The semiconductor industry will soon abandon its pursuit of Moore’s law. Now things could get a lot more interesting. http://www.nature.com/news/the-chips-are-down-for-moore-s-law-1.19338 Posted from WordPress for Android →
Let’s continue the VGA theme I started in VGA memories and future posting. Here are some VGA hacking ideas on using VGA graphics adapter for non-traditional uses. VGA connectors and cables carry analog component RGBHV (red, green, blue, horizontal sync, vertical sync) video signals, and VESA Display Data Channel (VESA DDC) data. Those analog component →
For almost three decades monitors, computers and multiple televisions have found to have a VGA connector. A Video Graphics Array (VGA) connector is a three-row 15-pin DE-15 connector. The 15-pin VGA connector is found on many video cards, computer monitors, and high definition television sets. VGA connectors and cables carry analog component RGBHV (red, green, →
In what feels like a fairly historic moment, Intel has effectively called an end to the long-running Moore’s Law. The Law itself dictates that transistor density on chips will double every 18 months to two years, effectively doubling the performance capabilities. Not so anymore according to Intel executive VP William Holt, who admitted as much →
