How Intel Makes Semiconductors in a Global Shortage
Some feature more than 50 billion tiny transistors that are 10,000 times smaller than the width of a human hair. They are made on gigantic, ultraclean factory room floors that can be seven stories tall and run the length of four football fields. Microchips are in many ways the lifeblood of the modern economy. They […]

Chip Errors Are Becoming More Common and Harder to Track Down
Imagine for a moment that the millions of computer chips inside the servers that power the largest data centers in the world had rare, almost undetectable flaws. And the only way to find the flaws was to throw those chips at giant computing problems that would have been unthinkable just a decade ago. As the […]
