Abstract

VLSI Wiki is an open community that encompasses all knowledge related to semiconductors and VLSI—from fundamental theories to the latest technology trends.
To bring future technologies such as AI, autonomous driving, Mars exploration, and the Metaverse to life, semiconductors are the essential hardware.

I’ve always had many questions:

“What does this term mean?”
“How should I choose my career path?”
“What if I make a mistake?”
“Who can I ask when I don’t understand something?”
“And what about investing, debugging, or research papers…?”

With a variety of concerns on my mind, I decided to create this website to share my journey and address your questions—ultimately contributing to the semiconductor industry.
My ultimate goal is to serve as a beacon of progress for the global semiconductor industry, sparking positive change for both my company and society at large.

Author

Hi again, this is Chase.

MBTI: ESTJ, Nationality: South Korea. And I like movies and traveling.
Do you have any more questions? If not, I’ll go back to VLSI Wiki story.

To be honest, every time I sit down to write, a wave of apprehension hits me:

“What if my writing isn’t good enough?”
“Is it really okay for me to share these thoughts?”

But no one starts off perfect, and once something is finished, it can help others—that in itself is a success.

I am constantly learning and striving for continuous improvement.
If you notice any shortcomings or areas for enhancement, please feel free to guide me with your warm feedback. 🙏

Conclusion
