IDC: New Intel AMD Drives Semiconductor Sales Growth

The new chips launched by Intel and AMD can indeed boost the demand for computer semiconductors, but due to the instability of the current economic factors, it is still possible to suffer damages, IDC said in a research report.

The new chips launched by Intel and AMD can indeed boost the demand for computer semiconductors, but due to the instability of the current economic factors, it is still possible to suffer damages, IDC said in a research report.

IDC said that the driving force of the global semiconductor market is the new products recently launched by Intel and AMD, and it can also see the continuous commercial application of these chips. In addition, the application needs of mobile devices such as Microsoft Win7 operating system and smart phones are also Growing.

In a report released last Thursday, IDC pointed out that due to the uncertainty of the economic situation in the next few years, the performance in the emerging markets including the United States, Europe and China, Brazil, and India has also fallen into an uncertain situation. .

However, according to IDC's speculation, semiconductor revenue will grow by 5% in 2012, which is a decrease from the previous 9% growth in semiconductors expected in 2011. IDC also predicts that growth in 2011 will reach $303 billion. As the demand for semiconductors from mobile devices and network connectivity products grows, the growth rate of global profitability will be challenged, according to IDC analyst Mali Venkatesan.

IDC also warned in the report: “In the United States and Europe, due to the high unemployment rate and low consumption desire, the issue of credit rights is particularly evident. In China and Japan are also experiencing the adverse effects of high inflation, these factors are It may affect the growth of the semiconductor market, but in the long run, high-end applications are still favored, such as smart phones, tablets, notebooks, set-top boxes, LCD TVs, as well as wired networks, industrial automation and automotive infotainment for chips. Demand remains strong."

In summary, the new drivers from Intel and AMD can account for 40% of semiconductor sales. At the Consumer Electronics Show in January this year, the two companies released new chip architectures and integrated graphics functions into the CPU to increase chip performance while reducing energy and cooling costs.

When Intel released its second-quarter earnings report on July 20th, Intel again emphasized some of the information of its next-generation chip architecture SandyBridge processor. Otellini, president of Intel, said that since this year, 2/3 of Intel's chip sales have come from the Sandy Bridge architecture.

AMD will mainly promote their APU chip products. The chip is mainly used in netbooks, not only improving performance, but also lower energy consumption.
