To understand SkyWater’s origins, one must first rewind to the convergence of national security and semiconductor manufacturing. For decades, the U.S. military and intelligence agencies relied on advanced microelectronics built on American soil. Semiconductors powered guidance systems, radars and signal processors from the Cold War era onward.
At the
As PCIe 5.0 and 6.0 dominate headlines in the semiconductor industry, it’s tempting for every SoC design team to reach for the newest protocol available. But not every application needs blazing-fast 32GT/s throughput—and not every market segment can afford the power, complexity, and cost penalties that come with bleeding-edge PHYs.
