Photo by İsmail Enes Ayhan on Unsplash THE NEED TO PROCESS DATA Internet usage is growing. Every new user generates a new type of data. The technology companies are always eager to process and understand new consumer behavior. It requires continuous research and development of both the software and the
Photo by Jason Leung on Unsplash THE SEMICONDUCTOR INDUSTRY STATUS In 2020, the semiconductor industry has seen both negative and positive trends. The first half of 2020 showed mostly the negative trend driven by the COVID-19 restrictions, as it lead to slower semiconductor production and increased inventory due to decreasing sales. The second
Photo by Vishnu Mohanan on Unsplash THE GROWTH OF DATA IN THE SEMICONDUCTOR MANUFACTURING The growth of digitization has led to the generation of massive amounts of data on day to day basis. The data explosion has pushed several industries to adapt to data-driven analysis and decision-making processes. The same
Photo by Laurel and Michael Evans on Unsplash Industry 1.0 was all about the transfer of manufacturing from humans to machines. Industry 2.0 increased productivity by using technology-enabled information and faster transfer of goods. With Industry 3.0, computers took over machines and allowed efficient manufacturing compared to Industry 2.0. Today, we are in
Photo by PCBWay Developing an electronic product requires a lot of iteration. A hardware electronic device has to go through a detailed design process which is followed by numerous prototyping and evaluation. It is often a time-consuming and cost-intensive process. Not all the development processes happen in the house. The majority
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.
