According to market research firm IHS preliminary estimates , the global semiconductor market revenue growth rate in 2013 could reach nearly 5 %, mainly thanks to the brisk performance of the memory industry ─ ─ The global semiconductor market decline by 2.5% in 2012.IHS estimates that in 2013 global semiconductor sales to reach 3,179 billion U.S. dollars, compared with 3,029 one hundred million U.S. dollars in 2012 to grow by 4.9% ; among DRAM industry revenue annual growth rate of 35%, NAND flash memory industry revenue will grow 27.7 %, which is the main driving force to lift the overall semiconductor industry growth.But while China is the world's largest electronics manufacturing base, but no one memory manufacturers, Taiwan , Japan and Korea had to offer huge profits."Memory to become the savior of the semiconductor industry in 2013 ;" IHS analyst DaleFord said: "The stable prices and smart phones, tablet devices DRAM / NAND growing demand for making the memory industry revenue growth , if less dramatically . these two products , the entire memory industry will show zero growth this year, I'm afraid . "Strong demand for DRAM and NAND , the U.S. chip industry incentives Micron (Micron) revenue growth ; IHS predicts that the company will be the semiconductor industry revenue growth in the best performing companies in 2013 was estimated at 109.2 percent growth rate , so that the company 's revenue reached $ 14.2 billion ( the figure in 2012 was 6.8 billion U.S. dollars ) , ranking from 10th in 2012 , advancing to the fourth year . Since the completion of the merger and Micron Elpida (Elpida) in the year 2013, the global semiconductor market share of the company will be amplified by 2.2% last year to 4.5 %. In regional markets , the Asia-Pacific semiconductor market in 2013 growth rate of 8.9% , the growth performance of the most dazzling ; followed by the American market , the annual growth rate of 5.0%. The total of 150 IHS semiconductor manufacturers surveyed , 53 percent of industry revenue in 2013 will show a growth of 47% is showing signs of deterioration .
