As SemiWiki celebrates our 14th anniversary I wanted to wish you all a happy New Year! Working in the semiconductor industry for the past 40 years has been rewarding beyond belief. Working in the trenches and traveling the world has been an education in itself, more so than any other career that I could imagine. SemiWiki has broadened… Read More
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
WIth packaging being one of the top sources of traffic on SemiWiki, I am expecting a big crowd at this event. A semiconductor substrate is a foundational material used in the fabrication of semiconductor devices. Substrates are a critical part of the manufacturing process and directly affect the performance, reliability, and… Read More
At #61DAC our very own Daniel Nenni from SemiWiki moderated an informative panel discussion on the topic of 3D IC Design Ecosystem. Panelists included: Deepak Kulkarni – AMD, Lalitha Immaneni – Intel Foundry, Trupti Deshpande – Qualcomm, Rob Aitken – CHIPS, Puneet Gupta – UCLA, Dragomir Milojevic – imec. Each panelist had a brief… Read More
This year’s live semiconductor ecosystem conferences have been well attend and I expect the same for #61DAC next week. I will be at the conference from Sunday afternoon to Wednesday evening, if you would like to meet let me know. Networking is an important part of the semiconductor ecosystem so let’s make it happen.… Read More
Dan is joined by podcast producer and collaborator Mike Gianfagna for Semiconductor Insiders episode 200. Dan and Mike look over the past two years (and 200 podcasts) to develop a top ten list of changes and innovation in the semiconductor industry. There is a lot of back-story detail on each topic in this far-reaching discussion.… Read More
In the realm of digital systems, clocks play a crucial role in synchronizing various components and ensuring smooth flow of logic propagation. However, the accuracy of clocks can be significantly affected by power supply induced jitter. Jitter refers to the deviation in the timing of clock signals with PDN noise compared to ideal… Read More
