Semiconductor IP market reportedly grew 25% last year EBN (04/30/02 11:38 a.m. EST) siliconstrategies.com The semiconductor IP market expanded 25% in 2001 despite the weak global economy and declining sales in the rest of the electronics industry, according to research firm Gartner Dataquest. In a report today, Gartner Dataquest said revenue in the chip IP market grew to $892 million last year from $713.5 million in the prior year. The market was dominated again by Cambridge, England-based ARM Holdings PLC, which increased its share to 20% from 18% with sales of $179 million. Despite ARM's dominance, other market leaders saw their share eroded by the entrance of new companies, Gartner Dataquest said. For instance, No. 2 semi IP supplier Rambus Inc.'s 2001 revenue rose 13%, to $107.3 million from $95.1 million in 2000 but its market share fell more than one percentage point to 12% as newer companies at the bottom of the ladder slowly gained traction.
