News item on digital technology

What an attractive idea!

This article tells us about new magnetic chips which could mean future computers. The most astonishing is that they use a millionth of the energy which chips need today.

It also tells us that this new technology has been shown that magnetic chips can operate with the lowest level of energy dissipation possible under laws of physics, it means a huge saving of energy.

It also mentions that for the first time, the “Landauer limit” has been demonstrated experimentally since it was argued in 1961 by an IBM researcher.

However, it will take a long time before the technology will be able to put into practical production.

In addition this news article explains us what is magnetic computing.

So, it tells that the new kind of computing uses tiny magnetic bars, instead of conventional transistors which rely on the movement of electrons to switch between zeros and ones. In conventional computing takes a lot of energy.

Another amazing datum is that each bit is a tiny bar magnet only 90 nanometres long.

This article is really interesting because we have discovered a new technology that will allow us to use the processing part of every machine which uses electronic stuff like chips with the minimum energy possible. It means that we would have lot of energy that we could use for another sectors and for sure the bills will low the pay.
