Toshiba To Test Sub-25nm NAND Flash

An anonymous reader writes "Toshiba plans to spend about $159.8 million this year to build a test production line for NAND flash memory chips of less than 25 nanometers. The company hopes to kick off mass production of the chip as early as 2012. The fabrication facility for this key NAND flash memory will be located at Yokkaichi, Mie Prefecture."

I thought microSD was small. I'm going to lose this stuff for sure!

That's what they're hoping!

When does it stop?

Over the last decade, I keep seeing these manufacturing processes grow ever smaller. I still remember when I bought my Athlon FX-55. 130nm process. Aw hell yeah. It's currently living the remainder of its life in one of my guest boxes. God that chip was such a waste of money, but I digress.

For those in the know, this ever shrinking manufacturing process tech: when will it stop? Where will it stop? 10nm? Sub-1nm?
