German Semiconductor Market Grew by $16 Billion in 2018
Date:2018-12-25
The semiconductor industry is the basis for the development of electronic products. In semiconductors, electronic components such as resistors, capacitors, diodes, transistors, and field effect transistors are the most sold, and the annual turnover is increasing. The number of semiconductors in the world is also changing. . According to reports, the highest turnover in the global semiconductor market in 2018 is Asia Pacific, accounting for 60%, and China alone accounts for 33%, accounting for half of Asia. The second largest region is North America, which accounts for 21%, a small increase compared to last year.

In the German semiconductor market, according to the German Central Association of Electronic Technology and Electronics Industry, the German semiconductor market has grown rapidly this year, with a growth rate of 8%, reaching $16 billion. The German market is expected to continue to grow in 2019 with a growth rate of 4%. According to statistics, the growth rate of the global semiconductor market is 15%, reaching 474 billion US dollars, and is expected to increase by 2.6% in 2019. It can be seen that Germany is Europe's most important semiconductor and investment production base. In the research of microelectronics research and development institutions or new production facilities, the future will remain attractive to the industry.

According to relevant analysis, the application of semiconductors in the automotive field will increase rapidly in three areas in 2019. First, connected cars, that is, high-end infotainment systems installed in vehicles; secondly, the use of automatic driving or driving assistance systems; third, the increase in electrification and electric vehicle production. It is estimated that by 2030, about 50% of cars will be equipped with an electric sensing system, and the semiconductor industry will enter a period of high growth.
 
At present, the growth of the semiconductor market is mainly based on the application of semiconductor components in smart phones, tablets, computers and televisions. The emerging industries in the world are also developing in the new energy industry. In the new energy industry, precision resistors and shunts are required every year. The number of electronic components such as capacitors and MOS tubes is growing, and will become an important area for the growth of the semiconductor industry in the future.
