In the end-usage segment, data processing holds the largest share in the market. It includes the chips that are used in servers, computers, scanners, and other similar hardware. The growth in this sector is expected to slow down in the coming future as no breakthrough innovation is expected anytime soon. The semiconductors used for data processing are largely manufactured by INTEL Corporation. The automotive industry is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period. This trend is due to consumer’s growing demand for electric or hybrid cars and enhanced safety applications. With more and more electronic equipment plugged into vehicles, almost all applications such as voltage control, direct current, and battery management are performed by the semiconductor.

With the increased adoption of Semiconductor, newer challenges have been introduced in the market. Cyclic nature of semiconductor industry, varying foreign exchange rates, changing consumption patterns for semiconductor in various regions, and the heavy costs involved are some of the major issues that are profoundly pulling back the Semiconductor market.

The global Semiconductor market has been segmented based on the end user. They are further segmented as follows:

By End Use:

  • Data processing
  • Communications
  • Consumer electronics
  • Industrial devices
  • Automotive
  • Military & civil aerospace
  • Other end use

On the basis of geography, global Semiconductor market has been segmented in five major geographies;

  • Asia Pacific
  • Europe
  • United States
  • Middle East
  • Rest of world

In 2016, Asia Pacific dominated the overall Semiconductor market. Following a few years of moderate growth, the Asia-Pacific Semiconductor market grew rapidly in 2015. In the Asia-Pacific region, the semiconductor market is heavily concentrated in China, Taiwan, South Korea and Japan. China is expected to remain the leading semiconductor market regionally as well as globally. The high demand for semiconductor from the region is mainly driven by the presence of leading semiconductor companies such as TSMC, Samsung, and SMIC. Moreover, major chip vendors in the region are investing in infrastructure development such as the construction of new fabs to increase throughput. For instance, SMIC will be increasing the throughput for its fab in China by building a new 450-mm fab facility in Beijing. On the other hand, the market in the Middle Eastern region is expected to grow at the fastest rate over the forecast period. It is mainly driven by the increasing demand for consumer electronics and the integration of semiconductor into several devices across sectors like automotive, industrial, communications, military, and others.

Global Semiconductor market is segmented on the basis of its end use. This segment includes: Data processing, Communications, Consumer electronics, Industrial devices, Automotive, Military & civil aerospace & other end use.

The major companies operating in the global Semiconductor market are;

  • Intel Corporation
  • Samsung
  • SK Hynix
  • Micron
  • Qualcomm
  • And others

Company profiles of the prominent market players are discussed in detail. Most of the companies are looking for strategies such as merger & acquisition, partnership, contracts, agreements, and new product launch, in order to gain a competitive edge over other companies. In October 2017, ON Semiconductor Corporation opened its new product development center in the Slovakian capital of Bratislava. In April 2017, SK Hynix Inc. introduced the 2Znm 8 GB (Gigabit) GDDR6 (Graphics DDR6) DRAM.

Key findings of the global Semiconductor market:

  • The Asia Pacific market is the most promising marketplace. It also accounted for the largest revenue share of the overall global market in 2016. Over 70% of the advanced fabrication plants are located in Asia.
  • Top markets for Semiconductor and semiconductor manufacturing equipment are China, the European Union, Taiwan, Japan, South Korea, United States and Singapore.
  • Intel and Qualcomm were the largest players in the US semiconductor space.
  • South Korea overtook Japan to become the second largest semiconductor producer in the world. Also, with a rapid growth in the past two years, Taiwan is leading in the semiconductor manufacturing area. China remains the largest consumer for Semiconductor.
  • The semiconductor industry is strongly leveraged to this data growth paradigm. An increase in semiconductor R&D spending to make the advanced technology nodes commercially viable will drive the sales globally.
