KEY POINTS
· The government also recently announced the PLI and DLI schemes as major steps towards building a semiconductor ecosystem in the country.
· To develop a semiconductor chip, manufacturing companies must go through several different designing and manufacturing phases and procedures.
· A single chip requires hundreds of litres of pure water, which may be difficult to come by in sufficient amounts in our topography.
· Apart from the constant water supply constraints, one of the most important components of semiconductor manufacturing is a consistent and stable electrical supply.
· Power semiconductors: The Power Management Integrated Circuits (PMICs) and System Basis Chips (SBCs) helps in developing designs for developing automotive, industrial, or consumer applications and extend battery life, and reduce power dissipation.
· Clean Energy India has been one of the fastest-growing solar PV markets in recent times and has flourished due to the participation of major energy industry players with support from the government.
· Ultrapure water is required in these stages as it is used for surface cleaning, solvent processing, and chemical mechanical planarization.
· Because the semiconductor value chain is interrelated and linked with several industries, governments must develop policies that address all the crucial characteristics in the long run.
