Demand is no issue for silicon carbide (SiC) chip makers. The downstream dependence on these kinds of chips means this segment is now in a concrete position to increase output. Although, it’s likely the heavy hitters in this space—STMicroelectronics, Onsemi, Wolfspeed, and ROHM, and the like—have their attention closely pinned on emerging clean energy markets.  In recent years, we’ve learned that sustainable industries are heavily impacted by...

Supply chains are prone to challenges, particularly when it comes to acquiring technology, but it seems the more and more businesses attempt to bolster the fast-paced evolution of the industries, the harder it becomes to keep up with digitalization as a component HBM manufacturer.  The demand on parts makers has never been greater. As digital solutions form the backbone of society–as shown recently through the global impacts of the Microsoft...

If there were a word to sum up NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang’s response to growing competition in the AI chip segment, it would be “paranoid”, as he told CNBC in the first half of 2024. Despite a major stake in the market—high enough for the company to be referred to as a “moat”—the company still faces an impending boom in artificial intelligence (AI) chip creation.  However, NVIDIA’s response is simply to accelerate its efforts, bringing new chip...
