As the digital landscape evolves, semiconductor chips are more needed than ever. Unfortunately, the current semiconductor shortage is impacting every industry that runs on these essential materials—from automotive to consumer electronics to lighting and LEDs and beyond. After 2021’s supply chain challenges, many are looking to 2022 to be the year where the shortage is […]
Precise and reliable gas delivery is a crucial part of semiconductor manufacturing. And with today’s increased costs of manufacturing semiconductors and the recent semiconductor shortage, time can simply not be wasted on compromised gas purity. Semiconductor manufacturing is a complex process where multiple gases in varying flow rates are carefully delivered to process chambers in […]
The tech world is abuzz about 5G—and for good reason. This fifth generation of wireless technology for digital cellular is driving potential for high-tech companies that are developing increasingly connected devices and smart products. 5G is also requiring semiconductor fabs—which produce the chips these devices need to operate—to keep up. The rollout of 5G has […]
Today’s digital transformations have driven growth in the semiconductor industry, with the 300mm silicon wafer market expected to increase by 5% in 2021. Along with this growth has come a greater pressure on fabs to increase output. Bulk gas delivery systems that support higher flow rates can solve this need—but they come with engineering hurdles […]
