I came across a super interesting article from 1988, titled "Australia's new world-standard IC foundry". It profiled a leading-edge silicon fab built by an Australian electronics company I had never heard of: Amalgamated Wireless Australasia, or AWA. In the 20th century, AWA produced radios, televisions, and other electronics. They were once Australia's largest electronics company. And in the 1980s, they built one of the world's most advanced semiconductor fabs. Sadly, it was torn down for reasons I scarcely believe. In today’s video, we cover one of Australia's most iconic companies. Now forgotten.
