An overview on how Nitto is contributing to more efficient and reliable processes in the semiconductor industry. Visit us at #PCIM Hall 5-Booth 450 from June 11 to June 13 to understand how!

Here is a short animation to explain semiconductor packaging from the very basics to the most advanced architecture... in less than 2min ! #AdvancedPackaging is the next milestone in semiconductor innovation

The Netherlands is already world-renowned for its expertise in critical technologies for the semiconductor value chain. What you may not know is that there’s a whole world of opportunity for foreign companies in the Dutch semicon ecosystem.   Discover 9 reasons why semicon innovation thrives in the Netherlands: https://lnkd.in/e9aAgjRR #InvestInHolland

"The work they’re doing is transformational" said President Joe Biden on Oct. 23, 2023. October 23 marks the one-year anniversary of official designation of Texoma Semiconductor Tech Hub, along with 30 other Tech Hubs distributed across the U.S. The initial assembly of TSTH members occurred on June 9, 2023 in a virtual meeting hosted by the North Central Texas Council of Governments (NCT-COG). Phase-1 Designation and Tech Hubs Strategy Development Grant proposals were submitted on Aug. 15, 2023, at the time, there were 41 members in the consortium. Today TSTH has 64 members and serves 19 counties in North Texas and 10 counties in Southern Oklahoma with a population of more than 9 millions and growing fast. TSTH also includes several strategic members and partners outside the 29-county region. The Texoma region is the birthplace of the integrated circuit, invented by Dr. Jack Kilby at Texas Instruments in 1958. The region has recently enjoyed major expansion in semiconductor manufacturing with significant investment from Texas Instruments (TI) and GlobalWafers - America in the tune of more than $35 billion. TSTH is looking forward to working with its industry partners to make Texoma region a global powerhouse for semiconductor workforce creation, technology innovation and commercialization. In the midst of the unprecedented economic expansion of the region, we trust in what Jack Kilby said in his Nobel Prize acceptance speech: "the best is yet to come." #EDATechHubs #Texoma #Semiconductor #TechHub #SMU #EDA #CHIPSAct Read Texoma Tech Hub Newsletters: https://lnkd.in/gQ23u_yV

The semiconductor manufacturing industry is changing thanks to this initiative. Panama offers many advantages for semiconductor manufacturing. Hopefully in the future we will have local manufacturing companies in Panama! Universidad Tecnológica de Panamá Secretaría Nacional de Ciencia, Tecnología e Innovación (Senacyt)

I don't know. "Amazing"? "Thrilling"? Not sure I'm coming up with superlatives that do this justice. Plenty of nay-sayers will highlight the lack of experience within the US when it comes to advanced packaging. They aren't wrong. But sayers of nay tend to lean on favorably negative facts. (Ick. "Favorably negative" is a terribly accurate thing to say there, unfortunately). And Amkor Technology, Inc. will not have an easy time of it. Arizona has become the new hotspot for semiconductor manufacturing. Already facing tough challenges in workforce establishment, and that's before the heavy lifting of international knowledge transfer. This industry does not sit still. Local universities and community colleges are serving a greater and greater role. And platforms like Chipquest streamline and modernize the onboarding and knowledge transfer process to help avoid the sheer overwhelm already experienced elsewhere. The need is present. The commitment is there (by both government and industry). The workforce tools are in place. I expect success at Amkor AZ. #semiconductor #training #onboarding
