Key Takeaways for quick navigation:
00:00 Dr. Morris Chang, founder of TSMC, speaks at MIT's Manufacturing Distinguished Speaker Series.
02:07 Morris Chang's ties to MIT and his educational background.
03:50 Morris Chang's pivotal role in founding TSMC in 1987, transforming the semiconductor industry.
05:40 Impact of Morris Chang's contributions, including the renovation of MIT's Building E52.
06:21 Topics Morris Chang will cover: TSMC's chip production, technology advancements, and US investments.
07:49 Morris Chang reflects on his time at MIT, emphasizing the influence of failures on his life.
10:25 ? Overview of semiconductor history: transistors, integrated circuits, and the impact of Gordon Moore's Law.
13:16 Pervasiveness of chips in various industries from defense to smartphones and cars.
19:57 Gordon Moore's prediction of the doubling of transistors every 1.5 to 2 years and its impact on chip development.
26:09 Shift from manufacturing-focused to architecture and design in chip technology.
31:28 Rise of Taiwan and South Korea in chip manufacturing over the past three decades.
34:50 Introduction of TSMC's innovative Foundry business model, breaking from traditional integrated device manufacturing (IDM).
36:27 TSMC's success in Taiwan is attributed to well-trained technicians and operators from trade schools, distinct from elite education institutions like MIT.
39:35 Low turnover rates among operators in Japan and Taiwan contribute to manufacturing stability, contrasting with higher turnover in Texas during Morris Chang's experience.
43:13 Geographic concentration of facilities in Taiwan, connected by high-speed trains, allows over a thousand engineers to work in cities away from their home base, promoting effective operations.
45:41 TSMC's ecosystem involves three decades of building upstream and downstream partnerships, with major semiconductor equipment manufacturers and packaging/testing companies in Taiwan.
46:39 The susceptibility of a country to chip manufacturing relates to its economic development status; Taiwan's advantages mirror what the US enjoyed in the 50s and 60s, but Morris Chang predicts a shift to other countries like India or Vietnam in the future.
48:24 The traditional economic model of free market, free trade, and globalization for chips is changing, with potential implications for efficiency and resilience in the chip industry. National security considerations may override economic models. Made with HARPA AI
