SAN FRANCISCO — After a long delay, Intel will start shipping its first 10-nm processors in June, consistent with the schedule the company has been communicating since last year, executives said.

Intel also plans to begin shipping 7-nm processors in 2021, executives told analysts at the company’s annual investor day. The 7-nm process technology will mark Intel’s first use of extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography.

Murthy Renduchintala, Intel’s chief engineering officer and president of the company’s Technology, Systems Architecture and Client Group, reiterated that Intel’s first 10-nm processors to ship will be its Ice Lake notebook PC processors. Renduchintala added that Intel plans to launch several 10-nm products in 2019 and 2020.
