Abstract
The SEMI World Fab Forecast provides high level summaries, charts, and graphs; in-depth analyses of capital expenditure, capacity, technology and products, down to the detail of each fab; and forecasts for the next 18 months.
The database includes over 1,000 records of front-end fabs and foundries such as TSMC, UMC, Chartered Semiconductor, SMIC, Samsung, Intel, AMD, Toshiba, Micron Hynix, Powerchip, Texas Instruments, Renesas, Inotera, Elpida, STMicro, Fujitsu, NEC Electronics, ProMOS, Nanya, Matsushita, NXP, Winbond, IBM Micro, Sharp, Freescale, Infineon, Spansion, Magna Chip, X-Fab, and more.....
Benefits
These tools are invaluable for understanding the trends of the fabs, and learning more about capex for construction projects, fab equipping, technology level, and products.
With the World Fab Forecast report, you can conduct more efficient market research, identify target customers, and analyze quarterly fab trends more easily.
Methodology
World Fab Forecast is compiled from publicly available information, including capital spending plans, announced fab plans and ream schedules. SEMI verifies this information by making up to 50 inquiries a week and periodic visits to semiconductor companies.
