Does anybody know where to find schematics of the interior of modern processors for lithography? Not brand new, as far back as 32nm nodes? Or where to begin with this search?

In summary, processor interior schematics are detailed diagrams and information about the internal components and connections of a processor. They are created using specialized software tools and include details such as the layout of the CPU, memory, input/output interfaces, and other components. These schematics are used in the development of new processors by providing a visual representation of the design and helping to identify potential issues. They are not publicly available and are typically only shared within a company or organization.

I doubt you can get this. First, Intel has as much incentive to release this as Coke has of releasing their formula. Second, these chips have a billion transistors on them. Schematics would be too large to use.

Try the U.S. Patent Office:
http://patft.uspto.gov/netahtml/PTO/srchnum.htm
Enter 4010449 in the query entry box. That is for the 8080 CPU from March, 1977.

1. What is the purpose of processor interior schematics?
The purpose of processor interior schematics is to provide detailed diagrams and information about the internal components and connections of a processor. This helps engineers and designers understand how the processor works and how to optimize its performance.
2. How are processor interior schematics created?
Processor interior schematics are created using specialized software tools that allow engineers to design and simulate the internal structure and connections of a processor. These tools also help in identifying any potential issues and optimizing the design for better performance.
3. What information can be found in processor interior schematics?
Processor interior schematics typically include details such as the layout of the central processing unit (CPU), memory, input/output interfaces, and other components. They also show the connections between these components and how data flows through the processor.
4. How are processor interior schematics used in the development of new processors?
Processor interior schematics are used in the development of new processors by providing a visual representation of the design. Engineers can use these schematics to identify potential bottlenecks and improve the overall performance of the processor. They also help in identifying any manufacturing or design flaws that need to be addressed.
5. Are processor interior schematics publicly available?
No, processor interior schematics are usually considered proprietary information and are not publicly available. They are typically only shared between engineers and designers within a company or organization working on the development of a processor. However, some basic schematics may be available for educational purposes.
