There's a reason why I post during work hours. I take a long lunch. I eat slowly due to the stress. I see nothing wrong. I also need frequent breaks. For the stress. Semiconductor is stressful.
All this is of course built into the price of the equipment and services we sell. Now you know why western stuff is always much more expensive than Chinese, Japanese or Korean.
Funny. I also post during work hours. I also take a long lunch.
Just entirely due to opposite reasons.

Abstract
Metal assisted chemical etching (MACE), as an emerging wet chemical etching method for fabricating semiconductor micro/nano-structures (MNS), has attracted wide attentions because of the advantages of simple processes, high accuracy and no damages. However, the conventionally used noble metal catalysts (such as Au, Pt,) trapped in the micro/nano-structures are difficult to be removed or reused, not only harming the electronic performances of the CMOS devices but also increasing the fabrication cost. Here, we propose an electrochemical nanoimprint strategy by using a glassy carbon (GC) imprint mold. To overcome the poor electrocatalytic activity of GC, the GC imprint mold was connected to a Pt sheet in the cathodic chamber. To avoid the contaminations of metal and metallic cations in the fabricated MNS, the cathodic chamber was separated from the anodic one by a proton exchange membrane. By optimizing the technical parameters, including the contact pressure between GC imprint mold and GaAs wafer, the concentration of electron acceptor in the cathodic chamber, the imprinting time, etc., a remarkable corrosion rate of about 130 nm/min was achieved, comparable with that of platinum electrocatalyst. Furthermore, by using a GC imprint mold in the spatially separated corrosion cell, the contaminations caused by both the metal catalysts and metallic ions can be eliminated. Thus, this work provides a potential approach to the high throughput fabrication of CMOS-compatible semiconductor microdevices.
Who is the DAMO company? How big are they or are they a new company? I tried looking it up but couldn’t find anything. They could be taking a loss to gather some marketshare and create brand recognition. YMTC margins may not necessarily be taking any impact from it.
1. What the CEO of NVIDIA said recently in the press, is nothing new, radical, nor surprising, it was just common sense and logical. If some Americans in Washington DC found it surprising, that just shows how disconnected Washington DC is, and nothing more. The gap in understanding between Washington DC and a fab, is just too wide.
2. This thing could be a lot closer to FUBAR than anyone would care to admit.

This kind of stuff makes me wonder how many Chinese phones are using Micron products rather than YMTC SSDs or even DRAMs produced by Samsung/SK in China
it would make sense for companies like Honor to move off Micron if they want to not be banned in the future from Chinese govt or SOE issued phone contracts. It seems to me the next move is to just prevent corporate phones from using Micron products, that would actually force even iPhone to not use Micron. Since iPhone is unlikely to make a phone just for greater China market, the non-Micron iphones would probably expand to most of APAC region
I think that's likely the next shoe to drop in terms of ramping up sanctions. But even without further notifications, Chinese phone & PC makers likely getting pressured by govt to no longer use Micron products. All of this is good for YMTC

Equipped with domestic SiC, this car breaks the Guinness record
On June 6, Sany Group's electric heavy-duty truck "Mota 1165" launched its maiden voyage on the road. It set off from Changsha to Shenzhen, and recorded the whole process live. The goal is to "conquer 800 kilometers with one charge " .
On June 7, Mota 1165 drove into the Shenzhen Park and successfully set a Guinness World Record for a semi-trailer electric truck - 817.5 kilometers on a single charge. Guinness officially issued a certificate to Sany Group on the spot.
It is reported that the energy consumption of the Mota 1165 is less than 135kWh/100km, and the operating cost is less than 1 yuan/km. Compared with fuel vehicles, it can pay back the cost in 3 years and earn nearly one million yuan more in 5 years . In terms of charging, the Magic Tower 1165 is equipped with 4 fast charging ports, and the charging time from 10% to 90% is about 1.5 hours.
Based on such achievements, a total of 6 logistics companies and Sany Heavy Truck ordered 138 Mota 1165 units that day.
According to Esprin, the electric control of Mota 1165 adopts the company's latest 800V high-voltage platform silicon carbide dual-motor controller , and uses a 1700V SiC MOSFET module, with a total power of 550kW.
