NVIDIA AD102 "Ada" Packs Over 75 Billion Transistors

NVIDIA's next-generation AD102 "Ada" GPU is shaping up to be a monstrosity, with a rumored transistor-count north of 75 billion. This would put over 2.6 times the 28.3 billion transistors of the current-gen GA102 silicon. NVIDIA is reportedly building the AD102 on the TSMC N5 (5 nm EUV) node, which offers a significant transistor-density uplift over the Samsung 8LPP (8 nm DUV) node on which the GA102 is built. The 8LPP offers 44.56 million transistors per mm die-area (MTr/mm), while the N5 offers a whopping 134 MTr/mm, which fits in with the transistor-count gain. This would put its die-area in the neighborhood of 560 mm. The AD102 is expected to power high-end RTX 40-series SKUs in the RTX 4090-series and RTX 4080-series.
