Semiconductor Futures 2025

At first glance, the headline annualized semiconductor market growth numbers remain strong, with HBM Memory leading the way and AI GPUs continuing to sell in a frenzy. However, a deeper dive into the details reveals a much bleaker picture. Inventory levels remain stubbornly high, and mainstream capacity utilization rates are… Read More

multidie and HBM stacks min

3D design with high-bandwidth memory stacks (HBM) has become essential for leading edge semiconductor systems in multiple applications. Hyperscalers depend on large AI accelerator cores supported by 100GB or more of in-package HBM to handle trillion parameter AI models. Autonomous Drive (AD) vehicles may handle smaller … Read More

Can LELE Multipatterning Help Against EUV Stochastics

Previously, I had indicated how detrimental stochastic effects at pitches below 50 nm should lead to reconsidering the practical resolution limit for EUV lithography [1]. This is no exaggeration, as stochastic effects have been observed for 24 nm half-pitch several years ago [2,3]. This then leads to the question of whether … Read More

Accelerating Automotive SoC Design with Chiplets
by Kalar Rajendiran on 01-02-2025 at 10:00 am

System Chiplet

The automotive industry is evolving rapidly with the increasing demand for intelligent, connected, and autonomous vehicles. Central to this transformation are System-on-Chip (SoC) designs, which integrate multiple processing units into a single chip for managing everything from safety systems to in-car entertainment.… Read More


AI PC momentum building with business adoption anticipated

AI PC momentum building with business adoption anticipated
by Don Dingee on 01-02-2025 at 6:00 am

Growth in AI hardware IP leads to AI PC momentum

And just like that, the AI PC arrived. It will be hard to miss high-profile advertising campaigns like the one just launched by Microsoft touting them. Gartner said this September that AI PCs will be 43% of all PC shipments in 2025 (with 114M units projected) and that by 2026, AI PCs will be the only choice for business laptop users. … Read More
