The 2025-2030 World Outlook for Semiconductors

The 2025-2030 World Outlook for Semiconductors

This study covers the world outlook for semiconductors across more than 190 countries. For each year reported, estimates are given for the latent demand, or potential industry earnings (P.I.E.), for the country in question (in millions of U.S. dollars), the percent share the country is of the region, and of the globe. These comparative benchmarks allow the reader to quickly gauge a country vis-à-vis others. Using econometric models which project fundamental economic dynamics within each country and across countries, latent demand estimates are created. This report does not discuss the specific players in the market serving the latent demand, nor specific details at the product level. The study also does not consider short-term cyclicalities that might affect realized sales. The study, therefore, is strategic in nature, taking an aggregate and long-run view, irrespective of the players or products involved.

In this report we define the sales of semiconductors as including all commonly understood products falling within this broad category, irrespective of product packaging, formulation, size, or form. Companies participating in this industry include Advanced Micro Devices, Air Products & Chemicals, Albemarle Corporation, AMD, Amkor Technology, Analog Devices, Apple, Applied Materials, Ashland, Inc., BASF, Bharat Electronics, Bourns, Bright Led Electronics, Broadcom, Cabot Microelectronics, Carlo Gavazzi Holding, CML Technologies GmbH & Company, Cree, Cypress Semiconductor Corporation, Digi International, Diodes, DowDuPont, Efficient Power Conversion, ELAN Microelectronics, eMagin, Fujifilm, Fujitsu, GaN Systems, GCT Semiconductor, Global Semiconductor Alliance (GSA) had named NVIDIA Corporation, Hitachi, Honeywell International, Inc., Infineon, Intel, IPG Photonics, JSM, Kingston Technology Company, KMG Chemicals, Lattice Semiconductor, Linde Group, Linear Technology, Lite-on Semiconductor, Maxim Integrated Products, MediaTek, Melexis, Microchip Technology, Micron, Microsemi Corporation, MOSPEC Semiconductor, N X P Semiconductors, NXP, Oki Electric Industry Company, OmniVision Technologies, Inc. (OVT), ON Semiconductor Corporation, Qorvo, Qualcomm, Renesas, Robert Bosch GmbH, ROHM Company, Samsung, Seiko Epson Corporation, Semtech, SK Hynix, Sony, STMicroelectronics, Taiwan Semiconductors Manufacturing Company, Texas Instruments, TI, TOREX Semiconductor, Toshiba, Transphorm, Vishay Intertechnology, Western Digital, and Wolfspeed. In addition to the sources indicated, additional information available to the public via news and/or press releases published by players in the industry was considered in defining and calibrating this category. All figures are in a common currency (U.S. dollars, millions) and are not adjusted for inflation (i.e., they are current values). Exchange rates used to convert to U.S. dollars are averages for the year in question. Future exchange rates are assumed to be constant in the future at the current level (the average of the year of this publication's release in 2024).
