The 3nm process technology refers to a semiconductor manufacturing technique that creates transistors with a size of just 3 nanometers. This smaller size allows for more transistors to fit on a chip, leading to improved performance and energy efficiency. It is a significant advancement over previous technologies, such as the 5nm process technology. This technology is crucial for developing faster and more powerful electronic devices, including smartphones and computers. Major companies like Intel and TSMC are investing in this technology to stay competitive in the rapidly evolving tech landscape.
