(04/29/98; 10:11 a.m. ET)
By Will Wade, Semiconductor Business News
Fabless semiconductor companies will need 45 percent more processed silicon from their wafer foundries in 1998, followed by another 30 percent increase in 1999, according to the results of a new survey released in San Jose, Calif., Tuesday by a trade group.

The survey, conducted by the Fabless Semiconductor Association, also says respondents expect more than 60 percent of their wafers to be processed with 0.35-micron and below technologies by 1999.
