The market research firm,  IHS said in 2013 global semiconductor revenue growth of 5% , which is the best performance of memory chips .In 2013 semiconductor revenue totaled $ 318.1 billion , compared with $ 303.1 billion in 2012 increased 5 %, effectively reversing the trends of the industry. Semiconductor revenue in 2012 decreased by 2.4 % compared to 2011 's $ 310.6 billion .The sum of the revenue of the largest 25 chip manufacturers to reach $ 225.3 billion , accounting for 71 % of the total industry revenues. The highest revenues chip maker Intel, its 2013 revenues of $ 47 billion , corresponding to a market share of 15%.Dale Ford , vice president of IHS (Dale Ford) said: " Memory IC is a key factor in the growth of the semiconductor industry DRAM memory products in the highest product revenue growth , due to the supply and demand balance , the income of such products jumped 32.5 percent . revenue NAND flash memory products increased by 24.2 % due to demand for smart phones and tablet PCs memory has been growing . "Thanks to the outstanding performance of the memory market , the main memory suppliers have achieved earnings growth . Due to strong organic growth and the acquisition of Elpida , Micron Technology 's memory revenue growth of 108.5% , its market ranking from 10th in 2012 to fourth place .Due to achieve a 42.8% organic growth , Hynix seventh ranked by market rose to fifth place . All in all , the memory semiconductor market vendors occupy the top five seats in the three seats. Among the top 25 semiconductor manufacturers , Qualcomm and MediaTek of Taiwan's science and technology performance in California is also very prominent, mainly because of their performance in the chip leader in the field of wireless devices in the market . Qualcomm's growth rate of 30.6 percent , maintained its third position ; MediaTek rose to 14, with a growth rate of 36.1%.In contrast , the Japanese chip makers generally poor performance in 2013 . Renesas Electronics, Sony and Rohm Semiconductor 2013 revenues were down 13.7 %, 27 % and 14.4 %. Renesas Electronics fell from sixth to tenth place .Headquartered in total revenues of the semiconductor supply the Asia Pacific region 's growth of 14.7 % of their total market share of 25.3% , a record high. This is also the global semiconductor revenue share of the Asia-Pacific region for the first time more than 25 %.Headquartered in total revenues of semiconductor vendors in the Americas grew by 8.7% , their total market share of 52.4%. The sum of the Japanese semiconductor vendors revenues decreased 17.9%.
