NM (nanometer) is a term used to describe the size of the transistors that make up the processor.The smaller the size the more transistors can fit into the same area and the more powerful and energy-efficient the processor can be. For example a 7nm processor has transistors that are 7 nanometers in size whereas a 14nm processor has transistors that are 14 nanometers in size.The smaller size of the 7nm transistors allows more of them to be packed onto the processor resulting in better performance and lower power consumption compared to a processor with larger transistors. The importance of the size of transistors in a processor lies in the fact that it directly affects the performance and power efficiency of the processor.As the size of the transistors gets smaller the processor can perform more calculations per clock cycle which increases its overall speed and efficiency.Additionally smaller transistors require less power to switch on and of which reduces the power consumption and...
