English term or phrase: silicon wafer
Ur fondkommentar:

Particularly negative outlook statements have come from the semiconductor companes as this industry is in the middle of a significant inventory adjustments. The whole supply chain has become a lot leaner as the companies that sell the finished product have very low manufacturing time. However, it takes about twelve weeks to process a silicon wafer and if end demand weakens during that time frame we will have over production as these wafers cannot be stopped.

Kommentar: Mina efterforskningar ger mig "silikonskiva". Det ger dock endast ett tiotal träffar på Google så jag skulle vilja höra om någon av er instämmer eller är av en annan uppfattning?

Mvh,
Caroline

Explanation:
Silicon är en klassisk false friend; betyder kisel
Kiselskiva är nog det vanligaste på svenska (finns även i länken hos föregående inlägg).
En stilfråga om man vill använda det eller Kiselwafer som är lite svengelskt.
