Digital Twins Target IC Tool And Fab Efficiency
By Laura Peters - 21 Mar, 2024 - Comments: 0

Digital twins have emerged as the hot "new" semiconductor manufacturing technology, enabling fabs to create a virtual representation of a physical system on which to experiment and optimize what's going on inside the real fab. While digital twin technology has been in use for some time in other industries, its use has been limited in semiconductor manufacturing. What's changing is the breadt... » read more

Money Pours Into New Fabs And Facilities
By Liz Allan - 03 Jan, 2024 - Comments: 0

Fabs, packaging, test and assembly, and R&D all drew major funding in 2023. Companies poured money into offshore locations, such as India and Malaysia, to access a larger workforce and lower costs, while also partnering with governments to secure domestic supply chains amid ongoing geopolitical turmoil. Looking ahead, artificial intelligence (AI), quantum computing, and data applications... » read more

U.S. Opens Funding Applications Under CHIPS Act
By Linda Christensen - 28 Feb, 2023 - Comments: 0

The 2022 Chips and Science Act provided $39 billion in federal funding to revitalize the U.S. semiconductor industry. Now, the U.S. Department of Commerce, the oversight branch for the CHIPS Act, has taken the first step in opening up applications for this funding. This initial funding opportunity focuses on applications specifically for projects to “construct, expand, or modernize commerc... » read more

Where All The Semiconductor Investments Are Going
By Ed Sperling - 17 Nov, 2022 - Comments: 2

Companies and countries are funneling huge sums of money into semiconductor manufacturing, materials, and research — at least a half-trillion dollars over the next decade, and maybe much more — to guarantee a steady supply of chips and know-how to support growth across a wide swath of increasingly data-centric industries. The build-out of a duplicate supply chain that can guarantee capac... » read more
