According to the science of composition, a semiconductor is a
material which, when subject to light, heat or a specific
electrical voltage may be transformed into a conductor.
Semiconductors are used to produce memory sticks, PC cards, smart
cards, microchips, microprocessors, transistors, compact flash,
start media, among many other items. Semiconductors have
become critical components in the electronic and automotive
industries focused on technology because they are needed to produce
laptops, televisions, cellphones, medical equipment, printers,
automobiles and almost any other technologically advanced
product.
Over 60% of the semiconductors production manufacturers are
based in Asia, mainly in China and Taiwan and many companies around
the globe depend on them for their semiconductor supply.
