MLCCs: The “Rice of Electronics” Becomes a Power Bottleneck in the AI Era When the market talks about AI servers, the focus usually goes to GPUs, HBM, CoWoS, PCBs, CCLs, optical modules, and liquid cooling. But as AI systems evolve from single servers into rack-scale, and eventually data-center-scale architectures, another long-overlooked component is moving back to the center of the industry’s attention: MLCCs, or multilayer ceramic capacitors. open.substack.com/pub/tspase…

Ref to the weblink facebook.com/photo/?fbid=144… Satirically & sarcastically speaking, as an extremely unpopular truth that “Human Rights & civil rights are the 'RIGHT OF OPPORTUNITY under accessibility only for the targeted fortunate person/groups/nations who have the affordability to enjoy that opportunity rather than a basic right for all segments of population in any societies. Why? Logically, human right & civil right are not proven, standardized quality products &service, same as "fulfilling the basic needs of any person ". Solution may be a hallucinated illusion of wealth distribution in any societies. Why? answer is the mandatory condition of fair justice with practice of human right & civil right implementations culture is only visible in any nation where more than 80% of the total population belongs to the middle class, adjustable 10% -15% lower middle class, 5% -10% poor as marginal income people . so national strategies must be designed to be rolled out sustainable reasonable peaceful environment / climate creation of investment principle involved, accountable & legally liable infrastructure for sustainable economic growth must be ensured of scalable modeled minimum threshold /benchmark of reasonable statistically validated influence-free justice system . Otherwise , all efforts to establish human right & civil rights will be "quarantined in a raising voice only , satirically speaking yelling -shouting/ traditional protest with shouting slogans as a sign of expressing grievances by some groups with a statement as condemnation only ( satire only ).sometimes prospective candidate as victims may be faced " livelihood related issues , life threat motivated sometimes ransom collection, to be killed under muscle power -fake court case , putting persons in jail without definite allegations rather than political & Misinterpreted , misinformed misguide-able religious ideology -other harmful ideological toxic brain washed culture motivated revenge vs. higher dose counter revenge practice culture only ( example in Bangladesh by STATE SPONSORED MOB TERRORISM CULTURE ) . UNTIL INFLUENCE FREE STATISTICALLY VALIDATED AUTHENTICATED multilayer licensed & accountable , legally liable,& cross-checkable evidence collection system ( only 1% of variations among all source involved data mainly multi-layers intelligence information sharing system) incorporated almost influence-free justice system if any globally , human right & civil right must be hallucinated illusion only . But THE OPERATIONAL LIMIT OF human rights & civil rights vs. CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE must be modeled with objective of " PEACEFUL societies creation globally under accountable & legally liable democratic system rather than " exceeding limit of model of dictatorship -authoritarian , imperialism , kingship by tyranny concept based on " hierarchy of Maslow’s pyramid principle youtube.com/watch?v=9DJQuWEQ… & IBN Chaldean’s up down of civilization theory youtube.com/watch?v=FGNHxjC8… .so PEAK REGION OF MASLOW'S PYRAMID must be brought to the microscope of " intensity of possessing power vs. tyranny ( Torture intensity under abuse of power. SO even ALLAH /GOD /CREATOR CITED IN THE one of the HOLY BOOKs such as QURAN among all ISLAMIC BOOKs. as per sure number 50 Ayat 45 youtu.be/um7O7iuvXzY?t=535 ,there is alert to the prophet about TYRANNY such AS there is no room for muscle power applied motivated " to practice religious faith to any person against his/her intention . Because Allah h /god HIMSLEF AWARE OF THE ACTIVITIES OF ANY PERSONS/GROUPS /NATIONS / COMMUNITY by their code of code in any real time domain. For misdeeds targeted persons would punished by hell fire after death by the judgments of GOD rather than, No human being has right to punish anybody whether he/she practice faith or not ? ) . So, tyranny modeling must be inevitable. Why? Answer is “any proven offender may claim that, his/her committing offence is also a legal right & human right must convert any societies into CIVIL WAR LIKE climate . . . so sometimes short term offensive war to subdue criminals can never be denied to create climate to practice democracy but it should never be allowed to be done under severe blood shed /killing with loss of property rather than " targeted way protest like " NEPAL may be role model strategies of REGIME change rather than BANGLADESH where there were " many evil /satanic code of conduct by which REGIME change can never establish minimum threshold of all political parties participation must be human right & civil right based democracy under common sensereceived this communication in error,

The #UnitedStates and #Israel maintain dominance and military power projection in the Middle East region. Their influence will prevail for a long time. For its part, #Iran proved to have a strong axis of military resistance. Its short and medium-range ballistic missile capabilities managed to sustain its survival during the confrontations; however, the United States and Israel managed to prevail and halt Iran's nuclear plans, severely weakening its military air capacity, while its conventional maritime power was completely destroyed. We must recognize that the conflict between these three nations heavily shaped the strategies of the military technology world, utilizing technologies that never before seen in the history of warfare. Weapons enhanced with artificial intelligence were deployed, a field where Israel and the United States innovated through the development of AI software to process tactical data in real-time and automatically target threats. Israel- Added to this are defensive capabilities featuring interception technologies like the Arrow 2 and Arrow 3 systems, designed to destroy threats outside the atmosphere, including the Iron Dome system, consolidating the most efficient, advanced, and combat-proven multilayer missile defense system in the world. This conflict officially rewrote the manuals of global defense strategy, proving that the modern era of warfare is defined by technological attrition, cyber warfare, and computer algorithms.

Claude Opus 4.7 just went head-to-head with Gemini 3.1 Pro, GPT-5.4, and Kimi K2.6 on one simple prompt: "Generate a hamburger." All four models received the exact same request for a clean standalone image. Results speak for themselves: • Claude Opus 4.7 delivered a solid classic multilayer burger on a plate. • Gemini 3.1 Pro produced a clean stacked version with nice toppings. • GPT-5.4 gave a tiny incomplete burger. • Kimi K2.6 dropped a full, fresh-looking burger with perfect layers. Cost & token usage: Claude Opus 4.7 — $0.25 (~420 tokens) Gemini 3.1 Pro — $0.22 (~380 tokens) GPT-5.4 — $0.14 (~260 tokens) Kimi K2.6 — $0.02 (~65 tokens) The wild part? The cheapest model delivered one of the best results, while the most expensive models were only marginally better. Price and token burn mean nothing if the model doesn't understand the task.

Use the uploaded R3ORDR artwork as the ONLY source of identity, shapes, colors, textures, symbols and composition. The goal is not to place the artwork on top of a motherboard. The goal is to completely reconstruct the original artwork as if it had naturally evolved into a real, highly engineered motherboard. Everything visible in the original image must become a physical electronic element. No stickers. No printed images. No flat collage. No overlays. No ordinary illustration. No newly invented symbols. No random cyberpunk details unrelated to the source image. CORE RULE Every color, fragment, shape, block, line, symbol, texture and component from the original artwork must be translated into an equivalent motherboard component. The final image should still be recognizable as the original R3ORDR piece when viewed from a distance. At close inspection, everything must reveal itself to be genuine motherboard architecture. RECONSTRUCTION METHOD Mentally disassemble the source image into: color fields geometric fragments symbols circles squares checkerboards bars text pieces paint strokes gradients voids floating elements collage fragments noise textures edge shapes silhouette masses Then rebuild those elements as: copper traces multilayer PCB pathways capacitors ceramic capacitors inductors chokes MOSFETs IC packages resistors crystal oscillators sockets connectors PCIe slots RAM slots heatsinks VRM arrays solder pads vias test points power stages surface mounted components ribbon connectors jumper pins LED indicators chipsets mounting holes shielding plates TRANSLATION RULES Black masses Become: heatsinks thermal armor graphite shielding matte PCB regions Colored rectangles and blocks Become: memory chips VRM modules controller ICs socket covers daughterboards Preserve their exact proportions and positions. Thin lines and curves Become: copper traces multilayer PCB routing signal pathways Maintain their flow and rhythm. Circular shapes Become: capacitors coils crystal oscillators mounting holes Checkerboards Become: BGA contact grids pin matrices solder ball arrays Textures Become: etched PCB patterns laser markings silkscreen labels copper engraving Symbols Become: manufacturer markings chipset logos serial codes QR patterns debugging indicators Derived only from the original symbols. Color areas Must become: Colored PCB regions and anodized heatsinks. Keep the original palette. Do not replace colors with generic black motherboards. Eyes Become: CPU sockets chipset dies processor packages Mouth Become: PCIe slots connector assemblies stacked ports Hair Become: Dense signal routing networks and layered copper channels. Facial planes Become: Separate PCB layers, shielding plates and heatsinks. Clothing Become: Large mechanical structures composed of: expansion slots daughterboards cooling fins connector banks power delivery systems COMPONENT DENSITY The image must be extremely dense. Thousands of real electronic details. No empty spaces. Every millimeter contains genuine motherboard structures. MATERIALS Realistic: FR4 PCB material copper traces brushed aluminum ceramic surfaces matte black plastics gold-plated contacts solder joints thermal pads anodized metal LIGHTING High-end product photography. Macro realism. Studio lighting. Subtle reflections. Extreme sharpness. Premium collectible engineering aesthetic. ABSOLUTE RULE Nothing from the original artwork may remain flat. Everything must be physically rebuilt from motherboard architecture. The final result should feel as though the original R3ORDR artwork was never a painting at all, but an impossible motherboard discovered from another civilization.

Solid-state battery cell hits 465 Wh/kg, passes extreme safety tests | Aman Tripathi, Interesting Engineering The company is prioritizing the aerospace, maritime, transport, and defense sectors for its initial battery cell rollouts. European battery startup SOLiTHOR has produced its first 10 Ah demonstration cell, marking an increase in the physical scale of its solid-state lithium battery technology. The company intends for this larger format to show that its laboratory chemistry can transition into commercial production for industries requiring specialized power sources. Alongside the production of the larger cell, the company reported stack-level energy densities of 465 Wh/kg and 1400 Wh/L within a pouch design. Engineers reached these figures by introducing a high-loading cathode with an areal capacity of 8mAh/cm2 into the company’s proprietary Solid Composite Electrolyte. Unlike traditional lithium-ion systems or certain semi-solid designs, this chemistry uses a sol-gel process that functions without requiring any liquid electrolyte injections during assembly. Laboratory evaluations indicate specific performance characteristics under varied operational environments. When testing multilayer pouch cells at a temperature of 25°C, the cells sustained continuous discharge rates reaching 5C without experiencing major drops in capacity. Performance limits and safety metrics The same units tolerated short 30-second power pulses up to 10C when held at a 50% state of charge. This specific energy discharge behavior is relevant for machinery that requires brief, intense energy outputs, such as unmanned aerial vehicles during departure and descent sequences. “SOLiTHOR has developed a chemistry that allows the industry to rethink the manufacturing of solid-state battery cells,” said Dr. Fanny Bardé, Co-Founder and Chief Technology Officer at SOLiTHOR. Long-term stability tests were conducted on smaller 1 Ah multilayer pouch cells. These units completed more than 500 full discharge cycles while maintaining over 80% of their original storage capacity, which provides an initial benchmark for the operational lifespan of the chemistry. During standardized safety protocols, the fully charged multilayer cells were subjected to intentional overcharging and direct nail penetration. Production economics and industry targets “In safety assessments, SOLiTHOR’s technology successfully passed the overcharge and nail penetration tests on a 100% charge multilayer pouch cell with no smoke, leakage, thermal runaway, or fire,” highlighted the company in a press release. “These technical achievements not only prove that the chemistry works, but that it delivers the combination of energy density, power performance, and cycle life required for practical applications,” added Bardé. The manufacturing framework for the new chemistry relies on roll-to-roll processing systems already common in the battery sector. By removing the liquid filling stage entirely and accelerating the subsequent chemical formation and aging protocols, the production timeline for these steps is shortened by two-thirds. Because these specific phases normally represent one-quarter of total cell manufacturing expenditures, their reduction alters the overall processing economics. Facility adaptation for market deployment “Existing Li-ion facilities can be upgraded for solid-state production with no new equipment, limited switching costs, and reduced operational costs,” noted the press release. The company is targeting initial applications for its battery cells within the aerospace, maritime, transport, and defense sectors. “With this major technical update, we are demonstrating that our technology can be realistically produced, satisfying the demands of high-performance and high-value applications within aerospace, dual-use, and mobility,” concluded Rodrigo P. Navarro, CEO at SOLiTHOR. interestingengineering.com/e…

Am making a Snugstone multilayer acrylic block so it imitates how it looks like in the anime :^) it’ll also be packed ina brown sachet hehe

Many outdoor malls have had multilayer surveillance systems for years. Multiple layers of built-in digital security videos, microphones built into objects, even some can detect other sensory data. Unveiled in security magazines and literature years ago, I posted about it years ago after I went to one such mall in Virginia and found the system there. I would say many theme parks use the same systems. You wouldn’t know without seeing the documentation first.

yeah, i don't play that and it's not multilayer T_T

Samsung Electro-Mechanics Expands Beyond MLCCs into Silicon Capacitor Business Samsung Electro-Mechanics is in discussions with multiple global Big Tech companies to supply silicon capacitors (Si-Cap) for AI servers. The company is rapidly emerging as a major supplier alongside Japan's Murata and Taiwan's TSMC. On the 11th, Samsung Electro-Mechanics held a technology seminar at the Taepyeongno Building in Jung-gu, Seoul, where it shared its silicon capacitor technology and commercialization roadmap. Kim Won-gi, head of Samsung Electro-Mechanics' Si-Cap Development Group, said, "Global Big Tech companies whose names you would immediately recognize are reviewing the adoption of silicon capacitors," adding, "Because the market is formed around a small number of players, Samsung Electro-Mechanics is also aggressively pursuing sales activities." The silicon capacitor market is led by Japan's Murata and Taiwan's TSMC. Barriers to entry are high because the business requires both semiconductor wafer process and passive component capabilities, and the number of suppliers is limited. Samsung Electro-Mechanics President Chang Duck-hyun is cultivating silicon capacitors as a core growth business in the company's push into the AI market. The company made its full-scale entry into the market last year as it began supplying customers. It supplied products for the AI accelerators of Marvell—a leader in custom networking chips (ASICs)—and for the package of Samsung Electronics' mobile application processor (AP), the Exynos 2600, among others. More recently, it secured a supply contract worth 1.5 trillion won from a global Big Tech company—the largest single contract in Samsung Electro-Mechanics' history. The related revenue is scheduled to be reflected in earnings starting in 2027. Samsung Electro-Mechanics presented a "total solution" strategy—bundling its silicon capacitor, multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC), and package substrate businesses—as a differentiating factor. Silicon capacitors are mounted inside or adjacent to the package substrate. By supplying both products together, Samsung Electro-Mechanics can design and optimize the package and components simultaneously. Samsung Electro-Mechanics is the only company that operates both passive component and package substrate businesses. Rather than building large-scale production facilities, the company has chosen a design-centric strategy. It employs a fabless model, outsourcing wafer production to foundries and componentization to specialized semiconductor back-end (OSAT) firms, while Samsung Electro-Mechanics handles product design, testing, and quality verification. The company has a silicon capacitor design and development organization at its Central Research Institute in Suwon. Samsung Electro-Mechanics' silicon capacitors are manufactured on a 300-millimeter (mm) wafer basis. A silicon capacitor is a passive component made from a silicon wafer. It temporarily stores electricity and supplies it when needed, keeping the voltage inside the semiconductor package stable. Whereas conventional MLCCs secure capacitance by stacking multiple layers of ceramic, silicon capacitors bore microscopic holes into a wafer and place electrodes inside them. This allows the thickness to be reduced to 100 micrometers (㎛) or less. Samsung Electro-Mechanics drew its business idea from DRAM technology. DRAM uses a capacitor inside each cell to store data. Samsung Electro-Mechanics developed the silicon capacitor by taking just the capacitor portion of this structure and advancing it into a separate component. The fine-process technology it accumulated while shrinking DRAM circuit linewidths was transferred directly into silicon capacitor development. The more microscopic holes formed in the wafer, the greater the capacitance a silicon capacitor can achieve. There are differences in silicon capacitor technology between competitors. Samsung Electro-Mechanics utilizes a DRAM-based structure, while TSMC is known to use a logic-process-based trench structure. Samsung Electro-Mechanics mass-produces its products on a 300mm wafer basis, the type primarily used for memory semiconductors. Samsung Electro-Mechanics projected that the silicon capacitor market will grow at an average annual rate of more than 18%. Its scope of application is expanding from a mobile focus into AI servers, automotive electronics, aerospace, and optical communications. AI servers in particular are emerging as the largest source of demand, as power density increases and package integration intensify simultaneously. Kim said, "The higher semiconductor performance becomes, the more important power stabilization becomes," adding, "Silicon capacitors will see their range of application continuously expand in the AI server and next-generation high-performance semiconductor markets."
