The FLEX Conference, held again this year in conjunction with SEMICON West 2023, provided numerous examples of continued developments in flexible, printed, and flexible hybrid electronics technologies applied to sensing, robotics, communications, and other applications.

The increasing complexity of IC manufacturing poses a number of challenges including the mask data preparation required to enable technology improvements such as multi-beam (MB) mask writers and extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography. Thiago Figueiro, VP of Sales & Marketing of Aselta weighs in.

While studies show that workplace diversity helps companies boost innovation and financial results, many organizations struggle to implement diversity, equity and inclusion (DE&I) programs that make meaningful cultural change.   SEMI spoke with Georgina Janvier, Head of Transformation and...

Women remain sorely underrepresented in the microelectronics industry worldwide and are a minority in the science, engineering, chemistry and physics fields overall even as companies struggle to fill open positions. A SEMI blog earlier this year reported that, according to the American Association...

Throughout the current millennium, System-on-Chip (SoC) has been the gold standard for optimizing performance and cost of complete electronic systems. By incorporating practically all the phone’s digital plus analog capabilities onto a single, giant chip, the mobile phone processor serves as a...

AEM Holdings Ltd, a Singapore-based multinational corporation, is listed in Forbes Asia’s 200 Best Under A Billion 2019 and 2020 spotlighting small and midsized companies in the Asia-Pacific region with sales under $1 billion. AEM clinched the Singapore Business Review Technology Excellence Award...

As monolithic scaling slows down, the semiconductor industry is increasingly relying on advanced packaging technologies to extend Moore’s law through heterogeneous integration. Higher on-package bandwidth, improved yield resiliency and the need to integrate diverse IP from multiple foundries are...

Electronics innovation is inching tantalizingly closer to the day when treating neurological disorders such as epilepsy and migraine could be as easy and convenient as dropping into a medical clinic for a minor medical procedure – brain surgery. What today is highly invasive surgery promises to be...

For the first time in its 20-year history, the FLEX Conference dedicated an entire session to the important and timely twin topics of environmental sustainability and power consumption of electronic devices. The event planning committee recognized the urgent need to increase the awareness of how...

Even though microchips continue to get smarter, vital security gaps continue to be exposed through such hack attacks as Meltdown, Spectre, and in recent weeks, Plundervolt. Researchers continue to discover open doors in chip architectures for malicious players to steal increasingly sensitive data,...
