LONDON – Both 2011 and 2012 will be growth years for the global semiconductor industry before a potential downturn in 2013, according to analysts Bill McClean of IC Insights and Malcolm Penn of Future Horizons Ltd.
The two analysts, speaking at the ISS Europe conference held in Grenoble, France, this week, took similar positions and ascribed the two year boom to a return to normal unit demand allied to flat-to-increasing average selling prices (ASPs) for chips.
