The Semiconductor Growth Numbers are Insane but the Real World Doesn’t Tally!

The Semiconductor Growth Numbers are Insane but the Real World Doesn’t Tally!
by Malcolm Penn on 05-14-2026 at 8:00 am

The Chip Growth Numbers Are Insane

May’s WSTS Report saw March’s total monthly semiconductor sales up 88.1 percent vs. March 2025, albeit down 8.5 percent from February 2026.  This month-on-month decline needs to put in the context of February’s record-breaking 25.7 percent monthly growth.

This growth, however, was solely attributable to ICs, up 99.5 percent… Read More

Sensing. A Quantum Tech Ready for Market?
by Bernard Murphy on 05-13-2026 at 6:00 am

Quantum sensor analyzing a chip

While the quantum world revolves around quantum computing, (QC) there are a couple of other quantum technologies of note. I covered one of these, quantum communication, in a recent blog. Here I’ll introduce the other, quantum sensing. The goal is to use the high sensitivity of an individual quantum state to external factors such… Read More


Panel Discission: Beyond Moore’s Law and the Future of Semiconductor Manufacturing

Panel Discission: Beyond Moore’s Law and the Future of Semiconductor Manufacturing
by Daniel Nenni on 05-11-2026 at 6:00 am

Beyond Moore's Law Future of Manufacturing

The semiconductor industry is entering a post-Moore’s Law era in which scaling transistor density alone is no longer sufficient to sustain historical performance growth. As discussed in the panel Beyond Moore’s Law: The Future of Semiconductor Manufacturing, the industry is increasingly dependent on advanced manufacturing… Read More


RISC-V: From Niche Architecture to Strategic Foundation

RISC-V: From Niche Architecture to Strategic Foundation
by Kalar Rajendiran on 05-07-2026 at 10:00 am

The RISC V Inflection Point

At the recent RISC-V Now by Andes conference, Aion Silicon’s presentation made one thing clear: RISC-V is no longer an emerging alternative but rather rapidly becoming foundational to modern silicon design. This conviction is not theoretical says Oliver Jones, CEO of Aion Silicon, who gave the talk. It is grounded in Aion Silicon’s… Read More


Bringing mathematical rigour in the world of hardware – a journey into Formal Verification

Bringing mathematical rigour in the world of hardware – a journey into Formal Verification
by Daniel Nenni on 05-07-2026 at 6:00 am

Robert Simpson picture

This interview presents the first steps of Robert Simpson (R.S.), a Maths graduate who found an unexpected, but natural home in Formal Verification (FV) at Axiomise. Drawn by a desire to apply rigorous logic to real-world problems, he shares how abstract mathematical thinking translates into ensuring hardware correctness … Read More
