The semiconductor market is driven by the computer market. This is still the largest consumption market for semiconductors with $91.6 billion in revenue generated in 2006, or about 35 percent of the worldwide market in terms of revenue share. Assuming a growth rate of 10 percent on average per year, this market is expected to reach a value of over $150 billion by 2012, contributing about one-third of all semiconductor revenue. Most of the revenue generated by computer application demand comes from microprocessors, memory, and logic, but there are significant vertical product markets that are adding to this segment, including wireless, sensors, and power. This new study provides readers with revenue forecasts for discretes, optoelectronics, sensors, analog, logic, memory, MPU, MCU, and DSP in the computer segment. Forecasts are provided by region, by product, and by application category, which includes desktops, notebooks, servers, peripherals and storage. Supplier market share is also provided for suppliers to the computer application market.
