  • 2019 Annual Report
    Toppan Merrill - Flex LTD Annual Report Combo Book - FYE 3.31.19 ED | 105212 | 09-Jul-19 16:19 | 19-11297-1.aa | Sequence: 1 CHKSUM Content: 45264 Layout: 60155 Graphics: 0 CLEAN Our Shareholders, Employees, Customers and Partners: In 1969, Joe and Barbara Ann McKenzie started a family business hand soldering electronic parts onto printed circuit boards to help Silicon Valley startups meet their dynamic capacity needs. These “board stuffers,” as they were known back then, decided to name their small company Flextronics. The McKenzies dreamed of revolutionizing the way electronic products were manufactured, not only in Silicon Valley, but all around the world. Fifty years later, we may have shortened the company name from Flextronics to Flex, but our list of achievements and milestones over the past five decades is nothing short of remarkable. Today, we have a broad portfolio of diverse customers, including some of the best-known global brands such as Cisco, Ford, IBM, Johnson & Johnson and Microsoft. From manufacturing early networking equipment and mobile devices for companies like Motorola, Nokia, Juniper and Ericsson to making Palm Pilots, Xboxes, Blackberrys, and HP printers, Flex led the transition from contract manufacturing to value-added Electronic Manufacturing Services (EMS). Our top customers come from more than a dozen different industries, providing us with a unique perspective on many of the fastest growing companies, by industry and by geography. Flex was one of the first American service manufacturers to go offshore by setting up a manufacturing facility in Singapore. The company was one of the first to innovate with full service industrial parks across Asia and eventually other geographies, to bring suppliers closer to the manufacturing line, and to support emerging “just in time” supply chain needs.

  • A Report on Semiconductor Foundry Access by US Academics (Discussion Held at a Meeting Virtually Held at the National Science Foundation on Dec 16, 2020)
    A Report on Semiconductor Foundry Access by US Academics (Discussion held at a meeting virtually held at the National Science Foundation on Dec 16, 2020) Organizers: Sankar Basu1, Erik Brunvand2, Subhasish Mitra3, H.-S. Philip Wong4 Scribes: Sayeef Salahuddin5, Shimeng Yu6 1 NSF, [email protected] 2 NSF, [email protected] 3 Stanford University, [email protected] 4 Stanford University, [email protected] 5 University of California, Berkeley, [email protected] 6 Georgia Institute of Technology, [email protected] 2 Executive Summary Semiconductor technology and microelectronics7 is a foundational technology that without its continued advancement, the promises of artificial intelligence (AI), 5G/6G communication, and quantum computing will never be realized in practice. Our nation’s economic competitiveness, technology leadership, and national security, depend on our staying at the forefront of microelectronics. We must accelerate the pace of innovation and broaden the pool of researchers who possess research capability in circuit design and device technologies, and provide a pathway to translate these innovations to industry. This meeting has brought to the fore the urgent need for access to semiconductor foundry and design ecosystem to achieve these goals. Microelectronics is a field that requires sustained and rapid innovations, especially as the historical rate of progress following a predictable path, is no longer guaranteed as it had been in the past. Yet, there are many plausible paths to move forward, and the potential for further advances is immense. There is a future in system integration of heterogeneous technologies that requires end-to-end co-design and innovation. Isolated push along silos, such as miniaturization of components, will be inadequate.

  • We Need Net Neutrality As Evidenced by This Article to Prevent Corporate
    We need Net Neutrality as evidenced by this article to prevent corporate censorship of individual free speech online, whether its AOL censoring DearAOL.com emails protesting their proposed email fee for prioritized email delivery that evades spam filters, AT&T censoring Pearl Jam which this article is about, or Verizon Wireless censoring text messages from NARAL Pro Choice America. If the FCC won't reclassify broadband under Title II the FTC should regulate Net Neutrality, also the DOJ should investigate corporations engaging in such corporate censorship and if they are violating competition laws break them up. Pearl Jam came out in favor of net neutrality after AT&T censored a broadcast a performance they did in Chicago last Sunday. I guess AT&T didn?t like Pearl Jam?s anti-Bush message. I don?t know if Pearl Jam?s sudden embrace of net neutrality is out of ignorance, or if it?s retaliation. It doesn?t really matter because it should help bring some more awareness to the issue. Here?s the issue with net neutrality, in a nutshell. AT&T wants to charge companies like Amazon, eBay, and Google when people like you and me access their web pages. And if the companies don?t pay, AT&T will make the web sites slower. The idea is that if one company doesn?t pay the fees but a competitor does, AT&T customers will probably opt to use the faster services. IT"S WORTH NOTING: Without content, an Internet connection has no value. Proponents say AT&T built the infrastructure, so they have the right to charge whoever uses it.

    CYPRESS SEMICONDUCTOR CORPORATION Internal Correspondence Date: August 19, 2016 WW: 3316 To: All Cypress Employees Author: T.J. Rodgers Author File#: TJR#1197 Subject: Goodbye cc: BoD, Jim Collins, Larry Sonsini It’s 2:30 in the afternoon on August 17, my last official day at Cypress. After packing my stuff, I realized there were goodbyes to write. So, this won’t be a typical “TJ memo,” revised 10 times, logical and filled with fact-checked data; it will be more stream-of-consciousness in style. In a way, writing this memo is like talking to your wife of 34 years, while she’s on her deathbed. What do you say? I’ve enjoyed being with you? We’ve done a lot of good things together? There are really no appropriate words. But, perhaps there are. In the 1970 movie Patton, as the General leaves his command, he says, “Gentlemen, all good things must come to an end. And the best thing that has happened to me in my life has been the honor and privilege of commanding the 3rd Army. Goodbye, and God bless you.” This is the way I feel about Cypress. We have a lot to be proud of. Cypress was founded in December 1982, when there were 59 publically traded American chip companies. Today, only 15 of them are left—and we are one of the 15. That statement applies to every Cypress employee, whether you came from old Cypress, Spansion, Fujitsu, Broadcom or Ramtron. Each of us has made it in the industry for a long time; we all now fight together under one flag; and we’re all still around because we’ve earned the right to be.
