You underestimate the technology behind EUV machine. Building a EUV is far more complex than even going to the moon. It's more likely Chinese will have a shot at going to the moon than building viable EUV machine. Why I say that? Read on. The research to start building EUV machine started in...

Unless they come up with EUV machine it is not possible. Moreover, 5nm, 7nm node is a marketing hype. I read upon this topic little bit. So basically Intel and TSMC have totally different way of measuring the process node. Intel's 10nm has the same transistor density as TSMC's 7nm. So Intel is...

No foreign player will set up a fab. Stop dreaming. Just focus on getting a mature node to be built and develop the in house talent to make 28nm, 45nm and 65nm node chips. I believe 28nm node chips will be the standard in future for all chips used in user and industrial applications except for...

Not even fresh potable grade. We are talking about Ultra pure water. Literally no trace of minerals or salts should be present in it. If you drink enough of it you will die because there are no minerals or salts, it acts as a sponge when it enters your body and soaks up all the electrolytes...

Anything above 65nm is useless. 65nm node fab can be easily constructed with just $1 - $1.5 billion investment. It is a very mature node. I will be happy if we can start from there. However, I have read news articles which said technology to make chips at 28nm scale has been transferred to...

Designing CPUs is an art and craft in itself. This effort cannot discounted in any way. I hope their ARM CPU lives up to the expectation. There is another company called Ampere which designs only ARM CPUs for use in server stations. You can even buy ARM desktop designed by them...

I think first we need to build a fab which can make 28nm node chips. First we need to focus on running a fab and gaining skills from it. Develop an ecosystem around low end semiconductor chips and then think about upgrading to advanced nodes. And then we can allocate resources to making...

You obviously have no idea about how Scientific research is conducted, how much resources we need, how many skilled human resources you require to develop a critical technology. ->Japan massively invested in high speed rail in 1970's. Today they are a leader in High speed rail with perfect...

Take it with a pinch of salt. Saudi Arabia doesn't have access to large sources of water. Saudi Arabia more importantly doesn't have skilled labor either. Announcements mean nothing. They said the same about investing in US state of Wisconsin and that didn't pan out. I am skeptical about this...

Oh boy, you think this is just about patents? We are talking about a technology which is more difficult to master than going to the moon. Yes, it is that difficult. Today you allocate $100 billion to ISRO and $100 billion to top minds in the country to build a EUV machine in 10 years. Guess...

I hope it's Gujarat. TN is risky as these days they are threading the path of Bengal by protesting against industries like Nuclear plant, Sterlite copper, Neutrino project etc.

They are not coming. They are focused on expanding their operations elsewhere. Instead plan to have a 28nm fab in India by talking to others who have bid for the PLI scheme. I still don't know with what confidence both Vedanta and Foxconn are foraying into semiconductor manufacturing when they...

Oh fuck, now that tower is acquired I highly doubt Intel will follow through with that proposal. GoI needs to up the ante. US and EU are doling out $50 billion and they already have a ecosystem for semiconductor fabs. We have to dole out $20 billion payed over period of time depending on the...

Foxconn? really? Foxconn is good at putting together components from different vendors. They have no experience in semiconductor manufacturing. I don't know what exactly they will bring to the table here that Vedanta would be interested in. I hope Vedanta is going for setting up 28nm node at least.
