IC Insights, a research and development organization, said that shipments of electronic systems, including mobile phones and personal computers, are likely to weaken this year. It is expected that mobile phone shipments will be reduced by 1% this year, and personal computer shipments will be reduced by 1%. Will grow by about 3%.
The electronic system market will grow steadily, and the semiconductor market will grow at a high speed. IC Insights believes that the gap between the two is mainly due to the increase in the inclusion of semiconductors in electronic systems.
According to IC Insights, the trend of semiconductors in electronic systems has increased significantly over the past 30 years. The proportion of semiconductors in electronic systems has risen sharply this year, mainly due to the increase in the average selling price of dynamic random access memory (DRAM) and NAND flash (NAND Flash). drive.
IC Insights expects that the proportion of semiconductors in electronic systems will fall to 30.2% in 2020, and will rise to 31.5% in 2022, setting a record high; the proportion of semiconductors in electronic systems will remain above 30% from 2018 to 2022. Level.
