Just as the proliferation of AI is driving data center growth, the rising demand of mobile data traffic is driving next-generation wireless communications systems. Across SATCOM, aerospace, defense and communications infrastructure, next-generation RF systems must deliver higher output power, wider bandwidth and increased efficiency while simultaneously reducing system size, cost and complexity. The innovative engine…

When Artemis II lifted astronauts beyond Low Earth Orbit for the first time in more than 50 years, it marked another milestone in human exploration. But missions like these are only possible because of electronics that perform flawlessly in one of the most unforgiving environments imaginable. Navigation, communication and life-support systems for modern spaceflight all…

The defining challenge in advanced semiconductor innovation today is aligning breakthrough ideas with the realities of manufacturing as early as possible. As architecture becomes more interdisciplinary and system‑driven, early technical decisions increasingly shape what can ultimately be built, produced and sustained over time. When manufacturability, yield and system level integration are addressed late, options quickly…

AI infrastructure is scaling simultaneously within the rack, across the data center and between data center campuses. That multidimensional growth is redefining the industry’s core challenge. The constraint is no longer compute alone, but the speed, efficiency and reliability of data movement at scale. As AI workloads grow more distributed and bandwidth-intensive, the industry is…

Imagine a world where semiconductor manufacturing operations extend beyond the physical boundaries of the wafer fabrication plant (“fab”). A world where engineering support, data analytics and process optimization teams are seamlessly working 24/7 across time zones and locations, delivering speed and efficiency to customers. That’s the idea behind GlobalFoundries’ Global Fab Engineering Services (GFES), a…

As cloud infrastructure scales and AI workloads accelerate, data centers face unprecedented demand to deliver dramatically higher bandwidth with greater energy efficiency. While compute performance rapidly advances, the system bottleneck has shifted to the optical interconnects and transceivers that link these systems together. Achieving longer reach, higher bandwidth density and lower energy per bit now…
