Concise Analysis of the International Semiconductor Assembly and Test Services Market - Forecasts to 2016
M2 - Thu Mar 13, 5:05AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/sbbp8g/global) has announced the addition of the "Concise Analysis of the International Semiconductor Assembly and Test Services Market - Forecasts to 2016" report to their offering. One of the main trends witnessed in the Global Semiconductor Assembly and Test Services market is the increase in production capacity. As a result of the increasing demand for semiconductor devices worldwide, Semiconductor Assembly and Test Services providers are willing to increase their production capacity to provide services for large orders. Semiconductor Assembly and Test Services providers should be capable of catering to large orders, so that semiconductor manufacturers can outsource their assembly and test services to one Semiconductor Assembly and Test Services provider rather than many. Hence, many Semiconductor Assembly and Test Services providers are enhancing their capacity and the required skilled labor to meet the demand. According to the report, one of the main factors driving the market is the increasing number of fabless companies. Fabless companies outsource almost all processes to foundries, which in turn would outsource the assembly and testing requirements to Semiconductor Assembly and Test Services vendors. Further, the report states that one of the main challenges is the dependency on suppliers. Raw material suppliers in the Global Semiconductor Assembly and Test Services market are under constant pressure to provide their resources on time, mainly because of time-to-market pressure and the cyclical nature of the Semiconductor industry. Key Topics Covered: 1. Executive Summary 2. List of Abbreviations 3. Introduction 4. Market Research Methodology 5. Scope of the Report 6. Market Landscape 7. Geographical Segmentation 8. Vendor Landscape 9. Buying Criteria 10. Market Growth Drivers 11. Drivers and their Impact 12. Market Challenges 13. Impact of Drivers and Challenges 14. Market Trends 15. Key Vendor Analysis Companies Mentioned: - Advanced Semiconductor Engineering Inc. - Amkor Technology Inc. - Siliconware Precision Industries Co. Ltd. - STATS ChipPAC Ltd. - Atmel Corp. - Broadcom Corp. - Cambridge Silicon Radio Ltd. - ChipMOS Technologies Ltd. - Freescale Semiconductor Inc. - JCET-ChangJiang Elec.
