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
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
Photo by Taylor Hammersla on Unsplash Semiconductor capacity has been the most talked-about topic due to the semiconductor shortage. Companies and countries are upgrading or building semiconductor manufacturing to cater to ever-increasing demand. However, simply increasing the semiconductor capacity is not the answer and often comes with several techniques to
Photo by L N on Unsplash Semiconductor products often fail, and finding the root cause thus becomes a critical process. More so, when the product is already in production. Failure and root cause analysis are vital steps towards finding issues with the semiconductor product. Doing so requires an inspection process
Photo by Nick Fewings on Unsplash There are several parts to semiconductor product development, and without cross-industry collaboration and standardization, it is impossible to move forward (next-gen solutions). Collaboration and standardization have triggered several innovative solutions that have only taken the semiconductor industry forward. These strategic approaches come in different
Photo by ThisisEngineering RAEng on Unsplash Software is the backbone of several industries, including semiconductor. Several (maybe all) semiconductor activities cannot work without a software solution and are valid for several key stages like design, manufacturing, supply chain, and many more. This growing reliance on several stages is the primary
Photo by Alina Grubnyak on Unsplash There is not a single industry that does not rely on strategic partnerships. The semiconductor industry is no different, and semiconductor companies have to rely on a strategic partnership to achieve the goal of a successful product launch. The semiconductor industry has several different
Photo by Justin Luebke on Unsplash The semiconductor industry is going through a wave of consolidation. It is not the first time the semiconductor industry is marching through such a wave. However, everyone time it does, it often has positive and negative impacts. The reduction in the number of companies
Photo by Clem Onojeghuo on Unsplash The key factors to gauge the impact of any industry are by capturing: economic activity and employment generation. These two factors also apply to the semiconductor industry and are evident from year-on-year impact and growth. The economic impact is dependent on job creation. Thus,

Ten teams and twenty drivers will compete for the next ten months by running high-speed cars across twenty-two different types of racing circuits located in several parts of the world. The team with consistent results, flawless drivers,
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.
