A: Greetings NM is a abbreviation for nanometer. A nanometer is a unit of measure. If you know what a Meter is (another unit of measure) is (about 39 inches). A nanometer is one billionth of a meter.

What is a nanometer http://www.nanooze.org/english/articles/article4_howbigisananometer.html In computer mfg, the object is to size the transistors as small as you can in the smallest space. Right now 45MN is the size being produced for use in computer processors. So its not 45nm or 65nm being better, its about describing the the size of the components on the chip. You get more with 45nm. Saucer vs Dinner plates on a table as an example. Does that clear it up for you Regards Siz
