In this webinar, Intel will present how EMIB (Embedded Multi‑die Interconnect Bridge) enables compact, cost-effective multi‑die design while sustaining the bandwidth and power efficiency required for AI and datacenter designs. Intel will share an EMIB reference methodology built on Synopsys

Intel CEO Lip-Bu Tan’s statement that “re-spins get you fired” reflects the enormous pressure facing semiconductor companies as chip complexity, manufacturing costs, and competitive demands continue to rise. In the semiconductor industry, a “re-spin” occurs when a chip design must be revised and manufactured again because… Read More
Contrary to the popular press, ASML High-NA EUV is not ready for logic production yet—and it may never be, at least not in the form originally envisioned. If you remember how long it took conventional EUV to become production-worthy—arguably 5–10 years—this should not come as a surprise. More importantly, this is no longer just… Read More
After more than 15 years of collaboration with Dr. Eric Esteve and IPnest, SemiWiki has acquired the famed IP reports with Eric Esteve staying on through 2026 to ease the transition. Not only will SemiWiki provide the industry standard Interface IP and Design IP reports, SemiWiki will be expanding the depth and breadth of the coverage.… Read More
To me this is going to be one of the bigger Chicken Little moments in the history of semiconductors. Mostly because we are now a click driven society and the media is plagued by so called influencers that live and die by clicks. In my 40+ years as a semiconductor professional I have witnessed many of these Chicken Little moments with … Read More
The Pan Am–Boeing playbook and what Musk’s Terafab order could mean for Intel Foundry
“We either build the Terafab or we don’t have the chips.” That’s Elon Musk, speaking to Reuters, stating a supply constraint as plainly as anyone has stated one. TSMC is sold out. Samsung is committed. The existing supply chain can’t expand fast… Read More
SambaNova Systems and Intel have introduced a blueprint for heterogeneous inference that reflects a significant shift in how modern large language model (LLM) workloads are deployed. Instead of relying on a single accelerator type, the proposed architecture assigns different phases of inference to specialized hardware:… Read More
Everyone has been treating Intel as a turnaround story. What if it’s not a scheduled airline — but a charter, and Musk is the one filing the flight plan? Not just Tesla. Companies like Microsoft, Google, Meta, and Oracle are all designing their own silicon now, and their AI infrastructure depends on it. And yet they remain dependent… Read More
Intel, Musk, and the Tweet That Launched a 1000 Ships on a Becalmed Sea
Why do professional executives running major corporations frame a major moment in their company’s history with a tweet? Jerry Sanders spent his career yelling “real men have fabs!” Now Intel has fabs–and apparently tweets about … Read More
Agentic AI workloads are reshaping the compute requirements of modern data center infrastructure by shifting performance bottlenecks from GPU-centric inference to CPU-heavy orchestration and workflow management. Traditional AI inference pipelines relied primarily on GPUs performing a single forward pass, where input… Read More
