Pragmatic Semi is Breaking the Rules and Bending Silicon Electronics

Author: All About Circuits March 26, 2024 Duration: 57:58

While Moore's Law scaling has driven incredible advancements in computing, AI, and smartphones, many applications don't need or benefit from the most advanced semiconductor nodes. From its inception, Pragmatic Semiconductor's goal has been to take a…well, pragmatic…approach to develop an ultra low-cost, fast cycle time alternative to traditional silicon processing. Oh, and did we mention that the resulting chips and wafers are also flexible?

You will definitely want to check out this Moore's Lobby conversation between White and our host, Daniel Bogdanoff, as they dive into:

-The technology and manufacturing of thin-film silicon

-Europe's largest-ever VC funding for a semiconductor company

-The potential advantages of flexible silicon for building a more robust supply chain

-White's top priorities for improving the flexible silicon ecosystem


In the world of electronics, the real story is often found in the people who design, innovate, and push the boundaries of what's possible. Moore's Lobby: Where engineers talk all about circuits is a monthly podcast that goes beyond datasheets and schematics to explore the human element driving technological progress. Host Daniel Bogdanoff sits down with a diverse range of guests-from hands-on engineers and visionary technologists to the executives steering major organizations-for conversations that are as much about personal journey as technical achievement. Each episode delves into the practical engineering and the broader industry trends shaping our future, but always through the lens of the individual's experience. You'll hear firsthand accounts of breakthrough moments, the challenges of bringing complex ideas to life, and the philosophies that guide leaders in this demanding field. This podcast from All About Circuits connects a global community of professionals who share a deep curiosity for how things work and who makes them work. It’s a space for nuanced discussion that aims to inform, inspire, and provide genuine insight into the circuit-driven world we inhabit. The dialogue here is for those who appreciate the substance behind the innovation, offering a blend of technical depth and narrative that you can naturally integrate into your own perspective.
