The US-based Semiconductor Industry Association trade group on Monday called on the Biden administration to “refrain from further restrictions” on chip sales to China as chief executives from the biggest U.S. semiconductor firms planned to visit Washington this week to press their views on China policy.

There’s a standing joke in the chip design industry that the IIT Madras corridor is the best route to a key role in the global ecosystem One in five semiconductor chips designed at giants such as Qualcomm, Intel, Texas Instruments, and NXP Semiconductors has been through the hands of an Indian, mostly from IITMadras.

The Biden administration s potential curbs on sales of advanced semiconductors to China could undermine huge new government investments in domestic chipmaking, the U.S. chipindustry trade group said Monday.

This is just the beginning as there is more to come as India is rapidly growing as a significant and trusted partner in the global electronics and semiconductor value and supply chain systems, given how China is increasingly being isolated by the Biden administration.

China has also taken steps this month that could undermine its reputation as a reliable link in global supply chains. It said it would limit exports of rare materials needed to make semiconductors, in a step widely seen as retaliation for U.S. limits on the sale of advanced semiconductors to China.

In the company s vision to spread out the information and practical knowledge about the function and application of Semiconductors, Mitsubishi Electric Semiconductor & Devices department extends continuous support to the semiconductors and devices lab project across the country.

Mahindra and Mahindra shares were up 0.5 percent at Rs 1,554 on July 17 at 9: 15 am, with 3 lakh shares changing hands on NSE. The company has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with NXP Semiconductors to explore the electric and connected vehicle landscape in India.

Scientists at the Department of Materials Engineering, Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bengaluru, have developed a super flexible, composite semiconductor material that can be used in flexible or curved displays, foldable phones and wearable electronics.

What makes LiFi so special is the fact that it can be deployed with little modification to the existing WiFi hardware. Simply put, WiFi chip makers can make little changes to the existing WiFi chips to enable them to support LiFi and WiFi simultaneously.

The government is reportedly working on a proposal to support domestic semiconductor chip design companies by taking equity stake in these firms as part of the second phase of the designlinked incentive (DLI) scheme. The first phase of the DLI scheme is currently underway.
