The Trump administration is shifting toward Section 301 as the foundation for a new long-term tariff framework. The Office of the United States Trade Representative (USTR) has proposed additional tariffs ranging from 10% to 12.5% on 60 economies, covering most goods imported into the United States, while maintaining exemptions for semiconductors, energy products, medical goods, and critical minerals. This article summarizes the latest developments regarding the proposed Section 301 tariffs, the scope of exempt products, and the potential implications for Taiwan, China, Vietnam, Japan, and global supply chains. It also examines the future direction of Trump's tariff policy and the challenges businesses may face.

As Moore’s Law approaches its physical limits, the bottleneck in chip scaling is no longer confined to transistors—it increasingly lies in power delivery. Traditional front-side power delivery networks (FSPDN) ultimately constraining performance and power efficiency.To sustain progress in advanced process nodes, TSMC, Intel, and Samsung have each moved forward with backside power delivery network (BSPDN) technologies. This article analyzes the fundamentals of backside power delivery, introduces TSMC’s Super Power Rail (SPR), and compares it with Intel’s PowerVia and Samsung’s BSPDN solutions. It further explores two critical steps in implementing backside power delivery—wafer thinning and reclaimed wafers—and examines how these technological shifts could reshape the market and supply chain.
