DALL-E The Surge In Fab Construction It is no secret that the semiconductor industry is seeing an unprecedented boom in FAB construction. We are not talking about incremental growth. We are witnessing a monumental shift in how and where these crucial facilities are built. Over 80 new

Few started construction based on the semiconductor shortages and the push to mitigate such a scenario in the future. These new FAB required

Apart from the technical and business hurdles, the ability to develop one specific type of semiconductor device node is not resource-friendly. It also drives

Any given FAB has hundred different types of these, and without the required tools and equipment, the FAB cannot work efficiently. One piece of equipment that drives the semiconductor

The primary reason impact semiconductor shortage had on all other industries that heavily rely on semiconductor solutions. One of the positive impacts of semiconductor shortage (which ideally should
