Moore's law

Moore's law
Plot of CPU transistor counts against dates of introduction. Note the logarithmic vertical
scale; the line corresponds to exponential growth with transistor count doubling every two
years.
An Osborne Executive portable computer, from
1982 with a Zilog Z80 4MHz CPU, and a 2007
Apple iPhone with a 412MHz ARM11 CPU. The
Executive weighs 100 times as much, is nearly
500 times as large by volume, costs
approximately 10 times as much (adjusting for
inflation), and has 1/100th the clock frequency of
the phone.
Moore's law is the observation that
over the history of computing
hardware, the number of transistors on
integrated circuits doubles
approximately every two years. The
period often quoted as "18 months" is
due to Intel executive David House,
who predicted that period for a
doubling in chip performance (being a
combination of the effect of more
transistors and their being faster).
[1]
The law is named after Intel
co-founder Gordon E. Moore, who
described the trend in his 1965
paper.
[2][3][4]
The paper noted that the
number of components in integrated
circuits had doubled every year from
the invention of the integrated circuit
in 1958 until 1965 and predicted that
the trend would continue "for at least
ten years".
[5]
His prediction has proven
to be uncannily accurate, in part
because the law is now used in the
semiconductor industry to guide
long-term planning and to set targets
for research and development.
[6]
The capabilities of many digital
electronic devices are strongly linked
to Moore's law: processing speed,
memory capacity, sensors and even the
number and size of pixels in digital
cameras.
[7]
All of these are improving
at (roughly) exponential rates as well
(see Other formulations and similar
laws). This exponential improvement
has dramatically enhanced the impact
of digital electronics in nearly every segment of the world economy.
[8]
Moore's law describes a driving force of
technological and social change in the late 20th and early 21st centuries.
[9][10]
This trend has continued for more than half a century. Sources in 2005 expected it to continue until at least 2015 or
2020.
[11][12]
However, the 2010 update to the International Technology Roadmap for Semiconductors has growth
slowing at the end of 2013,
[13]
after which time transistor counts and densities are to double only every three years.

History
Gordon Moore in 2006
The term "Moore's law" was coined around 1970 by the Caltech
professor, VLSI pioneer, and entrepreneur Carver Mead in reference
to a statement by Gordon E. Moore.
[3][14]
Predictions of similar
increases in computer power had existed years prior. Alan Turing in
his 1950 paper Computing Machinery and Intelligence had predicted
that by the turn of the millennium, we would have "computers with a
storage capacity of about 10
9
", what today we would call "128
megabytes." Moore may have heard Douglas Engelbart, a
co-inventor of today's mechanical computer mouse, discuss the
projected downscaling of integrated circuit size in a 1960 lecture.
[15]
A New York Times article published August 31, 2009, credits
Engelbart as having made the prediction in 1959.
[16]
Moore's original statement that transistor counts had doubled every year can be found in his publication "Cramming
more components onto integrated circuits", Electronics Magazine 19 April 1965:
The complexity for minimum component costs has increased at a rate of roughly a factor of two per year...
Certainly over the short term this rate can be expected to continue, if not to increase. Over the longer term, the
rate of increase is a bit more uncertain, although there is no reason to believe it will not remain nearly constant
for at least 10 years. That means by 1975, the number of components per integrated circuit for minimum cost
will be 65,000. I believe that such a large circuit can be built on a single wafer.
[2]
Moore slightly altered the formulation of the law over time, in retrospect bolstering the perceived accuracy of his
law.
[17]
Most notably, in 1975, Moore altered his projection to a doubling every two years.
[18][19]
Despite popular
misconception, he is adamant that he did not predict a doubling "every 18 months." However, David House, an Intel
colleague, had factored in the increasing performance of transistors to conclude that integrated circuits would double
in performance every 18€months.
[20]
In April 2005, Intel offered US$10,000 to purchase a copy of the original Electronics Magazine issue in which
Moore's article appeared.
[21]
An engineer living in the United Kingdom was the first to find a copy and offer it to
Intel.

Other formulations and similar laws
PC hard disk capacity (in GB). The plot is logarithmic, so the fitted line corresponds to
exponential growth.
Several measures of digital technology
are improving at exponential rates
related to Moore's law, including the
size, cost, density and speed of
components. Moore himself wrote only
about the density of components (or
transistors) at minimum cost.
Transistors per integrated circuit.
The most popular formulation is of the
doubling of the number of transistors
on integrated circuits every two years.
At the end of the 1970s, Moore's law
became known as the limit for the
number of transistors on the most
complex chips. The graph at the top
shows this trend holds true today.
Density at minimum cost per
transistor. This is the formulation given in Moore's 1965 paper.
[2]
It is not just about the density of transistors that
can be achieved, but about the density of transistors at which the cost per transistor is the lowest.
[23]
As more
transistors are put on a chip, the cost to make each transistor decreases, but the chance that the chip will not work
due to a defect increases. In 1965, Moore examined the density of transistors at which cost is minimized, and
observed that, as transistors were made smaller through advances in photolithography, this number would increase at
"a rate of roughly a factor of two per year".
[2]
Current state-of-the-art photolithography tools use deep ultraviolet
(DUV) light from excimer lasers with wavelengths of 248 and 193€nm — the dominant lithography technology
today is thus also called "excimer laser lithography"
[24][25]
— which has enabled minimum feature sizes in chip
manufacturing to shrink from 0.5 micrometer in 1990 to 45 nanometers and below in 2010. This trend is expected to
continue into this decade for even denser chips, with minimum features approaching 10 nanometers. Excimer laser
lithography has thus played a critical role in the continued advance of Moore's Law for the last 20 years.
[26]
Hard disk storage cost per unit of information. A similar law (sometimes called Kryder's Law) has held for hard
disk storage cost per unit of information.
[27]
The rate of progression in disk storage over the past decades has
actually sped up more than once, corresponding to the utilization of error correcting codes, the magnetoresistive
effect and the giant magnetoresistive effect. The current rate of increase in hard drive capacity is roughly similar to
the rate of increase in transistor count. Recent trends show that this rate has been maintained into 2007.
[28]
Network capacity. According to Gerry/Gerald Butters,
[29][30]
the former head of Lucent's Optical Networking
Group at Bell Labs, there is another version, called Butter's Law of Photonics,
[31]
a formulation which deliberately
parallels Moore's law. Butter's law
[32]
says that the amount of data coming out of an optical fiber is doubling every
nine months. Thus, the cost of transmitting a bit over an optical network decreases by half every nine months. The
availability of wavelength-division multiplexing (sometimes called "WDM") increased the capacity that could be
placed on a single fiber by as much as a factor of 100. Optical networking and dense wavelength-division
multiplexing (DWDM) is rapidly bringing down the cost of networking, and further progress seems assured. As a
result, the wholesale price of data traffic collapsed in the dot-com bubble. Nielsen's Law says that the bandwidth
available to users increases by 50% annually.
