We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Semiconductor industry",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Electronicstalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Certification speeds body monitor development from
Toumaz Technology, which we summarised at the time by saying "Meeting the ISO quality management standard is a crucial part of the commercialisation of Sensium, Toumaz' wireless platform for nonintrusive body monitors for healthcare and lifestyle
markets".
Earlier in the week,
we featured the news release EUVL experiments explore manufacturing options from
IMEC: "The collaboration between CNSE and IMEC will also involve scientists from IBM and ASML, which has built the world's first full-field EUVL R and D tool, the Alpha Demo Tool".
In January 2008, we covered the news from National Instruments
concerning its LabView and board-level instruments
- take a look at Test technologies keep up with design complexity
which says: "Eric Starkloff highlights five trends he expects will significantly influence the test and measurement industry over the next three years".
Take a look also at the news release from Cadence Design Systems, Programme cuts time and risk for start-ups,
as well as Wafer probing provides 45nm resolution from Cascade Microtech,
and Patent protects mixed signal technology down under from Toumaz Technology.
