摩尔在1965年时曾经这样描述:“随着芯片上电路复杂度的提高,元件数目必将增加,然而每个元件的成本却每年下降一半”。芯片上元件的数量每两年增长一倍,Carve M ead首先将它称为“摩尔定律”。后来,此定律被修正为“每18个月增长一倍”。半导体产业界也曾经一度把跟上摩尔定律 Moore once described in 1965 as: “As the complexity of the circuit on the chip increases, the number of components is bound to increase, but the cost of each component is reduced by half each year.” The number of components on the chip doubles every two years, Carve Mad first called it “Moore’s Law.” Later, the law was revised to “double every 18 months.” Semiconductor industry once once again keep up with Moore’s Law
