With Generative AI and other High-Performance Computing (HPC) demands surging, the costs for AI hardware, infrastructure, and energy consumption are also on the rise. Many companies including OpenAI are finding it getting harder and harder to foot the hefty bill.
AI smartphones are defined as smartphones that can run Large Language Models (LLMs) to perform Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) functions offline. Many may be curious, how will the first batch of AI smartphones differentiate themselves from current ones?
The Winnipeg, Canada-based CEMWorks is looking to bring its electromagnetic (EM) simulation solution to more companies to help develop new technologies, contributing to the "precision and efficiency" of the design, manufacturing, and application process for electronics.
Moore's Law is not advancing as fast as it used to be under 2nm and even into the Angstrom level, and competitors are trying to catch up. Can ASML, the Dutch semiconductor equipment maker, continue its monopolistic leadership in the extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography equipment market?
To maintain its leading position in Artificial Intelligence (AI), Nvidia has mastered its CUDA software, constantly emphasized its affiliation with Taiwan and TSMC, and has even secured strong connections with the server supply chain in practice.
From Nvidia and Microsft to Taiwan's TSMC, Quanta, Wistron, and Foxconn, companies are constantly exploring the future of their businesses with the theme of Artificial Intelligence (AI).
Taiwan's recent efforts to build its own "Starlink" have received growing attention as satellite communication has proven itself inalienable to wartime resilience, but to what degree are the ongoing government-backed satellite programs geared for modern warfare?
Recently, Sravan Vanaparthy, Vice President of Industrial Power Division, Power Solutions Group (PSG) at On Semiconductor (Onsemi), had an exclusive interview with DIGITIMES Research to share Onsemi's views on the current development of SiC power semiconductors, as well as the trends and prospects of SiC power semiconductors next year and in the next 5 to 10 years.
Introspect Technology, a Canadian private company, introduced its M5512 GDDR7 Memory Test System, which is designed for testing GDDR7 memory controllers, GDDR7 physical layers, and GDDR7 SGRAM chips, less than one month after the graphics memory specification was announced in March 2024.
In 2000, Bill Gates visited Taiwan for the World Congress of Information Technology (WCIT), and in 2009, Steve Ballmer, the second president of Microsoft, visited Taiwan only for one day. These were the only two times that the CEOs of Microsoft visited Taiwan.
Compared to TSMC, Samsung Electronics, and even Intel Foundry, which have moved into sub-7nm advanced processes, GlobalFoundries (GF), which announced in August 2018 that it would indefinitely shelve its sub-7nm development, still has a chance to enter the AI market pie. Is there still a chance for GF to get a piece of the AI market pie?
Since the official shipment of the extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography machine in 2017, ASML has sold about 200 units of EUV equipment, critical to manufacturing advanced chips.
