...in TI's RFAB in Richardson, TX. Been working in wafer fabs since '89. Litho, then Thinfilms, then Etch, now back to Thinfilms. Yes, it is crazy what goes into making chips. Even silicon is finite!
Speaking of water usage, fabs use tons of it. The helium supply is also on it's last leg. I read somewhere that there's about 16 years' worth left at current usage rates.
The fact that all resources are finite, and that population growth is and always will be exponential are scary thoughts. Love my boys, but kinda wish I hadn't brought kids into this unpredictable world. That's why I live for the day. No telling what tomorrow has in store.
Keep up the good work. Hopefully our efforts pay off for future generations.
