The transistor count is the number of transistors in an electronic device (typically on a single substrate or silicon die).It is the most common measure of integrated circuit complexity (although the majority of transistors in modern microprocessors are contained in cache memories, which consist mostly of the same memory cell circuits replicated many times).
AMD began using TSMC 7 nm starting with the Vega 20 GPU in November 2018, [128] with Zen 2-based CPUs and APUs from July 2019, [129] and for both PlayStation 5 [130] and Xbox Series X/S [131] consoles' APUs, released both in November 2020.
As of 2022, the commercially available processor possessing one of the highest numbers of transistors is an AD102 graphics processor with more than 76,3 billion transistors. [139] Density at minimum cost per transistor – This is the formulation given in Moore's 1965 paper. [1]
According to Semianalysis, the A14 processor has a transistor density of 134 million transistors per mm 2. [28] In October 2021, TSMC introduced a new member of its "5 nm" process family: N4P. Compared to N5, the node offered 11% higher performance (6% higher vs N4), 22% higher power efficiency, 6% higher transistor density and lower mask count.
Ada Lovelace, also referred to simply as Lovelace, [1] is a graphics processing unit (GPU) microarchitecture developed by Nvidia as the successor to the Ampere architecture, officially announced on September 20, 2022.
An organic package could not host the number of wires that would be needed to connect multiple dies in a GPU. [9] RDNA 3's dies are instead connected using TSMC's Integrated Fan-Out Re-Distribution Layer (InFO-RDL) packaging technique which provides a silicon bridge for high bandwidth and high density die-to-die communication.

The same microarchitecture was also announced to be used for an upcoming flagship Samsung Exynos SoC, [39] later introduced in January 2022 as Exynos 2200, utilizing a custom Xclipse 920 GPU with 3 workgroup processors. [40] [41] An RDNA 2 integrated GPU with 2 compute units is included in the I/O die on AMD's Zen 4-based Ryzen 7000 Series CPUs.
In September 2018, Nvidia released GPUs based on their Turing (microarchitecture), which were made on TSMC's "12 nm" process and had a transistor density of 24.67 million transistors per square millimeter. [43] [needs update]
