Intel – Everyone’s Favourite Second Source?

Intel – Everyone’s Favourite Second Source?

A response to Daniel Nenni’s “What’s Wrong with Intel?” article, which invited alternative views.

At the risk of calling down the forecast universal opprobrium, I’m going to disagree with Dan’s take on the centrality of Intel.

I don’t agree that Intel is too big/important to fail or that the US can’t succeed in semiconductors without… Read More

An Invited Talk at IDEM Intel’s Mr. Transistor Presents The Incredible Shrinking Transistor – Shattering Perceived Barriers and Forging Ahead

IEDM turned 70 last week. This was cause for much celebration in the form of special events. One such event was a special invited paper on Tuesday afternoon from Intel’s Tahir Ghani, or Mr. Transistor as he is known. Tahir has been driving innovation at Intel for a very long time. He is an eyewitness to the incredible impact of the Moore’s… Read More

Intel Inside

One of the most popular topics on the SemiWiki forum is Intel, which I understand. Many of us grew up with Intel, some of us have worked there, and I can say that the vast majority of us want Intel to succeed. The latest Intel PR debacle is the abrupt departure of CEO Pat Gelsinger. To me this confirms the answer to the question, “What is … Read More

DAC Roundup – Intel’s Gary Patton Shows the Way to a Systems Foundry

#61DAC was buzzing this year with talk of AI and multi-die, heterogeneous design. The promise of making 2.5/3D design and a chiplet ecosystem mainstream reality was the focus of a lot of the panels and presentations at the conference. AI is certainly a driver for this new design style, but the conversation was broader than just AI,… Read More

TSMC Intel

In December 2023, we published the Intel Revenue forecast for external wafer sales, gave a breakdown on how customers plan to ramp the foundry. The forecast is still valid (it assumes Intel executes on all plans) but since then we have a better understanding of Intel’s strategy and scenarios that could unfold.

The scenarios… Read More

Figure 1

On Wednesday, February 21st Intel held their first Foundry Direct Connect event. The event had both public and NDA sessions, and I was in both. In this article I will summarize what I learned (that is not covered by NDA) about Intel’s business, process, and wafer fab plans (my focus is process technology and wafer fabs).
