology. The breakthrough chip is due by 2014, just one year after the foundry’s 20-nanometer offering hits production. A bold move because roadmaps rarely get tested or altered, even bolder because FinFET designs, headed for mobile devices, represent a radical transformation from planar to 3-D transistors.
