Fexon Technology Ltd says: Last
year in October to December global semiconductor factory utilization rate was
90.4%, a four industry groups this week revised its earlier this week announced
92% of the statistical results. The industrial group statistics include Intel
Corp., Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd. and Texas Instruments 40 chip maker.
Semiconductor International Capacity Statistics Association (SICAS): more
before the first quarter of the utilization rate of 89.9%, a small growth.
Utilization rate of more than 90 percent will greatly stimulate the chip maker
to build new production lines and factories. SICAS pointed out that in the last
year in October to December period, the average weekly output of integrated
circuits is 2.12 million silicon wafers, rather than the previously reported
3.15 million silicon wafer. Last year, in July and September to the productive
capacity of 2.09 million a week before the announcement is 3110000.
Wafer plants started to intensify, reflecting the strong demand for the chip
market, the weekly market demand for the first quarter was about 1.91 million,
compared with the previous quarter of 1.88 million. The group had previously
said, the actual production from the previous quarter's 2.84 million increased
to 2.9 million.
