Nanocomputer is the logical name for a computer smaller than the microcomputer, which is smaller than the minicomputer.

Smallest computers today




nano computer - this is nano computer must watch and like.

Microelectronic components that are at the core of all modern electronic devices employ semiconductor transistors. The term nanocomputer is increasingly used to refer to general computing devices of size comparable to a credit card. The first use of this name appears to be to describe the s1mp3 manufactured by The Flying Electron Inc. (7 November 2008). It is now used for a wider range of devices, such as

  • Arduino
  • BeagleBoard
  • Olinuxino
  • Odroid
  • Miracast dongles
  • All the PC-on-a-stick (MK802 series...)
  • Raspberry Pi

Future computers smaller than 10 nanometers

Eventually computers will be developed with fundamental parts that are no bigger than a few nanometers. There are several ways nanocomputers might be built, using mechanical, electronic, biochemical, or quantum technology.

Consensus among hardware developers has been that is unlikely that nanocomputers will be made out of semiconductor transistors, as they seem to perform significantly less well when shrunk to sizes under 100 nanometers. Although developers have reduced microprocessors to 22 nm as of April 2012. Moreover, Intel's 5 nanometer technology outlook predicts 5 nm feature size by 2022. The International Technology Roadmap for Semiconductors gives an industrial consensus on feature scaling following Moore's Law.

Note that a Silicon-Silicon bond length is 235.2 pm, which means that a 5 nm-width transistor would be 21 silicon atoms wide.
