1.5 μm process

The 1.5 µm process is the level of semiconductor process technology that was reached around 1982 by leading semiconductor companies such as Intel and IBM.

Products featuring 1.5 µm manufacturing process

Intel 80286 CPU launched in 1982 was manufactured using this process.^[1]
The Amiga Advanced Graphics Architecture (initially sold in 1992) included chips such as Denise that were manufactured using a 1.5 µm CMOS process.^[2]
