This two-way hand-shake reliance has grown over the last decade (due to new software demand) and will only grow more in the
Photo by Jeremy Bezanger on Unsplash The semiconductor industry in 2020 grew at the rate of ~11% and is on its way to almost doubling it to ~18% in 2021. This growth is mainly due to the increasing share of semiconductor products in day-to-day life. Several high-tech solutions are running
Photo by Testalize.me on Unsplash Moore’s second law, or Rock’s law, states that the cost of a semiconductor manufacturing plant doubles every four years. It is in line with the increase in transistor density, which demands high-tech and advanced solutions which directly contribute to the cost of semiconductor manufacturing plant
Photo by samarth shirke on Unsplash Countries all over the world are coming up with policies and incentives targeted towards semiconductor manufacturers. It is due to the dependence countries will have on semiconductors which are the backbone of the digital economy. In the same line, India has also come up
Photo by Harrison Broadbent on Unsplash THE POSITIVES OF SEMICONDUCTOR POWERED FPGA Year on year, for decades, Moore’s law has inspired semiconductor designers and manufacturers to pack more devices in the same silicon area. It has thus provided the computing world with different types of semiconductor products to process the
Photo by Tyler Lastovich on Unsplash THE REASONS FOR BUILDING SEMICONDUCTOR MANUFACTURING IN INDIA By 2025, India will be one of the top electronics markets with an expected market size of over $500 Billion. The foundation of this market will be laid by the building blocks of electronics products: the
Photo by Thomas Jensen on Unsplash THE IMPACT OF SEMICONDUCTOR CHIPLETS ON DESIGN The process of developing chiplets based silicon chips (mainly XPUs) demands new semiconductor design and manufacturing methods. These methods are not drastically different than what the semiconductor industry developed in the last few decades. Still, the product
Photo by Patrick Lindenberg on Unsplash THE REASONS TO ADOPT IN-MEMORY SEMICONDUCTOR PROCESSING Over the last decades, both industry and academia have spent numerous hours to enable different types of semiconductor design and manufacturing methodology to drive next-gen processing units. These processing units today power the computing world and often
Photo by Suganth on Unsplash THE COMPLEXITY OF SINGLE-TECHNOLOGY-NODE ARCHITECTURE To ensure high-speed processing, one active component in a computer system – the Central Processing Unit (CPU) – has seen numerous technological advancements. The CPU advancements have been distributed equally on the design and the manufacturing aspect of the semiconductor
Photo by Louis Reed on Unsplash THE NEED FOR SEMICONDUCTOR DEVELOPMENT BOARD Semiconductor wafers are fabricated and assembled to produce packaged semiconductor products before it gets shipped to customers. In the production, silicon product then gets mounted onto a system platform. However, before the production line can use a semiconductor
Hi, I am Chetan Arvind Patil (chay-tun – how to pronounce), a semiconductor professional whose job is turning data into products for the semiconductor industry that powers billions of devices around the world. And while I like what I do, I also enjoy biking, working on few ideas, apart from writing, and talking about interesting developments in hardware, software, semiconductor and technology.
