Junko Yoshida and George Leopold, host The Ojo-Yoshida Report’s Dig Deeper series on sustainable semiconductor manufacturing, assessing the prospects for reducing the chip industry’s carbon footprint.
We Dig Deep into Software-Defined Vehicles
What exactly is Software-Defined Vehicles (SDV)? Who wants it? Do we need it?
Is It Groundhog Day for Memory Chip Suppliers?
Memory suppliers rushing to build new fabs appear destined to reignite the destructive flames of pricing and inventory instability they have just succeeded in putting out.
Who Will Rule Software-Defined Vehicle Architecture?
Knowing Advanced Driver Assistance Systems and In-Vehicle Infotainment Systems might not be enough to win the SDV design derby.
Can TSMC Turn Arizona into Taiwan?
Is Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. prepared—financially, and culturally—to transfer chip production to Arizona?
Generative AI: The Bloom Is Off the Rose
Artificial Intelligence is not living up to the hype. Hallucinations are an intractable part of the problem.
Is TSMC Price Hike Threat Even Enforceable?
TSMC’s costs are surging and this is impacting margins. Business is growing but fending off rising costs has also become a major objective.
Simplifying the Connected Future: Navigating Complexity in the IoT Landscape with Renesas Wireless Connectivity
Whatever device you can think of that makes our lives more convenient, safer and more enjoyable, in today’s world it’s likely to be connected, often wirelessly. Almost everywhere, connectivity is no longer an extra, it’s expected.
AI: Should I Be Faithful or Agnostic?
I feel as though everyone has been cornered into making a consequential choice — to either place our trust in AI or to escalate our AI paranoia.

Intel and ASML Sprint Toward a High-NA Future
Intel is committed to a monumental struggle to catch TSMC in process technology. Will their efforts pay off?
Embedded Quest at Nuremberg
We cornered engineers and executives at various companies at Embedded World, and asked their perception of the state of the embedded market and what they see must be solved.
Who Wants Rapidus in Silicon Valley?
Japan’s startup foundry Rapidus has just opened its office in Santa Clara, Calif. Why? For its survival, it needs customers, and those who need AI processors on 2-nm process node are not in Japan but in Silicon Valley.
US Semiconductor Hegemony is Real and Unassailable
Reports of America’s waning influence over the chip industry ignore a reality that has now been resurrected by the CHIPS Act: America never lost its grip on the market. That hold will become even stronger as America welcomes its first set of new and advanced fab in decades.
Smart vs. Useful
It’s way too easy to call your product “smart” as long as nobody asks whether its smartness translates into usefulness.
Acute Shiny Object Syndrome Can Ruin You
All that glitters is not gold. Companies must use caution in chasing targets they can’t capture or objects that are less valuable than imagined.
The Audacity of Tenstorrent
“AI is still new,” says Tenstorrent COO Keith Witek. The startup is plotting to find an opening by listening to customers, instead of following the playbook of successful AI incumbents like Nvidia.
TSMC Fabs Operating Close to Capacity after Earthquake
TSMC’s disaster recovery plans helped with the quick restoration of production at its fabs after Taiwan was hit with a 7.2 magnitude earthquake.
Microchip: ‘Shared Pains’ in the Wake of a Supercycle
Microchip is navigating its way through a sharp downcycle with the aid of an old remedy of “shared pains, shared gains.” No job cuts but a salary shave is the key ingredient. Is this worth emulating?
ST’s Key to Unlock China: ‘Manufacturing’
ST’s volume MCU shipments, strong developer ecosystem and broad distribution have positioned ST as a leader in the general MCU market. But above all, ST’s manufacturing skill could garner a real prize in China, according to ST’s MCU chief Remi El-Ouazanne.
