Maroney: COVID Chip Crunch Was Driven by Foundational Chips

“A lot of that supply chain challenge actually came from foundational chips. Chips like the chips that are built in this factory that TI built.”

BIG TECHNOLOGY Disclosure

TI Avoids R&D Handoffs By Moving Entire Research Teams To Productization

“At that point, that same core team moves full time out of Kilby and into the to the productization teams that are responsible for building the products and driving it to high volume. And so now there's complete ownership. There's no baton passing. It's one tea…”

TI Rewrote Tracking Software After Chip Density Exceeded System Limits

“We ended up building a chip small enough that it broke one of our systems. It was a Y-IIK moment. You know, you go from 1999 to 2000, and the system wasn't designed to handle as many chips as we could fit in this. And so we had to actually redo the software so…”

TI's Maroney: Modern Cars Often Contain Over 3,000 Semiconductor Chips

“I think in today's cars, depends, of course, on your model, but it's not uncommon to see over 3000 chips in a car. Most of them are foundational technology chips.”
