Intel Foundry Demonstrates First Arm-Based Chip on 18A Node


In a now-privated video, Intel revealed Deer Creek Falls, an Arm-based SoC built on 18A with 'ecosystem' IP.

That could explain why the company posted a video today on its YouTube channel showing off "Deer Creek Falls", a new "reference SoC" fabricated on its 18A process.The video has since been removed, which is why we're crediting TechPowerUp on the screenshots, but it clearly showed Deer Creek Falls, the "Intel Foundry's Reference SOC With Ecosystem IPs and non-x86 Cores." This three-tier CPU core configuration is typical of a great many Arm-based SoCs, such as the Snapdragon 8 line from Qualcomm. Probably because it's trying to attract external customers, and there's a whole lot more companies building Arm SoCs than there are firms pitching x86-64 processors.
