New Micron Logo, interesting

hskuo

Well-known member
Interesting Micron Logo change and the summary by @ChemStat66667. Upon this, what can we find the commonality and what will we expect if using infineon as another example?
My thoughts: at bottom.

1. All three have removed the circles (boundaries).
2. Micron change M to low capital m for similar reasons as other companies?
3. Will infineon remove the red boundary soon?
 
The site www.logos-world.net has such comment on TSMC's logo. It's kind of funny though. The writer of the comment probably has no idea about a semiconductor wafer.

"The TSMC logo is not particularly innovative; it feels stuck in the past century, as it features a perforated surface reminiscent of the early days of programming. At the same time, the emblem reflects the reliability and stability of the semiconductor manufacturer for various electronic devices."

I kind of like this for TSMC

Would prefer it in CAPS though

As it ever been capital letters?

The episode of low capital in "tsmc" is: the Symbol of "T" implies there is a bar on top and hard to breakthrough it. Choosing t implies the company can always breakthrough the bar above. Not expect them to change it.

Very good!

High level thinking

Indeed, tsmc is a humble company. But what I said is what has been told in tsmc internally for a long time.

By looking at TSMC's past annual reports, around and before 2000 its logo actually had more black sections than the current one and used black color as the background. I think to improve the wafer manufacturing yield, the logo design is very important. :)

Before 2000:

TSMC seems to be changing colors, going to the dark side:

Versus last year's:

The dark side........ and I'm liking it.

Took me a while to get used to TSMC logo but now it just seems great and timeless. And the possibility of yield improvement is a nice bonus.

I do remember hearing a comment at TSMC that they did increase yield with the new logo. I highly doubt TSMC paid millions for the logo. Morris would not do that. I would bet it was done in-house. The above the bar comment is correct and very accurate as it turns out. In fact, TSMC has raised the bar as well.

That's a lot of "ink spots" (defects) and a 200mm flatted wafer - very much 90s style.
