For advanced semiconductor designs, achieving both design rule check clean layouts and optimal electrical performance is crucial for minimizing design iterations, reducing time-to-market and ensuring product reliability. Balancing electrical performance and layout integrity is a difficult task. Achieving an optimal… Read More
Great news last week as Intel fills the CEO slot for the 9th time in 56 years with industry legend Lip-Bu Tan. From what I hear, Intel employees, and the entire industry for that matter, are overjoyed. I’m sure there are one or two competing companies that are concerned but overall it is an absolute love fest.
If you look at education… Read More

TechInsights has been in the semiconductor analysis business for more than 35 years and is THE most trusted source of semiconductor information. TechInsights started as a reverse engineering and IP analysis company but has grown into much more. I remember waiting for the teardown reports before buying electronics to make sure… Read More
When I do a root cause analysis of Intel’s problem it is very simple. If Intel wants to continue to be a leading-edge semiconductor manufacturer, they need to fill their fabs, all of their fabs. Clearly several things need to happen in order to do that but the one that most interests me is on the foundry side.
I think we can all agree that… Read More
One of the most enduring threads in the SemiWiki forum is What would you do if you are the Intel CEO? There are currently 128 responses and more than 45,000 views. It was originally posted March 13th, 2015, after Brain Krzanich was given the CEO position. A different time for sure but an interesting read and the responses keep on coming.… 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
