Gartner's Sam Wang tosses down the 28nm Silicon Realization gauntlet to IC design houses
May 19, 2011
Sam Wang may have been a Gartner analyst for only six months or so, but he’s already learned how to drop a stunner on the audience. The event was today’s Gartner Semiconductor briefing at the San Jose Doubletree Hotel near the airport. Wang delivered the equipment manufacturing and foundry forecast, but his stunner of a comment wasn’t directly about IC manufacturing or the foundry business, it was about the effect that the forces shaping those business are having and will have on SoC Realization, Silicon Realization, and IC design.
