Stanford, Korean nanofab center,
Oregon-based semi startup claim 3D IC
breakthrough
To
allow low-cost memories and
high-performance logic products with
large embedded memory blocks, Stanford
University's Nanofabrication Facility
along with Daejeon, Korea-based National
NanoFab Center and Beaverton, Ore-based
BeSang Inc are reporting what they say
is a 3D IC technology breakthrough. Read

FPGAs aren't gone yet—or even slowing
down. But...
If
the back-end flow in FPGA designs is
becoming as complex and difficult as the
back-end design for a cell-based ASIC,
then the major savings in NRE have to
come from other areas. EDN's
Ron Wilson presents an interesting
economic implication concerning the
future of FPGAs in this Practical Chip
Design blog post, where he also welcomes
your thoughts on the semiconductor
market segment. Read
