What's the Fastest Growing Semiconductor MOS Logic Market? (Hint: It’s Not Microprocessors)Semico Blog - Michell PruntyFeb. 25, 2011 |
It should come as no surprise that semiconductor foundry manufacturers are booming. The semiconductor industry has been transformed. But it’s not just fabless versus IDM (Integrated Device Manufacturer). Revenue has shifted from Embedded MPUs, MCUs, DSPs and Standard Cell ASICs to Special Purpose Logic chips. Integration has taken over MOS Logic sales, creating a huge increase in the sales of fully integrated semiconductors. Most of these chips are being manufactured by foundries.
