Chip Industry Week In Review
By The SE Staff - 07 Mar, 2025 - Comments: 0

The Malaysian government signed a deal with Arm to kickstart a chip design ecosystem. Until now, Malaysia has focused on packaging and test. Adding chip design represents a major change in focus. The country will pay SoftBank $250 million over 10 years for Arm’s chip design IP and train 10,000 engineers. Global chip sales reached $56 billion in January, up nearly 18% from the same period i... » read more

Chiplets: A Technology, Not A Market
By Geoff Tate - 06 Mar, 2025 - Comments: 1

Chiplets are big business, and that business is growing. The total chiplet market today is roughly $40 billion annually. Chiplets account for roughly 15% of TSMC's revenues, and they account for about 25% of all DRAMs. All of the major AI/HPC semiconductor companies (NVIDIA, AMD, Marvell, Broadcom) and the major hyper scalers (Amazon, Google, etc) are looking to chiplets to build superior... » read more
