Open cooperation is a perpetual motion machine for the vigorous development of the semiconductor industry

 

No country can complete the ecosystem of the entire #semiconductor industry chain alone. The semiconductor industry is a long chain, and the development of the global semiconductor industry cannot do without the cooperation of the supply chain.


Take the lithography machine equipment for making chips as an example, why is it not easy for any country to build a lithography machine from 0 to 1. It takes more than 100,000 parts to produce a lithography machine, and these parts come from all over the world.

In terms of integrating the supply chain, #ASML has adopted a variety of strategies:

First of all, ASML actively integrates and invests in cutting-edge technologies around the world. For example, the lithography system of Zeiss in Germany is the core part of the lithography machine, and ASML is the major shareholder of #Zeiss; in 2007, ASML acquired the computational lithography software manufacturer #Brion; In 2012, the three major fabs #TSMC, Samsung, and Intel took a stake in ASML to jointly develop next-generation lithography equipment; in October 2012, ASML acquired #Cymer, an excimer laser source provider in the United States, and so on.


Secondly, ASML focuses on cultivating and attracting outstanding talents around the world, actively promotes the flow of talents and knowledge sharing, enhances the innovative ability of technology research and development, and integrates it with the supply chain to create a complete ecosystem.


The example of lithography machine is a good illustration of the importance of semiconductor globalization. Lansheng Technology Limited (https://www.lanshengic.com/) concluded: "Only with a healthy supply chain and a healthy whole chain, can the semiconductor industry be healthy and long-lasting."

What are the Benefits of Power Optimizers?

Image
  Power optimizer for solar panels is a DC/DC converter that is connected to each solar panel in the PV system, turning them into smart modules. By constantly monitoring the maximum production capacity of each individual solar module, optimizers can increase your PV plant energy production – potentially increasing revenue and shortening system payback time. Simply put, the main benefit of power optimizer is that it maximizes the performance of each panel individually. What are the benefits of power optimizers and why are they needed? When installing solar panels, the panels are connected into groups or arrays. In the case of roof-mounted and in-roof panels, there are usually 12-20 solar panels in one group. If the productivity of one of these panels decreases (shadows from trees and clouds, dust, bird droppings, failures of PV components and other factors), then the productivity of the whole group decreases. Defective or shaded panels may produce 15 to 25 percent less solar energy ...

What is a Power Conditioner?

Image
  Looking to protect your sensitive and expensive electronics? Surge protection is a great start, but power conditioners also offer valuable protection for components in entertainment and sound systems, as well as home office devices. What does a power conditioner do that a surge protector can’t? Surge protectors are a great defense against damaging voltage spikes. However more than surges and spikes can effect certain sensitive electronic devices. Radio frequency interference (RFI), electro-magnetic interference (EMI) and voltage fluctuations can also effect sound, entertainment, and office devices, causing a reduction in sound and picture quality. How does it work? Power conditioners act as a buffer between the outlet and your system, smoothing out voltage fluctuations as well as radio and electromagnetic interference that can effect system performance. Initially used in industrial, research and laboratory applications, not long after the introduction of home computer systems, th...

Intel Ruixuan Graphics DX11 performance update, and launched a new Intel PresentMon\xa0Beta

Image
  【Lansheng Technology Information】Through the release of the latest Game On driver,  Intel  has improved the performance of Intel Ruixuan graphics card running a series of popular DX11 games-bringing an average frame rate increase of about 19% for gamers, and the average About 20% of the 99th Percentile frame rate fluency has been improved. This update opened the prelude to the optimization of Intel Sharp DX11. The above-mentioned games are just the beginning of this optimization. Intel will continue to bring more game experience upgrades to users. Intel  will not stop here, and will continue to optimize Intel Sharp Graphics. The optimization and upgrade of DX11 this time is another proof of Intel's fulfillment of its commitment to players in terms of software optimization and game technology integration. Since the release of desktop graphics cards, Intel has released 30 driver updates, provided 57 new games with Game on optimization support, and provided many other...
