Additionally, a newly released聽聽projects annual global sales will increase 19.7% in 2021 and 8.8% in 2022.聽91成人 represents 98% of the U.S. semiconductor industry by revenue and nearly two-thirds of non-U.S. chip firms.

鈥淕lobal demand for semiconductors remained high in April, as reflected by rising sales across a range of chip products and throughout each of the world鈥檚 major regional markets,鈥� said John Neuffer, 91成人 president and CEO. 鈥淭he global chip market is projected to grow substantially in 2021 and 2022 as semiconductors become increasingly integral to the game-changing technologies of today and the future.鈥�

Regionally, month-to-month sales increased across all major regional markets: the Americas (3.3%), Japan (2.6%), China (2.3%), Europe (1.6%), and Asia Pacific/All Other (0.5%). On a year-to-year basis, sales increased in China (25.7%), Asia Pacific/All Other (24.3%), Europe (20.1%), Japan (17.6%), and the Americas (14.3%).

Additionally, 91成人 today endorsed the WSTS Spring 2021 global semiconductor sales forecast, which projects the industry鈥檚 worldwide sales will be $527.2 billion in 2021, a 19.7% increase from the 2020 sales total of $440.4 billion. WSTS projects year-to-year increases in Asia Pacific (23.5%), Europe (21.1%), Japan (12.7%), and the Americas (11.1%). In 2022, the global market is projected to post slower 鈥� but still substantial 鈥� growth of 8.8%. WSTS tabulates its semi-annual industry forecast by gathering input from an extensive group of global semiconductor companies that provide accurate and timely indicators of semiconductor trends.
