I'm searching for a particular Pentium 4 to use for die shots. There are many CPUs with the name Pentium 4, and some appear similar but have different internal die sizes. I checked the spec sheets to locate the die sizer for this CPU, which is linked here: https://ark.intel.com/content/www/us/en/...z-fsb.html

The actual dimensions of the silicon are precisely defined.

Typically, the real processor silicon is shielded by a structural layer before reaching the transistors.
