New technology Chips will be out in sooner future.

The Chip maker Sony, Toshiba and NEC Electronics, on Thursday said that they had jointly developed technology to mass produce cutting-edge chips. NEC Electronics and Toshiba are also working to standardise technology to make advanced chips with circuitry width of 45 nanometre or finer with Fujitsu and Renesas Tech. Corp. The platform developed by the three Japanese companies will be used to make system chips, which combine multiple functions on a sliver of silicon, using 45 nanometre, the firms said in the joint press release. Chip makers worldwide are locked in a race to lower production costs on 90, 65 and 45 nanometre chips, with the smaller circuitry widths allowing more power per chip for complex devices. The three companies are developing a platform for low power consumtion chips, to be completed in early of 2007. Toshiba and NEC Electronics are also working to standardise technology to make advanced chips with circuitry width of 45 nanometre or finer with Fujitsu and Renesas Tech. Corp. Other companies that unable to follow them will may lead to lower profit and the trend of 45 nanometre will start to boost up, if other chip maker are able to produce cheaper cost.
