Semiconductor Sourcing for Robotics: Managing Lead Times and Component Lifecycle Risks

As robotics adoption accelerates globally, procurement and engineering teams are being forced to rethink how they manage lead times, component lifecycles, and sourcing risk within increasingly volatile semiconductor markets.

Semiconductor Innovations for the Next Generation of Robots

Each motor requires high power density and precise control, all packed into a small form factor. TI's technology reduces the size of the board by integrating FETs, drivers and current sensing into one package.

2D cameras for positioning and inspecting ultra-fine wires in semiconductor production

Wire bonding is a key process in semiconductor production. Extremely fine wires with diameters of 15 to 75 micrometers are used to create tiny electrical connections between a semiconductor chip and other components.
