- Anamika Brouwer Growing up in the Rogue Valley, I remember one thing about Intel was their products were always the more budget appropriate, reasonable, reliable, and always readily available products within the valley. II wasn't always into big and fancy, just wanted something that worked effectively that I did not have to wait for. If I wanted a fancy computer or something that ran better game specs, then I needed to order it, or even find it at a larger retail store at a very unreasonable price. I will say, I did get into gaming, but I still own the 2009 HP Slimline with my Intel Processor inside. In 2016, I upgraded the power supply, cooling unit, and storage. I can still power on this computer and run League of Legends and World of Warcraft on it very well. I know that Intel is going through changes right now, but this does not make me want to work here any less. Change in the semiconductor industry is forever, as we try to fluctuate with the ever-changing times around us. I am excited to see where things go for Intel, and I am even more excited to be able to be helping and supporting our teams that make these reasonable, amazing, diverse products. :) #IntelFoundry 1
- RAGHU VARMA Tech Thought #1Innovations Beyond HBM in Memory TechnologyExciting advancements are on the horizon beyond HBM in memory technology. HBM3 is poised to elevate bandwidth and capacity for demanding applications, while Memory-Class Storage (MCS) merges memory and storage features for enhanced speed and capacity. Persistent Memory (PMEM) offers a blend of DRAM-like performance and storage durability, propelling innovation in data processing efficiency.Furthermore, breakthroughs in 3D integration, like 3D NAND and 3D DRAM, promise heightened storage density and performance. Neuromorphic memory, inspired by neural networks, and Quantum memory, harnessing quantum states, hold the potential to revolutionize speed and capacity in memory technology. Reconfigurable memory architectures are also set to adapt to diverse workloads, optimizing performance across various applications.These advancements collectively mark a significant leap forward in memory technology, paving the way for a future that goes beyond the capabilities of HBM. #MemoryArchitecture #3DMemories #HBM #SpintronicsAI 22
- RAGHU VARMA Tech Thought #2"The Crucial Role of TSVs in High Bandwidth Memory: Performance, Thermal, and Mechanical Insights"In High Bandwidth Memory (HBM3), analyzing Through-Silicon Vias (TSVs) involves several critical aspects. Electrical performance is a key area of focus, where TSV resistance, capacitance, and signal integrity are evaluated to ensure they meet performance requirements and prevent issues like noise and crosstalk.Thermal performance is also crucial; it's important to assess how well TSVs manage heat dissipation and handle thermal cycling to maintain reliability under varying temperatures. Mechanical reliability is examined through stress and strain analysis, as well as fatigue testing, to ensure TSVs can withstand mechanical forces and repeated thermal cycles without failing.The manufacturing process is another critical aspect. Ensuring the quality of TSV fabrication, including proper alignment, filling, and insulation, is essential, and defect monitoring is necessary to avoid performance issues. Design considerations involve optimizing TSV density and placement to balance performance, power consumption, and area, and incorporating redundancy techniques can enhance reliability.Testing and validation are fundamental to confirm that TSVs operate correctly and reliably over time. Lastly, compatibility and integration are examined to ensure TSVs work well with other components and interfaces within the HBM3 system and integrate effectively within the overall packaging. Addressing these aspects comprehensively ensures that TSVs in HBM3 systems perform optimally and maintain high reliability.#SpintronicsAI#HBM #TSV #Semiconductors #ReliabilityEngineering #FutureOfMemory #ChipDesign #ElectronicsEngineering 21
- Marco Mezger Texas Instruments Wins $4.6 Billion in #ChipsAct Grants, Loans- Funding will support $18 billion in spending in #Texas, #Utah- Biden administration almost finished allocating #chips grantsTexas Instruments Inc.is set to receive $1.6 billion in Chips Act grants and $3 billion in loans, the #Bidenadministration announced Friday, marking the latest major award from a program designed to boost #American #semiconductormanufacturing. The funding will help pay for one factory in Utah and two in Texas — projects that will cost about $18 billion through 2029 — the Commerce Department said in a statement. The effort is expected to generate around 2,000 #manufacturing #jobs and thousands more in #construction.In total, #TexasInstruments plans to spend around $40 billion across both states, including an additional two factories in #Sherman, Texas. It’s likely that those will come online after 2030, and the Commerce Department has said it will prioritize projects that will be done by the end of the decade.Thanks again to Mackenzie Hawkins and Bloomberg for the full article with more background and insights via the link below 💡🙏👇https://lnkd.in/eFiP2W4P#semiconductorindustry #semiconductors #semiconductor #technology #tech #it #chips #it #geopolitics #subsidies #usa #innovation #chip #ic 265 2 Comments

- Moshe Zalcberg At his keynote at the Cadence Design Systems Verification Day in Israel this week, Ziyad Hanna, reviewed the different new tools and applications where Cadence makes use of #ArtifitialIntelligence to automate and ease the life of Verification Engineers. Out of the many ideas, I'd like to highlight one that is not directly promoting a specific Cadence tool, but in my view gives great insights on #AI's opportunities and limitations:For Design RTL, GenAI tools currently give very poor results. Most output doesn't even compile, not to mention the poor quality of silicon (QoS). Therefore Ziyad suggested two possible paths: 1) Use GenAI to generate "hardware-friendly" C++ and then use a HLS tool to synthesize it. Not only GenAI does a better job with C++ than with other design languages, but also one can drive QoS results with the HLS of choice. 2) As an alternative, feed GenAI with an existing RTL and ask for modifications. The room for error is smaller in this case. As a matter of fact, this seems to be a good recipe for using AI in many other applications, not just #chipdesign: Get GenAI to make a first version and then use other tools (or manually) tune it. Alternatively, give #GenAI a first version you've done yourself and ask it to improve it for you. Dani Wunsh, Shayna Kessler and Cadence Israel team - congrats on a great event! (While at that, I looked for an AI app that would sharpen the text on my blurred picture below but couldn't find one...ideas?) 35 2 Comments

- David Kehlet Accountability and SuccessAccountability was one of the Altera Values studied and discussed at this 2013 Altera Engineering workshop. Accountability was part of the Altera culture, embraced by all from interns to our CEO, and essential to our technical and financial competitiveness.The six proposed statements give insight into our thinking. We voted (see the black dots) and chose #1 as the best accountability statement. You can see that #2, the statement about transparency, was a close 2nd which highlights that integrity is essential to accountability.Executives, if you want an organization with the prime focus on personal advancement, then go ahead and model stage presence and rapport with senior VPs. But if you instead want an organization that produces great results, then exercise accountability. 56 2 Comments

- Umar Mughal Should Lattice Semiconductor buy Altera? With no product portfolio overlap, both companies can strengthen each other. Intel needs a cash injection, selling Altera would be a great way to do that quickly. For Lattice, this would leap frog them into the next tier. Combined revenue would be ~$2.2B, still smaller than AMD's Xilinx hence SEC should not have an issue with it. Before anyone says a smaller company buying a larger one, remember Avago's acquisition of Broadcom?This marriage would be great for the employees, customers, industry, and both companies. 136 29 Comments
- Frank Schirrmeister Great article with insights by Bernard Murphy at SemiWiki.com, "Arteris Frames Network-On-Chip Topologies in the Car.""... while there is plenty of complexity in evolving car architectures and the consequent impact on subsystem chip/chiplet designs, connected on-chip through both coherent and non-coherent networks, the intent behind these systems is quite clear. We just need to start thinking about total car system architecture rather than individual chip functions."#Arteris #NetworkOnChip #Automotivehttps://bit.ly/3UiKqls 25
