The Semiconductor Value Flow

Photo by Skye Studios on Unsplash Industries and companies worldwide are focused on creating value, without which it is not possible to survive the customer-driven market. The semiconductor industry is no different and has consistently added value over the last four decades. The value created by the semiconductor industry has enabled different other connected industries. It is evident based on the fact that semiconductor-focused solutions have become critical pillars for businesses that need innovative semiconductor-powered products. Value Flow: Solutions and products that take the semiconductor and other connected industries forward. To generate value consistently requires executing flawless strategy, which the semiconductor industry (mainly companies focused on product development) has carried out for decades. This value generation ranges from technology node, equipment, process development, package technology, raw material improvement, etc. There […]

The Need To Open Source Semiconductors

Photo by Shahadat Rahman on Unsplash Semiconductor end-to-end product development is a highly complex process. The majority of these processes are also proprietary. Developing a proprietary process is vital as it allows companies to bring innovation and never-seen-before products and solutions, which in the long term drive market position and revenue. However, opening up certain parts of the process is also vital for knowledge building. In the software industry, there have been numerous open source solutions. Doing so has only benefitted the software industry, which has enabled the development of new software-driven ideas. On top, it has powered a collaborative environment that drives knowledge building. In comparison, the semiconductor industry is far behind. Open hardware has been around, but it has not helped the semiconductor industry. The main reason is

The Process Of Building Semiconductor Ecosystem

Photo by Shubham Dhage on Unsplash The end-to-end semiconductor design and manufacturing are dependent on the ecosystem. It is evident from the regions that have become a pillar of the semiconductor industry. These regions have grown steadily for decades while creating business and employment opportunities. Developing a semiconductor ecosystem is not an easy process. It demands time, resources, and capital, which are not easy to come by together. Existing semiconductor ecosystems have been around for more than two to three decades and thus have become a benchmark for the upcoming semiconductor regions. New regions that want to attract semiconductor businesses should focus on creating a semiconductor ecosystem. Doing so requires following a set process to bring together different building blocks of the semiconductor industry. These fundamental blocks create a platform

The Ever-Increasing Share Of Semiconductor In Automotive

Photo by Chris Liverani on Unsplash Automotive has always been an integral part of day-to-day life. Worldwide, billions of people drive vehicles, and the goal is the same: reaching the next destination safely and on time. Achieving this goal is only possible due to the different features and components that come together to enable an end product that can zoom safely. A lot of effort goes behind the scenes to meet customer demand and automotive safety requirements. Any given vehicle demands thousands of tiny parts procured (or manufactured) from different vendors. Eventually, all these components need to work synchronously to provide the safest ride possible. Safety: Silicon products enable real-time decision-making, a must-have feature for maintaining the standard of automotive safety. Autonomy: Autonomy focuses on assisting safe rides, and it requires error-free silicon products that
