Photo by Anne Nygård on Unsplash In the coming few years, several new semiconductor FABs will start production. Several of these were part of long-term semiconductor requirements. Few started construction based on the semiconductor shortages and the push to mitigate such a scenario in the future. These new FAB required
Photo by Henry & Co. on Unsplash The semiconductor fabrication process is complex and costly, and it takes a lot of time to fabricate advanced solutions. Apart from the technical and business hurdles, the ability to develop one specific type of semiconductor device node is not resource-friendly. It also drives
Photo by Laura Ockel on Unsplash More than 50% of the semiconductor FAB (fabrication) cost is due to equipment and tools. Any given FAB has hundred different types of these, and without the required tools and equipment, the FAB cannot work efficiently. One piece of equipment that drives the semiconductor
Photo by Vishnu Mohanan on Unsplash Since the semiconductor shortage started, private semiconductor players and public bodies have focused on semiconductor manufacturing. The primary reason impact semiconductor shortage had on all other industries that heavily rely on semiconductor solutions. One of the positive impacts of semiconductor shortage (which ideally should
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.
