Photo by Jorge Salvador on Unsplash THE COSTLY LIFE CYCLE OF SEMICONDUCTOR DATA The importance of data in different industries has only grown over the last few decades. This has in turn given rise to different new techniques and tools that enable enterprises to capture and analyze data on the go. It will not be wrong to say that today, the most prized commodity in the market is data. The same story is applicable in the semiconductor industry. The shrinking transistor size and the need to enable efficient devices has increased the importance of capturing data from all the possible semiconductor product development process. However, the major hurdle in doing so is the cost associated with the process. Semiconductor Data Is The Next-Gen Oil. Shrinking transistors enable better devices and […]

Photo by Stef Westheim on Unsplash THE ROLE PLAYED BY THE SEMICONDUCTOR MEMORY In the world of computing, memory is a vital piece of silicon that can either make or break the computer system. It is nearly impossible to perform any computing task without the help of computer memory. Memory is also the major reason why today we have large data storage centers and high-speed computers. There is no denying that software plays an important role in speeding up the application. However, the balance of software with the right hardware configuration is also a crucial part of making an efficient system. The portable computers are a perfect example of how important semiconductor memory is. A decade ago, it was unimaginable to have GB of RAM and storage. The advanced and

The PPA Management In Semiconductor Product Development

Leave a Comment / BLOG, HARDWARE, MANUFACTURING, SEMICONDUCTOR, TECHNOLOGY /

Photo by Christian Wiediger on Unsplash THE IMPORTANCE OF PPA IN SEMICONDUCTOR Semiconductor products are designed and manufactured for different conditions with varying requirements. These conditions and requirements are often a combination of several technical criteria. One such important criteria are Power, Performance, And Area (PPA). In the end, the goal of developing semiconductor products is to provide as much functionality possible. This requires a perfect combination of PPA: Low power consumption with high performance in the smallest area possible. The shirking transistor size has ensured that the die/chip area is not a technical concern when designing a semiconductor chip. However, at the same time, other technical challenges are posed by small die/chip areas. Mainly, balancing the power consumption while not affecting the performance. Three-way balancing act of power, performance, and area (PPA) is becoming

Photo by Patrik Kernstock on Unsplash THE ROLE OF OSFAB In the majority of the industry, outsourcing enables a way to operate efficiently. The efficiency is achieved both from a technical and business point of view. In the software industry, outsourcing is primarily focused on providing the right tools and services required to drive internal day-to-day operational activities efficiently. This allows the customer (companies) to instead focus on their core business. The same outsourcing strategies are applicable in the hardware industry, in some cases more than it is in the software industry. The core business of the semiconductor chip design companies is to come up with designs that allow them to create products for their niche market. In many cases, semiconductor companies often have to compete with others to win
