Intel PowerVia backside power delivery

There is a lot being said about Intel getting the lead back from TSMC with their 18A process. Like anything else in the semiconductor industry there is much more here than meets the eye, absolutely.

From the surface, TSMC has a massive ecosystem and is in the lead as far as process technologies and foundry design starts but Intel is … Read More


Will Chiplet Adoption Mimic IP Adoption?

Will Chiplet Adoption Mimic IP Adoption?
by Eric Esteve on 12-28-2023 at 6:00 am

Adoption theory

If we look at the semiconductor industry expansion during the last 25 years, adoption of design IP in every application appears to be one of the major factors of success, with silicon technology incredible development by a x100 factor, from 250nm in 2018 to 3nm (if not 2nm) in 2023. We foresee the move to chiplet-based architecture… Read More
