"Typically the product life of a semiconductor chip (nine to 12 months) is less than the time required to construct the facility and install the equipment for manufacturing (24 to 36 months). That's an absurd underestimate of market lifetime. I'd bet that fully 80% of the chips available in 1999 when that report was written are still in production today (or would be, if not for the crunch.) |
