The Chip Insider® Strategy & Tactics Strategy and Tactics: America’s search for leading-edge fabs. Summaries: Important ChipChirps™ ChipChirps™ are exclusively available on VLSI’s App for Android and iOS America’s search for leading-edge fabs: The recent battles between China and America have tended to not be framed by the semiconductor issue. Instead they have centered on trade and jobs, with the Coronavirus an emergent hot point. But the semiconductor issue, often hidden, has been not too far below the surface because it is an existential threat to national security. As control over oil was the strategic national security fulcrum of the 20th century, semiconductors are for the 21st century. Of course, everyone in our industry knows this, yet...
