Re-shoring And Rebuilding The IC Supply Chain
By Ed Sperling - 01 Mar, 2023 - Comments: 0

Raj Jammy, chief technologist at MITRE Engenuity and executive director of the Semiconductor Alliance, sat down with Semiconductor Engineering to talk about changes in the supply chain, where and how to leverage different capabilities, and why advanced packaging and manufacturing are so critical to economic security. SE: The global supply chain for semiconductors appears to be splintering. W... » read more

Steering The Semiconductor Industry
By Brian Bailey - 26 Aug, 2021 - Comments: 2

Progress in semiconductors has been one of the most successful engineering feats, and the industry has ridden an exponential curve longer than anything else in history. It is also a highly conservative industry that has pushed away many disruptive changes in favor of small incremental changes that minimize risk. There have been significant changes over the decades, and they often required a ... » read more

DSA Re-Enters Litho Picture
By Mark LaPedus - 15 Mar, 2018 - Comments: 1

By Mark LaPedus and Ed Sperling Directed self-assembly (DSA) is moving back onto the patterning radar screen amid ongoing challenges in lithography. Intel continues to have a keen interest in [gettech id="31046" t_name="DSA"], while other chipmakers are taking another hard look at the technology, according to multiple industry sources. DSA isn't like a traditional [getkc id="80" kc_name="... » read more

Technology Reboot Required
By Brian Bailey - 29 Oct, 2015 - Comments: 1

The International Technology Roadmap for Semiconductors (ITRS) has produced reports outlining the major obstacles the electronics industry faces for a long time now. It attempts to project, with a 15-year horizon, the problems that need to be solved in order to take advantage of the complete design and manufacturing ecosystem. From this, early research efforts can be started. This enabled the E... » read more

New Patterning Paradigm?
By Mark LaPedus - 16 Apr, 2015 - Comments: 0

Chip scaling is becoming more difficult at each process node, but the industry continues to find new and innovative ways to solve the problems at every turn. And so chipmakers continue to march down the various process nodes. But the question is for how much longer? In fact, at 16nm/14nm and beyond, chipmakers are finding new and different challenges, which, in turn, could slow IC scaling or br... » read more
