Photo by Alina Grubnyak on Unsplash There is not a single industry that does not rely on strategic partnerships. The semiconductor industry is no different, and semiconductor companies have to rely on a strategic partnership to achieve the goal of a successful product launch. The semiconductor industry has several different
Photo by Justin Luebke on Unsplash The semiconductor industry is going through a wave of consolidation. It is not the first time the semiconductor industry is marching through such a wave. However, everyone time it does, it often has positive and negative impacts. The reduction in the number of companies
Photo by Clem Onojeghuo on Unsplash The key factors to gauge the impact of any industry are by capturing: economic activity and employment generation. These two factors also apply to the semiconductor industry and are evident from year-on-year impact and growth. The economic impact is dependent on job creation. Thus,

Ten teams and twenty drivers will compete for the next ten months by running high-speed cars across twenty-two different types of racing circuits located in several parts of the world. The team with consistent results, flawless drivers,
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
Photo by Chris Ried on Unsplash The shrinking size of semiconductor nodes has led to better performance, which is beneficial from a features point of view, but not from the cost point of view. The cost to design and manufacture highly complex chips (to provide better performance) is increasing year
Photo by Nenad Grujic on Unsplash Heterogeneous Integration (HI) has become one of the most focused topics in the last decade. From academia to industry, everyone is publishing and launching innovative solutions to scale transistors per area out of the die. HI is also one of the paths (that soon)
Photo by ShareGrid on Unsplash Semiconductor testing is one of the most critical steps in ensuring that the product meets all the required specifications and quality standards. Thus semiconductor testing has also become a major driving factor for defect-free products. Every chip manufactured has to go through testing processes to
Photo by Denys Nevozhai on Unsplash Advanced semiconductor package technologies have always played a crucial role in transistor scaling. It is also the primary reason these two scaling methods complement each other to enable customers (and industry) with innovative solutions. Die and package level innovation have always provided the industry
Photo by Stefan Kunze on Unsplash The semiconductor industry is entering a new era where all high-tech solutions will demand new and advanced semiconductor product-driven solutions. These solutions range from wireless to automotive. In this massive market (upward of $2 Trillion), there will be a need to re-invent different segments
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.
