This year a number of agencies downgraded semiconductor output forecast

Average selling prices fell due to the impact, including Gartner (Gartner), and other research institutions have lowered the tone semiconductor output forecast this year, more than previously estimated by the single-digit percentage growth, the recession reduced to single-digit percentage point level.
    
According to the International Semiconductor Industry Association (SEMI) stated that Gartner had forecast this year, the semiconductor industry's output will grow by 1.9%; the World Semiconductor Trade Statistics (WSTS) forecast also the semiconductor industry's output will grow 1.4%.
    
Cowen LRA estimates, the semiconductor output will grow 4.9%; IC Insights estimates, semiconductor output will grow 4%. SEMI said various research coordinating body more than the original estimate, semiconductor output will grow low-single-digit percentage point level.
    
According to WSTS statistics merely the first half of semiconductor output reduction of 6% over last year; SEMI statistics, the amount of semiconductor equipment shipments in the first half decreased by 3% over last year.
    
In addition, the first half of the silicon wafer area shipments are also down 2 percent from a year earlier.
    
Including Gartner and other research institutions have lowered the tone this year, semiconductor output estimates, and more positive growth from the original, into a single-digit percentage decline, falling product prices are the main cause of the recession affect output; that is expected to Gartner, semiconductor output will be reduced by 3%; WSTS also predicts that semiconductor output will be reduced by 2.3%.

Diodes Release enables asynchronous communication Octal Transceiver

Diodes has introduced enables asynchronous communication between data bus 74LVT245BB Octal transceiver control pin determines the direction of data flow, and disable tri-state output, allows completely isolated from the general line. Conventional data bus is mainly used for computer applications, and now televisions, set-top boxes, base stations and a variety of other data communication devices are widely used to provide a broad market for a variety of transceiver circuits.
74LVT245BB device is normal asynchronous communication between data bus provides a partial power-down function, thereby disabling the output current backflow and prevent damage when the device is powered down. The device also adopted during power remain tri-stated output to withstand hot insertion. Schmitt trigger input also includes a bus hold function, and therefore do not need to input resistor unused. Combined with better than 500mA latch immunity, these transceivers can contribute to the achievement of a wide range of design, can be hot-swappable application server computer and cellular telephone base stations without having to switch off the device.
74LVT245BB device specified in the 2.7V to 3.6V operating supply voltage range, can drive 3.3V or 5V input, allowing mixed logic voltage applications. The output can absorb 64mA or 32mA current offer and have <125μA leakage current when forced to reach 5.5V. 74LVT245BB device propagation time is 2.7ns (typical), has a driving capability for large bus architecture, and power-down feature to avoid loading the data bus, bringing advantages in power performance ratio, reliability and cost.

Intel's acquisition of Nervana Systems develop artificial intelligence technology

According to the "Wall Street Journal" online edition reported, artificial intelligence technology industry has become a popular trend. In this trend, driven by technology companies are competing to acquire start-up companies in the field of artificial intelligence, Intel became the latest to join the ranks of the acquisition of the company.
Intel on Tuesday announced that it will acquire artificial intelligence start-up companies Nervana Systems, to develop called "deep learning" popular artificial intelligence techniques. Nervana is a company with 48 employees engaged in the semiconductor, software and service development.
Intel did not disclose the purchase price.
Prior to this, Apple on Friday the acquisition of artificial intelligence company Turi Inc. Venture capital research firm CB Insights data show that since 2011, the company acquired a large number of transactions artificial intelligence start-up companies reached 31 pen, these big companies, including Google, Twitter, Yahoo, IBM and Salesforce.com.
PwC calculations included smaller-scale acquisitions, so far this year with AI-related start-up companies has reached 29 pen acquisitions this year, the total transaction volume is expected to exceed last year announced 37 pen.
After the 2010 acquisition of startup Siri, Apple promoted the rapid development of artificial intelligence in the consumer sector. After the acquisition of Turi, Apple is expected to benefit from Turi CEO Carlos Gus Sterling (Carlos Guestrin) expertise, which is the University of Washington professor of machine learning.
"Artificial intelligence will gradually change every industry," a pioneer in the field of deep learning, Baidu's chief scientist and Stanford University associate professor Andrew Ng expressed. He believes that the acquisition of buyer demand for talent to more than technology.
Intel's acquisition of the company's artificial intelligence has a special motivation. Although Xeon chip can handle most computing tasks in the data center, but rival Nvidia GPU faster handling specialized tasks associated with deep learning.

IBM introduced DeepFlash 150 all-flash array

IBM recently extended its full line of flash memory products, has launched a new all-flash array --IBM DeepFlash 150. The product is intended to be a cost-effective manner and to control the big data, especially unstructured data. As a result, IBM is currently available, covering almost all of the workload of the flash memory product portfolio.
IBM storage systems and file person in charge with the object storage product manager Alex Chen said the new IBM DeepFlash 15 planned sale in the near future, aimed not find the desired functions on a standard all-flash storage solutions for application type. But most of all-flash arrays tend to focus on more traditional applications, such as virtual desktop infrastructure, block storage, and online transaction processing.
IBM DeepFlash 150 can handle large data sets. IBM claims that its new array density per rack or a single rack unit 170TB capacity flash memory capacity 7PB. High-density flash level so that DeepFlash 150 is also ideal for financial services, healthcare, e-commerce, telecommunications, entertainment and media, and cloud service providers. In addition to its high capacity and performance than flash memory, DeepFlash 150 is also very cost effective per GB capacity of not more than $ 1. IBM recommends that customers use their combined DeepFlash 150 IBM Spectrum Scale, in order to provide key functions covered storage services and big data workloads optimized.
