International Technology Roadmap for Semiconductors (ITRS)

The International Technology Roadmap for Semiconductors (ITRS) is a strategic plan guiding the development of new semiconductor (chip) technologies over time. It forecasts future challenges and sets goals for improving chip performance, power efficiency, and miniaturization. Leading industry organizations collaborate to align research and manufacturing efforts, ensuring that as electronic devices become more powerful and compact, the underlying chips can keep pace. Essentially, ITRS helps the global semiconductor industry coordinate innovation to meet the increasing demands for faster, smaller, and more efficient electronic components.
