Abstract :
The "system driver" roadmaps for microprocessor, SoC, and other key products help unify and align more than a dozen supplier industries within the overall semiconductor technology roadmap. This column examines the relationship between product roadmaps and technology roadmaps, and the ever-present need to develop improved product roadmaps.
