SEMICON West

With technological advancements driving our digital era, the demand for semiconductors is skyrocketing. The chip industry is projected to reach unprecedented heights of around $1 trillion in annual revenue by 2030. However, amid this remarkable growth, a daunting challenge looms: the shortage of...

The journey of the three twentysomethings was chronicled in Chip In, a new documentary from Roadtrip Nation, a nonprofit that supports road trips to capture empowering stories that help students find careers. Chip In was made possible by the SEMI Foundation.

In many ways it feels like we’ve turned back the hands of time. We are staying at home, playing board games with the family. Outdoors, we can view mountains not seen in decades – air pollution has dropped nearly 20 percent. Neighbors we haven’t met are out walking, a lot. Traffic is relatively...

Did you miss the SEMI International Standards Reception at SEMICON West 2018? Not to worry, here are the highlights.SEMI honored two Standards industry leaders for their outstanding accomplishments in developing Standards for the electronics and related industries.Two awards were given recognizing...

The Advanced Lithography TechXPOT at this year’s SEMICON West will explore progress in extreme ultraviolet lithography (EUVL), its economic viability for high-volume manufacturing (HVM) and other lithography solutions that will address the march to 5nm and onward to 3nm.As a prelude to the event,...

What’s next for smarter, more connected electronics manufacturing - Part 3 The fast-maturing infrastructure now enabling analysis of exponentially larger data volumes brings the microelectronics industry to an inflection point, where the winning companies will be the first to master the use of...

What’s next for smarter, more connected electronics manufacturing - Part 2The fast-maturing infrastructure now enabling applications for big data and artificial intelligence means disruptive change not just at individual companies but also in data connections among companies across the...

The Scaling Technologies TechXPOT at this year’s SEMICON West (Scaling Every Which Way! – Thursday, July 12, 2:00pm-4:00pm) will explore traditional scaling as the industry marches toward 3nm and beyond, as well as technologies that enable 3D architectures, die stacking, and interconnect scaling....
