Taiwan Semiconductor and United Microelectronics Corp said the quake had caused electricity outages but no damage to their production lines.

''It seems a bit overblown... now it appears there will only be a few days delay,'' said analyst Jan Coen Balt at Dutch broker Stroeve after speaking to contacts in Taiwan.

''There was no structural damage, the real problem was the power outages,'' he said.

But he cautioned that pricing remained sensitive. ''Of course it's come in a tight market, so everybody's nervous,'' he added.

Too early to assess Taiwan quake impact- Intel
Intel does not produce DRAM (Dynamic Random Access Memory) chips -- the main sector analysts saw as potentially hit by the quake. It has customers in Taiwan and Roberts said the supply of other personal computer components, for instance motherboards, could be disrupted.

However, he said Intel's offices in Taiwan were open and telephones there were functioning.

Shares in European semiconductor firms spiked up in response to news of the quake, which killed more than 1,000 people and measured 7.6 on the Richter scale.
