SIA(美国半导体协会)近日报道,世界半导体市场2008年上半年同比增长5.4%,达1275亿美元。6月比上月仅增0.5%,同比则增长8%,达216亿美元。第2季度比上一季度增长3%,达647亿美元。能源成本大涨对电子产品和半导体都将产生影响,所幸牵引半导体产业前进的PC(占半导体需求的40%)和移? SIA (American Semiconductor Association) recently reported that the world semiconductor market in the first half of 2008 increased by 5.4% over the same period, reaching 127.5 billion U.S. dollars. June only increased by 0.5% from the previous month and up 8% from the same period of last year, reaching 21.6 billion U.S. dollars. The second quarter increased 3% from the previous quarter to reach 64.7 billion U.S. dollars. The rise in energy costs will have an impact on electronics and semiconductors. Fortunately, the PC that is pulling the semiconductor industry forward (accounting for 40% of the semiconductor demand)
