-This list includes ITRS standard nodes only, tag devices at the nearest appropriate node.
+The intention of this table is to allow rough identification of a device's technology node.
-Please only tag devices whose process geometry is known for certain; this will allow us to more easily compare examples of devices at each node.

-FIXME: Include typical top/lower metal pitches
+Devices ≤ 90nm typically have thick top metal with a much larger design rule. There do not appear to be significant scaling trends in top metal pitch below 90nm,
+There are two Vcore columns. The typical numbers are the nominal operating voltages for standard process, the minimum numbers are the lowest voltages allowed for low-power versions of the process.
+Typically devices >180 nm are entirely Al metallization, <130 are Cu except for long-haul power routing. 130-180 can be either.
