Today, in 2016, we review the following China's semiconductor achieved impressive results in recent years, and a prediction on the future development of China's semiconductor:

Mainland IC industry output will grow by 15% in 2016

Benefit from the mainland economy continues to grow, and is given priority to with low order intelligent mobile phone mobile device shipments also grew in during this period, Chinese IC industry to grow from $21.03 billion in 2010, year after year to $57.97 billion, 2015, 2010 ~ 2015 annual compound growth rate of 19.1%. DIGITIME Research estimates, although the intelligent mobile phone unit growth slowing, coupled with the global economic outlook, uncertainty still high, but the IC domestic demand market in mainland China can still stable growth, combined with semiconductor industry policy support, driven by Chinese IC industry output value will reach $2016 in 66.64 billion, the annual growth of 15%.

During the 12th five-year plan, the global intelligent mobile phones, especially the middle and lower order grew in intelligent mobile phone shipments, IC design industry has become a leading Chinese IC industry output growth momentum, the most important value by $2010 in 5.66 billion to grow year after year to $21.28 billion, 2015, 2010 ~ 2015 annual compound growth rate of 30.3%, growth performance is far better than IC manufacturing and assembly industry.

Mainland from 2011 to 2015 in the top 10 IC design company total revenue annual compound growth rate of 30.1%, but the IC design industry output value proportion of running in four levels, only did not meet industrial concentration ascending trend, in addition to the mainland shows that small and medium-sized mainland IC design companies also have contributed to the IC design industry important growth momentum, IC design company is a rapidly increasing number of mainland, also to drive the output growth of the important reasons for the China IC design industry, DIGITIMES Research estimates, much starker choices-and graver consequences-in planning period, China IC design companies will have the opportunity to more than 1000.

In IC design industry can still maintain a strong growth momentum, IC manufacturing under the expectations of new capacity will continue to pay, DIGITIMES Research estimates that 2016 IC, IC manufacturing mainland IC industry output value proportion to 37.9%, 26% respectively, encapsulation testing continued to be squeezed, accounts for only 36.1% of the Chinese IC industry output value proportion, Chinese IC industry structure will be 40% in IC design, IC manufacturing and packaging test each 30% of policy goals.

Haisi with spreadtrum become the top 10 IC design companies

From mainland China IC design industry performance observed during the 12th five-year plan, benefiting from 15 to mainland China IC design industry in netcom during the 11th five-year plan and mobile communication technology in the right direction, layout makes including haisi, spreadtrum, RuiDi IC design industry can become low order beneficiaries of intelligent mobile phone shipments climbed quickly, revenue from rising rapidly during the 12th five-year plan.

With the mainland economy continues to grow, personal disposable income increase year by year, leading to the mainland IC domestic demand market is growing year by year, in mainland China IC design industry, improve the capacity system manufacturers intend to ascend, and special, tax cuts, including national important industrial policy support, such as government procurement case become mainland during the 12th five-year plan to promote growth of the important reasons for the IC design industry, make China IC design industry output value by $2010 in 5.66 billion to grow year after year to $21.28 billion, 2015, 2010 ~ 2015 annual compound growth rate of 30.3%. As China IC design industry production scale, production year growth is also slowing.

DIGITIMES Research forecasts, due to the mainland IC domestic demand market and low order smart phone shipments continued growth, and including the central government and local government industrial policy support, in 2016 China IC design industry output value up to $25.28 billion, annual growth rate will reach 18.8%.

Haisi and spreadtrum become the top 10 IC design companies

According to the IC Insights for science and technology, world's top ten IC design houses ranking and the overall sales, found that Qualcomm, Qualcomm Inc.)/CSR, mediatek sales both into recession, but Apple (Apple Inc.)/TSMC, Spreadtrum, Spreadtrum Communications, Inc.) but growth explosion! Especially China spreadtrum and haisi into the top ten, both heartening.

This year, according to the latest data, IC design houses of the world's total revenue is expected to decline 5% to $58.919 billion, most are from qualcomm/CSR total revenue contraction of 20%. IC Insights, points out that qualcomm/CSR revenues have plunged, apparently because Samsung (Samsung Electronics Co.) decided to adopt their own Exynos series processors, no longer to qualcomm pickup.

On the other hand, mediatek ranked third in the IC design industry, the revenue is expected to shrink 8% this year to $6.504 billion. Mediatek although erosion rivals qualcomm smoothly in this year's smart phone processor, share, but admitted to preempt the market next year will slow the speed of, cause qualcomm introduced new advanced products.

TSMC on IC design companies, in contrast, the supply of apple processor sales jumped 111% to $3.085 billion this year, the growth of the top 10 IC design houses. Spreadtrum and huawei, IC design ShangHaiSi semiconductor (HiSilicon Technologies) this year's sales also jumped 40% and 19% respectively, performance is very good.

To IC manufacturing capacity expansion

From mainland IC is observed during the 12th five-year plan, in addition to smic's continued expansion of 8 inch wafer with 12 inch wafer capacity, huahong NEC and grace semiconductor in October 2013, after the merger of huahong hongli also launched a new wave of capacity expansion plans, plus China LiWei electronics and xi 'an samsung semiconductor (China) also successively in 2012 and 2014, under the new capacity to join the mainland IC manufacturing output grew from $6.04 billion in 2010, year after year to $14.46 billion, 2015, 2010 ~ 2015 annual compound growth rate of 19.1%.

Smic in addition to 12 inches fabs will continue to expand the Shanghai, Beijing B1 factory and 8 inches in shenzhen factory production capacity, with the support of the Beijing municipal government and the big fund, smic B2 factory is located in Beijing the quantity will be by the end of 2015, 2015 pieces of 12 inch wafer expanding until the end of 2016 18000 pieces of 12 inch wafer. Huahong hongli capacity will also be by the end of 2015, 2015 8 inch wafer expanding to the end of 2016, 2016 8 inch wafer.

Intel (Intel) dalian factory has announced in October 2015 to invest $5.5 billion to the original mining production capacity of 65 metric process used to produce chipsets transformation into a 3 d NAND Flash production line, the capacity from 15000 12 inch wafer increased to 40000 pieces of 3 ~ 12 inch wafer, expected fourth quarter is expected to put into production in 2016.

Besides capacity expansion, smic LiWei electronics and China will also promote 45/40 nano and 28 metric distance shipments. Under the impetus of the capacity expansion and product portfolio to improve, DIGITIMES Research estimates, mainland IC manufacturing output will reach $2016 in 17.32 billion, annual growth rate of 19.8%.

Merger and acquisition and expansion, let testing industry grew by 8.2% in 2016

Benefit from the mainland economy continues to grow, and given priority to with low order smartphone shipments of the mobile device also grew in during this period, Chinese IC industry output growth year by year from 2010 $2010 to $57.97 billion, 2015, 2010 ~ 2015 annual compound growth rate of 19.1%. DIGITIME Research estimates, although the smartphone shipments growth slowing, coupled with the global economic outlook, uncertainty still high, but IC domestic demand market in mainland China can still stable growth, combined with semiconductor industry policy support, driven by Chinese IC industry output value will reach $2016 in 66.64 billion, the annual growth of 15%.

During the 12th five-year plan, the global smartphone, especially grew in low order smartphone shipments, IC design industry has become a leading Chinese IC industry output growth momentum, the most important value by $2010 in 5.66 billion to grow year after year to $21.28 billion, 2015, 2010 ~ 2015 annual compound growth rate of 30.3%, growth performance is far better than IC manufacturing and assembly industry.

Mainland from 2011 to 2015 in the top 10 IC design company total revenue annual compound growth rate of 30.1%, but the IC design industry output value proportion of running in four levels, only did not meet industrial concentration ascending trend, in addition to the mainland shows that small and medium-sized mainland IC design companies also have contributed to the IC design industry important growth momentum, IC design company is a rapidly increasing number of mainland, also to drive the output growth of the important reasons for the China IC design industry, DIGITIMES Research estimates, much starker choices-and graver consequences-in planning period, China IC design companies will have the opportunity to more than 1000.

In IC design industry can still maintain a strong growth momentum, IC manufacturing under the expectations of new capacity will continue to pay, DIGITIMES Research estimates that 2016 IC, IC manufacturing mainland IC industry output value proportion to 37.9%, 26% respectively, encapsulation testing continued to be squeezed, accounts for only 36.1% of the Chinese IC industry output value proportion, Chinese IC industry structure will be 40% in IC design, IC manufacturing and packaging test each 30% of policy goals.
