The production value of global semiconductor market in 2019 was US$412.307 billion to decline 12.0%, compared with US$468.778 billion in 2018. The main reasons were due to the US-China Trade War and the decline of memory market, where the DRAM market presented the supply in excess of demand. The excessive stocks lowered the price to further influence the global semiconductor market in 2019.
The global top 10 largest semiconductor manufacturers in 2019 were Intel, Samsung, TSMC, SK hynix, Micron, Broadcom, Qualcomm, TI, NVIDIA and STMicroelectronics. The manufacturers with IDM, fables and foundry took the top 10 largest place on CPU, GPU, memory and analog products.
