Indigeniously developed silicon chip technology |
Data Security is the paramount concern in the World today, and India cannot remain secure in terms of data, unless it manufactures its own chips. Observing this on wednesday Secretary, Department of Telecommunications, Aruna Sundararajan unveiled India`s first Indigenous Semiconductor Chips by Bengaluru based semiconductor company "SIGNALCHIP" for 4G/LTE and 5G NR MODEMs in New Delhi. Terming the launch of the Chip as tremendously significant, Mrs. Sundararajan said that India is just breaking into the elite club of the world and this will have huge implications for India`s data security and data sovereignty, besides the positive economic implications. She informed that at present only 8 companies and a few countries can design and build semiconductor chips and launch of Indigenous Chip is in a real sense Make in India for the World. She said, the pioneering work will lead to a whole new architecture of tower building mainly in the light of emission complaints and growing environmental concerns. Sundararajan said that when US and China are battling it out for the core ICT technology, India cannot lag behind. She said, even the high powered Committee formed by the Government of India and headed by Stanford University professor A.J. Paulrajto outline a road map for 5G telecom services has suggested breaking into the IPRs of 5G.
