Quantum-Engineered Material Boosts Transistor Performance
Power management integrated circuits (PMICs) primarily provide required voltage levels in electronics applications. Many PMICs, as well as other mixed signal devices use 5V transistors as switches. Switch performance is strictly related to two key factors: low...
Atomera aims to boost power chip production with new tech
Atomera Inc (ATOM.O) on Tuesday said it has come up with a new technology that could boost the production output of power-management semiconductors, a category of chip found in nearly every electronic device that has been in short supply globally. Read all...
Atomera breathes new life into Moore’s law with better power efficiency
Chip startup Atomera said it can breathe new life into Moore’s law with better power efficiency for analog chips. Los Gatos, California-based Atomera said its Mears Silicon Technology Smart Profile — a quantum-engineered film based on 15 years of research and...
The Good, the Bad, and the Weird: 3 Directions for Moore’s Law
Continuing to scale down the size of transistor features has become costlier and trickier in recent years. So much so that only four manufacturers of logic chips—GlobalFoundries, Intel, Samsung, and TSMC—were even planning to continue the multibillion-dollar effort....
