In 1970, the expected lifespan of a semiconductor was approximately 30 years. By 2014, this lifespan had been shortened to just ten years—a reduction of 60% in less than half a century. Today, the leading-edge applications that set the lifecycle pace and volume are lucky to have a life of short as 3 years. This […]

In today’s fast-evolving semiconductor landscape, older generations of memory components are increasingly phased out. A recent example is SK Hynix and Samsung retiring their DDR3 production this year, making room for DDR5. However, for industries that develop long-life applications—such as medical devices, defense systems, automotive electronics, networking, telecom, robotics, and home entertainment—these legacy components remain […]
