    Cost of advanced mobile LSI with multiple CPU cores, quite similar to camera chips.

    Note that all cameras LSI are still manufactured on 40nm or 28nm, no more. May be 22nm is used for some logic on mobile stacked sensors, but I am not sure.

    All sudden camera stop comes from big compacts sales drop and this chart. As companies now need find around $300-500 millions to just try to make next step. And move to standard camera OS is highly incompatible with Japanese mentality, and also requires around $10-20 billions.
