subject: Demand For Electronic Components In China Amounted To 110 Billion U.s. Dollars [print this page] Since this year, including chips, electronic components including capacitors in short supply, the situation of rising prices, many consumer electronics manufacturers by surprise, miserable. Held in Shenzhen from yesterday the 15th "International IC China Conference & Exhibition," understand the Chinese consumer electronics market with the continued growth and inadequate investment in the next five years, China's semiconductor industry will probably face chips and other electronic components the problem of insufficient production capacity even more.
According to the China Semiconductor Industry Association and China Customs data analysis, China's electronics industry in 2010, total operating income rose 10% to 1.06 trillion U.S. dollars in size, to become the world's largest electronics industry base. Meanwhile China's electronic consumer market this year will grow to 145.8 billion U.S. dollars. This will lead directly to the Chinese market demand for electronic components amounted to 110 billion U.S. dollars in size.
Global Sources Enterprise Alliance eMediaAsiaLimited president BrandonSmith that since, including portable medical electronics, green energy, LED backlighting and automotive electronics market has grown to become the new applications of electronic components. The industry demand for semiconductors and components are rapidly rising. Data show that the medical electronics industry in China the average annual growth rate of 15%, in green energy, the Chinese system of solar photovoltaic Ban output has accounted for 30% worldwide market share, and environmentally friendly Jieneng has become Chinese government and enterprises to actively implement Bentu trend.
On the other hand, BrandonSmith that China has become the world's largest automobile consumer market in 2010, China will produce more than 15 million cars; hybrid and electric cars will also further promote the rise of the semiconductor and components industry demand, as compared with conventional cars, electric cars will use more integrated circuits and components.
In this regard, the overall national science and technology major project expert and deputy head of Beijing University, Qinghua University and Professor, Dr. Wei Shaojun double that, in fact, China's existing chip production point of view, there should be no capacity planning integrated circuit industry issues, as including SMIC and other large chip makers now have a very low capacity utilization. Caused the current IC industry is mainly due to capacity constraints and market demand for chip manufacturers products does not match the result, specifically, high-volume production capacity and diversification of the contradiction between small quantities. He considered that as Chinese enterprises in the mainstream chip production to remain weak, if the Government's investment in the chip can not keep up with the industry cycle peak in the arrival of the next 5 years, China's IC design enterprises will face more serious capacity problems.
BrandonSmith is that with rising labor and land costs, product design will be the Chinese manufacturers in the global and local markets to maintain and enhance the competitiveness of an increasingly important key.
