Dear friends Today let's quickly understand what a semiconductor is. As the name suggests, a semiconductor is a material whose conductivity is between that of a conductor and an insulator. It has some unique properties, such as the ability to change its conductivity by doping. This characteristic makes semiconductors the core of modern electronic technology. In our daily lives, from mobile phones, computers to various smart devices, semiconductors are all indispensable. They play a key role in these devices, such as processing information and transmitting signals. The development of semiconductors has promoted the rapid progress of technology, making our lives more intelligent and convenient. In short, a semiconductor is such a magical and important material, and it is one of the important pillars of modern technology. #IC #Semiconductor #Integrated #Chips

Expanding technology - the evolution of semiconductors Semiconductors can be combined and manipulated to create unique electronic devices: diodes and transistors. In 1965, Gordon E. Moore, Ph.D., presented a scientific article in which he proposed that the number of transistor-based electronic circuits would double every two years. This observation has been proven and has become a fundamental law. Thus, the number of transistors on a microchip has increased exponentially, expanding the information processing capabilities of a device and reducing the cost of its manufacture. Today, microchips contain up to 1.7 billion transistors. Why is this incredible? The answer is that we are getting faster and smaller computers, cell phones, and other electronic devices at affordable prices. And the trend, still according to Moore's Law, is for these electronic circuits to become more efficient and faster as the number of transistors on a single small microchip or nanochip increases. #electricalengineering #electrotechnician #electronics #electronicengineering #industrialelectronics

The semiconductor industry is at the forefront of innovation, with semiconductors managing the flow of electricity through an intricate process of binding valence electrons from different atoms. Semiconductors are responsible for operating most modern technology, like phones, digital cameras, computers, TV’s, and more. In our latest blog post, we explore how the semiconductor industry is doubling computing power every two years and how this exponential growth is driving technological advancements.

Tech Tonic | Where are all of the #world’s #chips being made? ▪️Would it be hyperbole to say that hidden within a chip circuitry, is the destiny of the human race? No surprise then, everyone’s eyeing a stake in that pie▪️ The tale of a #semiconductor and a chip. #Semiconductors is a broader term for materials such as #germanium, #gallium #arsenide as well as #silicon. These #elements are receptive to electrical current flow, and therefore used to make #integrated #circuits for #microcontrollers that can be found in simpler analogue devices, and are also foundational elements of chips, or #processors. It is an interchange that shouldn’t really happen but is more commonplace in conversations, than we realise.
