International marketing agency can gu (Gartner) released today wafer foundry market ranking last year, TSMC still comfortably leading, market share from 53.8% the year before, had risen to 54.3%; Umc is Romania DE (Global Foundries) beyond, relegated to the third, the market share to 9.3%.

16 this year because the TSMC nanometers peatlands, world market share of company of confidence will be up early, estimates that this year the city of rate will be above 55%, widening gap and other company.

Gartner statistics, last year the semiconductor wafer foundry market continues to grow, but growth has eased, the year increased by 4.4%, worth $48.8 billion, end for three consecutive years of double-digit growth.

Gartner said the terminal market growth slowed sharply last year, including smartphones, tablets and PC market is facing headwinds, the semiconductor fabs client order turned conservative attitude; Keep on fixed inventory by the end of the year, because industry overall wafer foundry growth have also been affected.

According to the output ranking, TSMC last year are still steady whole chip foundry first throne, revenue of $26.566 billion, increased 5.5%, better than average, the market share of 54.3%.

The second by the lattice Romania scores, the reason is, after acquisition of IBM wafer business reaching $4.67 billion in revenue, increased 6.2%, 9.6% market share; Umc, from 2014 second is squeezed into the third, revenue of $4.56 billion, a 1.3% cut in, market share of 9.3%.

Is followed by samsung, smic, force, TowerJazz, Fujitsu, world with huahong semiconductor crystal; Top ten wafer foundry revenue of $44.814 billion, accounted for 91.7% of the revenue growth of 5.6% from the previous year.
