Chip plant equipment spending is expected to reach 44 billion US dollars in 2011

According to the International Semiconductor Equipment Materials Industry Association (SEMI), data compiled by its global chip database (WorldFabDatabase) shows that in 2011, semiconductor chip companies had more capital investment in chip factories and installed manufacturing capacity of chip plants than in previous years. The increase, but this year and next year, the semiconductor chip company's spending on the new chip factory will drop.

SEMI Senior Analyst ChristianGregorDieseldorff said: "2011 is the year that semiconductor chip manufacturers purchase semiconductor manufacturing equipment. It has been the year since February this year, companies have already raised the amount of capital investment in chip factories. In this way, This year, the chipmaker's investment in the procurement of manufacturing equipment is likely to reach a record 44 billion US dollars, but by next year, the relevant investment amount will fall by 6% to reach the level of 41 billion US dollars, even so, its value is still in addition to 2011 The highest year outside.”

However, the number of newly-built chip factories is “a record low”, and the number of newly-built chip factories can reflect the increase in the total capacity of the semiconductor industry in the next few years.

According to SEMI's statistics, there are 17 chip factories (including 13 LED chip factories in the direction of LED application) that have a high chance (greater than 60%) to start new construction this year. In other words, in addition to LED-related chip factories, only four semiconductor chip factories will begin construction this year, and the number of new chip factories will be the same next year.

In addition, SEMI's data also forecast the investment and development of the 450mm project. According to SEMI's forecast, the industry will conduct initial capital investment in manufacturing equipment for the 450mm trial production next year, and the world’s first chip factory that can be applied to 450mm wafer processing will begin to be built last year and more similar this year. The factory began to build. However, in general, the increase in the cost of building a chip factory will slow down this year and next.
