IHS：全球存儲芯片制造商率先復(fù)蘇 2013年收入增5%

元器件交易網(wǎng)訊4月24日消息，據(jù)外媒報道，研究公司IHSiSuppli報告稱，全球半導(dǎo)體行業(yè)存儲芯片制造商收入率先復(fù)蘇，2013年增長5%。

IHSiSuppli公司昨日發(fā)布了銷量排名前25的全球半導(dǎo)體供應(yīng)商年度收入報告，題為“2013年無線DRAM和NAND推動全球半導(dǎo)體增長”。

IHS稱，存儲芯片IC制造商美光和SK海力士去年經(jīng)歷蓬勃發(fā)展。然而，專注于為移動設(shè)備提供芯片的公司高通、聯(lián)發(fā)科和其它半導(dǎo)體公司銷量見長。

整體上，全球半導(dǎo)體行業(yè)去年的收入為3181億美元，比2012年的3031億美元增長了5%。

IHS技術(shù)副總裁戴爾福特稱，“2013年內(nèi)存IC的增長是半導(dǎo)體行業(yè)主要推動力。“在主要內(nèi)存部門中DRAM顯示最強的增長力，收入飆升32.5%。因為供應(yīng)商能夠?qū)崿F(xiàn)供需平衡，價格有利可圖。NAND閃存也以24.2%的速度強勁增長，這是由于智能手機和平板電腦的內(nèi)存需求繼續(xù)上升。”

英特爾以474億美元的銷售額再次成為世界上第一大半導(dǎo)體公司，盡管其x86下跌近1%。英特爾2013年以14.8%的份額的領(lǐng)先于半導(dǎo)體市場，緊隨其后的是三星10.8%，半導(dǎo)體業(yè)務(wù)銷售額為338億美元，較2012年增長8.2%。

排名前九的半導(dǎo)體公司去年的市場份額僅占50%以上。

正如英特爾和三星舉行自己的2012個職位在市場份額方面,高通也保持在第三點在全球半導(dǎo)體公司。移動設(shè)備和其他設(shè)備的應(yīng)用程序處理器和通信芯片的供應(yīng)商收入從2012年的132億美元增長30.6%達到172億美元。

聯(lián)發(fā)科增長比例更大。從2012年的排名18位調(diào)至14位。2013年收入同比增加36.1%到45.7億美元。福特指出，令人印象最深刻的是由內(nèi)存供應(yīng)商帶動的增長。

美光，去年一躍成為全球第四大半導(dǎo)體公司，收入從2012年的68億美元增至141億美元，增漲了108.5%，部分原因是它收購了爾必達。

SK海力士僅此于美光，排名第五。其收入從2012年的90億美元增長至128億美元，增幅達42.8%。

另有一些著名的半導(dǎo)體公司2013年有所下降。AMD仍保持12位，但收入降2.8%，索尼半導(dǎo)體收入降了27%。

Makers of memory chips spearheaded a resurgence in worldwide semiconductor revenue, which rose 5 percent year-over-year in 2013, according to IHS.

The research firm, formerly IHS iSuppli, on Wednesday released its annual semiconductor revenue report tracking sales for the top 25 global semiconductor suppliers, titled "DRAM and NAND in Wireless Propel Global Semiconductor Growth in 2013."

Makers of memory integrated circuits (ICs) like Micron and SK Hynix enjoyed booming years in 2013, according to IHS, while Qualcomm, MediaTek, and other semiconductor firms focused on supplying chips for mobile devices also saw impressive sales growth.

As a whole, the global semiconductor industry had revenues of $318.1 billion last year, up 5 percent from $303.1 billion in 2012.

"Memory ICs were the key drivers of growth in the semiconductor industry in 2013," Dale Ford, vice president at IHS Technology, said in a statement. "Dynamic random access memory (DRAM) showed the strongest expansion among major memory segments, with revenue surging by 32.5 percent as suppliers were able to achieve a balance between supply and demand that yielded lucrative pricing for parts. NAND flash also posted a strong year—at 24.2 percent growth—as demand for the memory from smartphones and tablets continued to rise."

Intel again came in as the No. 1 semiconductor company in the world with $47.4 billion in sales for 2013, though that was down nearly 1 percent from the $47.4 billion the x86 giant reported the previous year. Intel's leading share of the 2013 semiconductor market was 14.8 percent, followed by Samsung's 10.8 percent after its semiconductor businesses posted sales of $33.8 billion, up 8.2 percent from 2012.

Together, the top nine semiconductor firms in the world accounted for just more than 50 percent of the total market last year, , according to IHS.

Just as Intel and Samsung held on to their 2012 positions in terms of market share, so did Qualcomm remain in the third spot among global semiconductor companies. The supplier of application processors and communications chips for mobile devices and other equipment grew its revenue to $17.2 billion, up a healthy 30.6 percent from $13.2 billion in 2012.

MediaTek, another supplier of mobile chipsets, enjoyed an even bigger sales bump in terms of percentage growth. The Taiwanese firm went from being the 18th largest semiconductor firm in 2012 to 14th in the world, on the strength of increasing its revenue 36.1 percent year-over-year to $4.57 billion in 2013.

As Ford noted, some of the most impressive gains in 2013 were made by memory suppliers.

Micron, for example, became the 4th largest semiconductor company last year after finishing 10th in 2012. Part of Micron's big year-over-year revenue increase—up from 2012's $6.8 billion to $14.1 billion—was the result of the company's acquisition of Elpida Memory, but a 108.5 percent revenue rise was impressive no matter how it was achieved.[!--empirenews.page--]

SK Hynix finished the year just behind Micron in the No. 5 spot after watching its own sales grow 42.8 percent from $9.0 billion in 2012 to $12.8 billion last year, IHS reported.

Some other notable names in the semiconductor industry took a tumble in 2013. Advanced Micro Devices retained its 12th-place spot in the market but saw sales decrease 2.8 percent compared with 2012, while Sony's semiconductor revenue fell 27.0 percent after the Japanese consumer electronics giant.
