Global Semiconductor Capital Equipment Market: Introduction
The
semiconductor capital equipment industry markets and manufactures,
deices or components used in production of electronic components. The
semiconductor capital equipment are classified as back end or front end.
Front end semiconductor capital equipment involves various functions
such as etching, photolithography, ion implantation, deposition,
cleaning, chemical & mechanical polishing and silicon wafer
fabrication. Back-end semiconductor capital equipment encompasses
packaging, assembling and testing of integrated circuits. The front-end
semiconductor capital equipment segment accounts for majority of
industry sales, with the back-end semiconductor capital equipment making
up the balance. Stocks of volatile semiconductor capital equipment are
suitable for aggressive investors who seeks to gain on industry
upswings.
Semiconductor
capital equipment plays an important role in the manufacturing of ICs
(Integrated circuits) and are typically located in a manufacturing plant
called a fab. The fabs are fabrication facilities, which manufactures a
range of semiconductor capital equipment or devices. The ICs are
either manufactured in foundries as per the requirement and the designs
provided by clients, or they are designed in-house by firms called
Integrated Device Manufacturers (IDMs). The semiconductor capital
equipment industry is characterized as highly cyclical, and it reflects
the nature or characteristics of its primary end market, i.e. the chip
sector. Some categories of semiconductor capital equipment are fab
facilities equipment, thermal processing equipment, wafer manufacturing
or processing, inspection measurement, Ion implant equipment, memory
test equipment and many others.
Global Semiconductor Capital Equipment Market: Dynamics
To
better compete in the market and to make increasingly complex chip
designs semiconductor capital equipment manufacturers need leading-edge
tools. Thus advancements in the circuitry board technology is one of the
major factors driving the growth of the semiconductor capital equipment
market over the projected period. Also the increasing need to create
ICs for various applications is leading to rising construction of fabs.
This increasing construction of fabs, proliferates the production
capacity of semiconductor and leads towards the growth of the
semiconductor capital equipment market in the coming years. Moreover,
the demand for semiconductor memory devices is expected to rise
significantly owing to the rapidly advancing dynamics of consumer
electronics, which in turn will fuel the growth of the semiconductor
capital equipment market during the forecast period. However, the lack
of knowledge and skilled labours in the fields of technology and
engineering is a major factor restraining the growth of the
semiconductor capital equipment market over the projected period of
time.
