How Huawei’s Kunpeng 960 Uses the τ Law and 3‑D Stacking to Defy Moore’s Law

Amid global semiconductor bottlenecks, Huawei’s Kunpeng line shifts from 2‑D planar CPUs to 3‑D stacked architectures, with the 950 introducing a two‑layer design and the upcoming 960 promising a three‑layer stack, 4 GHz clocks and a 54% performance boost, illustrating the τ scaling theory and a new supernode strategy that could reshape domestic and global server markets.
