The Need For Silicon To Become Self-Aware

DALL·E What Is Silicon-Aware Architecture As chips approach atomic dimensions, every region of silicon begins to behave differently, shaped by fluctuations in voltage, temperature, stress, and delay. Traditional design methods still rely on fixed timing corners and conservative power margins, assuming stable and predictable behavior. At three

The Semiconductor Dual Edge Of Design And Manufacturing

DALL·E Semiconductor leadership comes from the lockstep of two strengths: brilliant design and reliable, high-scale manufacturing. Countries that have both move faster from intent to silicon, learn directly from yield and test data, and steer global computing roadmaps. Countries with only one side stay dependent, either on

The Semiconductor Hurdles For Inspection

Photo by L N on Unsplash Semiconductor products often fail, and finding the root cause thus becomes a critical process. More so, when the product is already in production. Failure and root cause analysis are vital steps towards finding issues with the semiconductor product. Doing so requires an inspection process

The Growing Reliance Of Semiconductor Industry On Software

Photo by ThisisEngineering RAEng on Unsplash Software is the backbone of several industries, including semiconductor. Several (maybe all) semiconductor activities cannot work without a software solution and are valid for several key stages like design, manufacturing, supply chain, and many more. This growing reliance on several stages is the primary

Chetan Arvind Patil

                Hi, I am Chetan Arvind Patil (chay-tun – how to pronounce), a semiconductor professional whose job is turning data into products for the semiconductor industry that powers billions of devices around the world. And while I like what I do, I also enjoy biking, working on few ideas, apart from writing, and talking about interesting developments in hardware, software, semiconductor and technology.
