Cannon Lake (formerly Skymont) is Intel's codename for the 10th generation of Core processors based on Palm Cove, a 10 nm die shrink of the Kaby Lake microarchitecture. As a die shrink, Palm Cove is a new process in Intel's process-architecture-optimization execution plan as the next step in semiconductor fabrication.[1] Cannon Lake CPUs are the first mainstream CPUs to include the AVX-512 instruction set.

Prior to Cannon Lake's launch, Intel launched another 14 nm process refinement with the codename Coffee Lake.[2]

The successor of Cannon Lake is Ice Lake, powered by the Sunny Cove microarchitecture, which represents the architecture phase in the process-architecture-optimization model.[3][4]
