Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company, the world’s largest dedicated semiconductor foundry, has transformed from a modest startup into a global technology powerhouse. Founded on February 21, 1987, by Morris Chang, a veteran of Texas Instruments, TSMC pioneered the “pure-play” foundry model. … Read More
This webinar provides an in-depth discussion about the challenges posed by AI’s increasing power requirements to voltage regulation, more specifically physical limitations such as power distribution losses, thermal and cooling limitations, and power density issues.
It then explores innovative technologies designed
The importance of second-stage optimization in power delivery for data centers and high-performance computing cannot be overstated. With the potential to increase energy efficiency from an average of 85% to approximately 90%,
Infineon is at the forefront of developing innovative solutions to meet the rapidly growing demands
Join our webinar and learn about the fundamentals of Gallium Nitride (GaN) technology and its applications in power systems.
You will gain a deep understanding of gate drive circuit design, layout steps, and thermal management guidelines for GaN transistors and applications in high-switching
WSTS reported the global semiconductor market in 4th quarter 2024 was $170.9 billion, up 17% from a year earlier and up 3% from 3rd quarter 2024. The full year 2024 market was $628 billion, up 19.1% from 2023.
We at Semiconductor Intelligence give a virtual award for the most accurate semiconductor market forecast for the year. The… Read More
Systems engineers often want to select the best IC for their projects, yet the time required to search online, buy an Evaluation Kit, waiting to receive it in the mail, then getting it installed and setup for testing can be a barrier and lengthen the project timeline. This is where TenXer Labs comes in, as they have cleverly developed… Read More
The global semiconductor market is now solidly in a turnaround. WSTS revised its data for 2Q 2023 growth over 1Q 2023 to 6.0% from 4.2% previously. 3Q 2023 was up 6.3% from 2Q 2023. With our Semiconductor Intelligence forecast of 3% growth in 4Q 2023, the year-to-year growth in 4Q 2023 will be a positive 6%. This will set the stage for… Read More
Every year EDA vendor MunEDA hosts a user group meeting where engineers present how they used automation tools to improve their IC designs, and one presentation from Peter Huber of Infineon caught my attention, it was all about SRAM design optimization. Peter has authored papers at IEEE conferences and been issued patents related… Read More
Whether it is the stock market or the semiconductor market, the name of the game is yield. In semiconductors, yield has to do with minimizing scrap costs in all phases of manufacturing. This means squeezing as many good dies from a wafer as well as maximizing the number of good assembled/packaged chips that pass system level testing.… Read More
Semiconductor sales in 2020 were $439.0 billion, up 6.5% from $412.3 billion in 2019, according to World Semiconductor Trade Statistics (WSTS).
We at Semiconductor Intelligence have been tracking the accuracy of semiconductor market forecasts from various sources for several years. We look at publicly available projections… Read More
