General Motors (GM) made a deal with GlobalFoundries (GF) to have chips made at the U.S.-based foundry in upstate New York for GM’s key suppliers. GF will expand its production capabilities exclusively for GM’s supply chain, while GM promises to bring economies of scale through its strategy to reduce the unique types of chips needed in products. J.D. Power released its 2023 U.S. Vehicle ... » read more

Zero Trust Security In Chip Manufacturing
By Ed Sperling - 08 Feb, 2023 - Comments: 0

More equipment vendors and more IP are making the data in a fab much more valuable than in the past, and a potential target for hackers. What’s needed is a different approach to architecting and deploying services and equipment, so breaches can be stopped before they affect other equipment and data, and a better way of sharing data. Brian Buras, production analytics solution architect at Adva... » read more
