This interview features: Uttam Singhal, CEO, SignOff Semiconductors Pvt. Ltd.
Tell me a bit about your background? How did you first get started with your company?
I have spent over 25 years in the semiconductor industry, beginning my career in full-custom analog and memory design before transitioning
Choosing between 28nm, 40nm, and 65nm is one of the most common — and most underestimated — decisions in ASIC development.
These nodes dominate industrial, automotive, consumer, and IoT ASICs, yet teams often choose based on habit or outdated assumptions. In reality, the differences between 28nm, 40nm, and 65nm
Choosing a 22nm process node is not just a scaling decision — it is a strategic choice that affects power consumption, cost structure, ecosystem access, and long-term product risk.
For many ASIC and SoC teams, 22nm sits at the crossroads between mature nodes (28nm/40nm) and more advanced, higher-risk technologies.
In this exclusive interview, Mika Jäsberg, Head of Sourcing, Manufacturing, and Operations at CoreHW, shares insights into the company’s next-generation real-time location system (RTLS). He discusses CoreRTLS Tag series, CoreRTLS-LOC4000, and CoreRTLS software—highlighting innovations in accuracy, scalability, and security that position CoreHW as a leader in location intelligence technology.

28nm is a turning point in ASIC development. It is often described as a “mature advanced node,” but in practice it represents the last node where many non-hyperscale teams can realistically operate. Beyond 28nm, ASIC economics, risk, and organizational requirements change dramatically.
This article explains what drives 28nm wafer and
40nm is often the first node where advanced-node realities become unavoidable. While still planar, 40nm introduces a level of complexity, cost sensitivity, and schedule risk that is very different from 55nm and above. As a result, cost assumptions at 40nm are frequently optimistic — especially for first-time ASIC teams.
