China's integrated circuit operation in the first three quarters of 2011

In the first half of 2011, total integrated circuit production in China reached 58.45 billion, an increase of 14.3% year-on-year. The whole industry realized sales revenue of 111.104 billion yuan, a year-on-year growth rate of 12.4%. Since the third quarter, due to the weak economy in Europe and the United States, overcapacity in manufacturing, and excess inventories of semiconductor products, the domestic IC industry has seen a significant slowdown in growth.

According to customs statistics, the import volume of integrated circuits from January to September 2011 was US$125.21 billion, an increase of 8.5% year-on-year; the export value was US$23.49 billion, an increase of 9.3% year-on-year.

Figure 2009Q1 - 201Q3 China's IC Industry Sales Size and Growth In the three industries, the overall sales of the IC design industry continued in the first three quarters driven by the rapid increase in sales revenue of key IC design companies such as Hass Semiconductor and Spreadtrum Communications. Maintain a high growth rate. IC design industry sales reached 30.589 billion yuan, a significant increase of 34.6% year-on-year; chip manufacturing and packaging and testing industry was affected by factors such as weak international markets, the growth rate fell sharply, including chip manufacturing sales growth in the first three quarters of the same period last year The rate fell back to 5.6%, with a scale of 33.87 billion yuan. The year-on-year growth rate of sales of packaging and testing industry fell to 5.8%, with a scale of 46.585 billion yuan.
