Intel has entered the risk production phase of its next-generation 18A-P process node at the 2026 IEEE/JSAP VLSI Technology & Circuits Symposium, signaling a significant step in its turnaround strategy. The 18A-P is an optimized version of the standard 18A node, delivering a 9% boost in clock speed

At the VLSI Symposium in June 2026, Intel Foundry unveiled updates on its new 18A-P process technology, a 2nm-class manufacturing node aimed at the foundry market and now in risk production. The 18A-P process builds upon Intel's previous 18A technology, integrating gate-all-around (GAA) transistor a
