Every two years the Semiconductor Research Corp., an industry consortium of chip firms, holds a chip design challenge. The challenge generally reflects a concern in the industry, but is really a chance for SRC members to evaluate the latest crop of chip designers coming out of colleges around the country. Think of it as a draft for engineers. This year’s challenge was a 60GHz chip, which you guys seem to care about, and the winners were a team of students from Purdue University. Go Boilermakers!
