At the 'Technology Update 2025' event, Fujitsu disclosed comprehensive plans for its brand - new Arm - architecture Monaka processor. The Monaka series is set to be the cornerstone of the company's next - generation core CPU platform for data centers. The first batch of products is anticipated to go into mass production in 2027, leveraging 2nm process technology.
This processor is built on the Armv9 instruction set architecture and boasts 144 enhanced cores. In terms of manufacturing, it will be crafted using TSMC's 2nm process. Moreover, it will be stacked face - to - face on SRAM modules through hybrid copper bonding technology, which is a cutting - edge approach in the semiconductor industry.
The Monaka processor also incorporates the SVE2 instruction set, enabling support for variable - length vector registers. From a security perspective, it comes equipped with advanced security features, such as the confidential computing architecture of Armv9 - A. This ensures a high level of data protection and privacy in data center environments.
Furthermore, Fujitsu has shared its iteration plans for the Monaka series. The MONAKA - X is scheduled to make its debut in 2029, featuring 1.4nm process technology. The company is also conducting research on integrating a Neural Processing Unit (NPU) into this model. Looking ahead, the MONAKA - XX is set to arrive in 2031. It aims to achieve a seamless fusion of CPU and NPU architectures and apply the most advanced process technologies available at that time.
