Longer Term Outlook for Semiconductor Products Full Story:http://www.sia-online.org/pre_release.cfm?ID=386 The Semiconductor Industry Association reports 2005 global sales of semiconductor products has grown by 6.8 percent to 227.6 billion in 2005, and forecasts to increase by 7.9 percent to $245.5 billion in 2006, 10.5 percent to $271.3 billion in 2007, and 13.9 percent to $309.2 billion in 2008. "While Information Technology products will continue to be the largest market sectors for semiconductors, consumer products will be the major growth-drivers in the years ahead,”said SIA President George Scalise. "Advances in microchip technology are enabling a wide array of new products that have captured the imagination of consumers. Cell phones are rapidly evolving into multi-purpose personal information and entertainment devices. Pocket-sized MP3 players are incorporating video and gaming functions. The conversion from analog to digital television is accelerating and will gain momentum over the next several years, especially now that Congress appears ready to set a date certain for the U.S. transition to digital broadcasting. Consumers are now driving most of the advances in personal computers, which have become the hub of home technology. Fast-growing consumer markets are expanding demand for leading-edge products for digital signal processing, flash memory, and power management.” pcyhuang huangcapital.com
