[ Introduction ]: Sino-US trade war has made semiconductors a sensitive word. China's semiconductors are heavily dependent on imports. This is a situation that cannot be changed in the short term. What is the performance of the manufacturers with semiconductor core technology in the market in the past year?
Last year, the top ten suppliers accounted for 59% of the analog market, Texas Instruments (TI) expanded its leading position among top analog suppliers, and ON Semiconductor's growth was the strongest.
The latest monthly update of IC Insights' 2018 McClean report shows that the top 10 IC suppliers in the $54.5 billion simulation market last year accounted for 59% of global sales in this category in 2017. Taken together, the top 10 companies had sales of analog ICs of $32.3 billion last year, while sales in 2016 were $28.4 billion, up 14% year-on-year, and market share increased by 2 percentage points. According to the latest news, eight of the top ten suppliers have an overall simulated market growth rate of more than 10% in 2017.
With simulated sales of $9.9 billion and 18% market share, Texas Instruments became the leading supplier of analog ICs again in 2017. In 2016, TI's analog IC market share was 17%. Last year, the company's simulated sales increased by about $1.4 billion, an increase of 16%, more than double the number of ADI companies ranked second. According to IC Insights estimates, TI's 2017 simulated revenues accounted for 76% of its $13 billion in total IC sales and 71% of its $13.9 billion in semiconductor revenue.
TI is one of the first companies to produce analog semiconductors on 300mm wafers. TI claims that manufacturing analog integrated circuits on 300mm wafers results in a 40% cost advantage for each unpackaged chip compared to using 200mm wafers. In 2017, more than half of TI's analog revenue was made using 300mm wafers.
According to IC Insights' supplier rankings, second-placed Analog Devices' sales of analog ICs in 2017 increased 14% to $4.3 billion. The 2016 and 2017 revenue figures for ADI include Linear Technology's sales, which acquired Linear Technology for $15.8 billion in the first quarter of 2017.
NXP is the only negative growth supplier in the top 10 last year, with last year's simulated sales falling (-1%). The decline in NXP's simulated revenue is attributable to the sale of its standard product business to the China Investors Alliance, which consists of Jian Guang Capital and Wise Road Capital. The $2.75 billion deal was completed in February 2017. The standard product business was renamed Nexperia and is headquartered in the Netherlands.
Among the top 10, ON Semiconductor's simulated sales increased the most in 2017, with revenues rising 35% to $1.8 billion, accounting for 3% of the market. In 2016, its simulated sales increased by 16%. The strong growth in sales over the past two years was the result of ON Semi’s acquisition of Fairchild Semiconductor for $2.4 billion in September 2016. ON's analog business also recorded record sales growth in the automotive market in 2017 due to its power management products, especially active safety, powertrain, body electronics and lighting applications.
