IT LOOKS LIKE Fermi A2 silicon has finally taped out, so the timetables are a little firmer once again. There is no chance of a real launch in 2009, making the chip a shining example of Nvidia's engineering mire.

Nvidia finally gets Fermi A2 taped out?

... no chance. During not-Nvision/GDC, Nvidia was telling people who mattered and AIBs not to expect Fermi until March. Internally it was saying May, but the AIBs were not told that. About the A2 tapeout time, Nvidia's AIB messaging was changed to April or May. It would be safe to read into this that the A2 stepping is not going to cut it, and an A3 spin is on the cards. Eight weeks added to early February gets you into March, so that lines up nicely with what Nvidia is telling people. http://www.semiaccurate.com/2009/11/...-a2-taped-out/

... foundry, or the production board may fail functionality checks in its shakedown cruise. Should either of these scenarios unfold, the circuit designer must commit itself to a new revision–a respin–which takes about 4-6 weeks from debugging to the very first test boards. Should that revision get a green light, you can add another 6-8 weeks for production boards. Not only does NVIDIA have a history of going retail with A2 or A3 revision silicon, but some reports say that A2 silicon has only just taped out . In a best case scenario, NVIDIA will have A2 back by the first week of ...
