ASML’s Post

Smaller is better 🤔 Higher speeds 💨 Lower power consumption ⚡ Higher efficiency at lower costs 💶 Want to know how small we are talking? check the video below. Also how cool is the #LEGO model?!

Get into the KNOW with this short informative video on the size of nanometers, and the Angstrom Era!

We getting to the angstrom (10^-10), beyond the nm (10^-9). At 3T | Electronics & Embedded Systems we of course benefit from al these state of the art semiconductors; which are actually needed for the electronics to make the machines of ASML even more accurate. I often think of the ASML machines with regards to the chicken and the egg discussion. We would not be able to make such high-end machines without the chips that are being made using the same machines, but a bit older generation.

EUV machines uses light with a wave lenght of 13.5 nm,but how small is a nanometer? This video gives a simple and good explanation.

The #semiconductor world is evolving with chiplets, offering a new way to build #microchips beyond traditional SoCs. This shift is unlocking new possibilities for users and industries alike. Explore the impact of this innovation: https://t.co/eVYZuYU2Lp #ExpertConnect https://t.co/X5iEbohouh

The implications of AI on the semiconductor industry are profound. AI drives demand for more powerful and specialized semiconductor chips optimized for machine learning tasks. This spurs innovation in chip design, with a focus on efficiency, performance, and scalability. Additionally, AI algorithms are utilized in semiconductor manufacturing processes to enhance yield rates, reduce defects, and improve production efficiency. The semiconductor industry also benefits from AI-driven analytics for design optimization and predictive maintenance. As AI applications continue to expand, the semiconductor industry faces opportunities for growth, innovation, and collaboration to meet the evolving demands of AI-powered technologies.

What a great introduction, concise history and overview of the rise of the microchip. "The Rise and Rise of the Microchip - Chips with Everything". Well worth a listen. Also nicely highlights the impact of key pioneering companies and individuals within those companies. Like the first integrated circuit, credited partly to Jack Kilby at Texas Instruments (TI), Spicer Consulting also has it's origins in TI, with three talented engineers, Denis Spicer, John Sackett and Chris Black, based at the Bedford, UK manufacturing facility founding Spicer Consulting Limited in 1995. The Spicer team recognised that one of the factors that might limit the realisation of Moore's law was the impact of magnetic field interference on the performance of SEM tools used to resolve ICs on silicon - with the scale of circuits reducing and the density of circuits increasing, the relative importance of SEM resolution also increased proportionately - and, thus, the importance of accurately sensing and cancelling the local magnetic field in the vicinity of the operational space for the SEM tool. Thankfully, the Spicer magnetic field sensor and active cancellation technology has evolved and improved over time to support the performance of SEM tools - and we are continuing this journey. We're proud to be one of the enabling technologies that makes the bigger companies including, ultimately, global chip manufacturer's look good! #BoldlyGoing #integratedcircuits #magneticfieldcancellation #pioneering #enablingtechnologies #MadeinBritain #electromagneticinterference https://lnkd.in/eSd8Azyi

Chiplets: The End of the Monolithic Age of Silicon Today, the movers and shakers of the semiconductor industry are no longer putting all of their transistors in one chip. Instead, they’re pulling apart their largest, most advanced chips into smaller silicon die referred to as chiplets. These can be made on the best process technology for the job and then repackaged to mimic a single monolithic system-on-chip (SoC). By integrating the heterogeneous die in a single package, such “multi-die�� systems bring more performance to the table for everything from AI to RF.
