Star Intel Claims Ultra Low Power Breakthrough
Linked by Andrew Youll on Tue 20th Sep 2005 19:24 UTC, submitted by kellym
Intel Chip firm Intel said it is developing an ultra low power version of the 65 nanometre process technology specifically for notebooks and other small devices. The firm said that with transistors on some chips over the billion mark, it has developed tech which it claims will cut down leakage by 10 000 times.

Seems math isn't required for reporters anymore.

As evidence it quotes leakage current figures: 100nA per micron for the standard 65nm process compared to 0.01nA per micron for P1265.

Last I checked, 100/.01 was 10000, not 1000. ;)

The synopsis I used is the synopsis submitted by kellym, I just glanced over the linked piece, I will correct the error.

I wasn't faulting you, but the original article. The quote I used wasn't even from the linked article, but from another that had more info, but STILL had the same wrong figure. ;)
