 Current Environment
 Key Industry Ratios and Statistics

Industry Background
From the early 1900s to the 1950s :
vacuum tubes
 Invention of the transistor in 1948
 In 1958, integrated circuit (IC)
 In 1971, Intel Corp.; Intel 4004
microprocessor, which ran at 108
kilohertz and served as a
component in a calculator

Industry Background
Ongoing technological advancement
 Rising performance, falling prices
 Moore’s Law describes pace of
innovation
 Inherent cyclicality
 Huge capital investments
 Marketing chips: going for the
design win
 Targeting the end user

How Chips Are Made





Semiconductors are produced through a highly
advanced and complex manufacturing process.
The two basic stages in chip production are the “front
end” and the “back end.”
The front end involves materials preparation (circuit
design, photomask making, and manufacture of raw
wafers) and wafer processing (repeated cycles of
deposition, etch, doping, planarization, and in-process
testing).
The back end consists of packaging and final test
operations.

Business Structure
definitions:

Microprocessor
A microprocessor is an electronic computer component made from
tiny transistors and circuit elements on a single semiconductor
integrated circuit (IC). The semiconductor chip is controlled by the
central processing unit (CPU) which is also the most well known
microprocessor.

Flash memory
Flash memory is a form of rewritable memory similar to the Random
Access Memory (RAM) that allows the storage of information without
the need for a power supply. Examples of Flash memory are USB
flash drives, MP3 Players, digital cameras and cell phones
