The rise of derivative chips – driving the new out of now

As technology advances rapidly, chips must change in months, not years.

Most semiconductor companies have leveraged derivative chips for years because modifying features of an existing, proven chip is more manageable & quicker than developing brand-new technology. It also prolongs the lifecycle of a chip that took millions of dollars to develop such that greater ROI can be realized.

Modifying an existing chip’s base design can help achieve many of the incremental feature demands of present so it’s apt to say that:

“Derivative chips are no longer just a way to extend the life of a chip for return on investment (ROI), but a necessity for keeping up with evolving market demands.”

Read from our latest point of view on how derivative chips are helping to deliver the New from the Now.
