Moore's Law of Economy: Former TSMC exec warns semiconductor talent gap could widen 15-fold
Burn-Jeng Lin, one of TSMC's six R&D pioneers and current dean of National Tsing Hua University's College of Semiconductor Research, introduced the concept of a "Moore's Law of Economy" on December 16, 2025. He emphasized that innovation can still overcome the physical limits of chip size reduction, but warned that global semiconductor talent shortages may expand 15-fold as countries race to build complete supply chains.
Has Moore's Law reached its limit, thus affecting the development of TSMC's advanced manufacturing processes? Lin Benjian, one of TSMC's six R&D pioneers and current dean of the Institute of Semiconductors at National Tsing Hua University, proposed a new "economic Moore's Law," stating that factors such as cost and economic efficiency should be comprehensively considered in order to allow technology to continue to advance.
