The shortage of supply in the PMIC market is expected to continue. The key lies in the increase in the supply side. In the future, we should continue to observe the changes in the general environment.
Wafer-level packaging (WLP) has gained traction over the past decade as the semiconductor industry continues to push for generations of higher-performance chips. Back-end packaging technologies are becoming increasingly important in meeting the demands of low-latency, high-bandwidth, and low-cost semiconductor devices.
Taiwan's semiconductor industry is booming, and sub-industries such as wafer foundry, back-end packaging, and testing, and IC design are among the best in the world.
The first and second generations of semiconductors used silicon (Si) and gallium arsenide (GaAs) as their base material. Wide Bandgap semiconductors refer to new semiconductors produced in a third generation of semiconductors which use silicon carbide (SiC) and gallium nitride (GaN) as their base material.
GaN and SiC - Third-generation semiconductor materials have been widely used in producing blue and green LEDs and lasers. GaN and SiC production has become an essential technology for many semiconductor manufacturers.
Electronic components are the basic components combined together to make complete electronic products. Understanding the functions, types, structures, and properties of commonly used electronic components is fundamental to understanding electronic technology.
Governments are actively promoting the development of regional semiconductor supply chains. AI combines emerging technologies and applications such as the Internet of Things, automotive electronics, and compound semiconductors to drive the growth momentum of the semiconductor industry.
A bipolar junction transistor (BJT) is a current-driven semiconductor element that uses a small amount of current to control the flow of a larger electric current. In contrast to a unipolar transistors, such as a field-effect transistors which uses only one kind of charge carrier, a BJT uses both electrons and electron holes as charge carriers. BJT Transistors can be used to amplify weak electrical signals and are also used as oscillators or as switches.
Integrated circuits are a combination of wide-ranging electronic circuits integrated into a semiconductor chip. They are designed to perform the advanced computational functions which are used in key processor programs. Let's learn more about these fascinating integrated circuits.
All electronic products must use the Printed Circuit Board (PCB) to fix the integrated circuit (IC) and other electronic components, and all the integrated circuits and electronic components with different functions are connected with thin copper wires to provide a stable working environment so that electronic signals can circulate between different electronic components.
Semiconductor supply chain include all kinds of semiconductor manufacturing and design industries, such as IC manufacturing, IC packaging and testing, IC design, and discrete component manufacturing.
In 2020, Taiwan manufacturing output will decline by about 5%, but the semiconductor industry will maintain positive growth. Semiconductor refers to a material whose conductivity can be controlled. The upstream of the semiconductor industry chain is IP and IC design, the midstream is IC, wafer, mask or chemical manufacturing, and the downstream is the packaging and testing industry.
