Continuous Learning: T.J. Rodgers was a continuous learner. He did not take his failures as a setback but rather learnt from them and moved ahead. In the beginning‚ his company was targeting the niche markets but in 1992 a combination of disasters dragged Cypress into the red‚ and they lost $21 million. He figured out that this niche market strategy had limitations. The crisis required a new approach to reposition the company for growth. He believed in continuous improvement to gain a competitive advantage

Intrinsic Semi Conductors Intrinsic semiconductors are composed of only one kind of material. Silicon and germanium are two examples. They are also called "undoped semiconductors" or "i-type semiconductors". Extrinsic Semi Conductors Extrinsic semiconductors are made of intrinsic semiconductors that have had other substances added to them to alter their properties (they have been doped with another element). There are two types of extrinsic semiconductors: p-type (p for positive: a hole has

Cypress Oil- The eternal oil First let us begin with the basic meaning of cypress. What is cypress? Cypress is a tree found in the Coniferous and Deciduous regions. Though it is quite often linked with mortality‚ the use of the essential oil derived from this tree can cure many conditions. It is a tree which has been associated with aromatic‚ beneficial‚ and calming oil that it produces. It is extremely rich in essential oil with gives many benefits.

Van Gogh’s Wheat Field with Cypresses allows us to view the landscape most likely viewed by the artist while he was hospitalized for mental illness. The landscape of wheat fields and the towering cypress trees is set below the most colorful blue sky. The colors are overly vivid and far from natural. The artist appears to draw the viewer to the sky‚ the most dominating element of the painting. Large brush strokes and the tactile elements of the thick

Background U.S. Semiconductor‚ a semiconductor manufacturer decided to expand their business to UK market in 1980. Their new business plan needed specialized technical support facility in UK. In order to minimize the equity investment‚ they decided to fund their assets mostly with debt. As Semiconductor owned subsidiaries‚ which spread all over the world‚ they face great exchange risk. Besides‚ instead of building a production department in UK‚ Semiconductor kept producing their products domestically

What is Semiconductor A semiconductor is a solid whose electrical conductivity can be controlled over a wide range‚ either permanently or dynamically. Semiconductors are tremendously important technologically and economically. Silicon is the most commercially important semiconductor‚ though dozens of others are important as well. 1.2 What is Semiconductor Industry The semiconductor industry is the collection of business firms engaged in the design and fabrication of semiconductor devices
