Arm’s Bengaluru office to focus on designing advanced 2nm nodes: Vaishnaw

British semiconductor company Arm’s new Bengaluru facility will focus on designing cutting-edge chips, including advanced two-nanometre (2nm) nodes, union electronics and IT minister Ashwini Vaishnaw told reporters in Bengaluru on Tuesday.

This will make “India a critical site for advanced semiconductor R&D,” he said.

Smaller chips are more advanced, denser, faster and more power-efficient than bigger ones.
