Taiwan''s semiconductor industry output growth rate again recently revised down growth rate, estimated this year semiconductor industry output decline will continue to expand to 11.3%, of which in the foundry and memory of lowered greatly.
Research Institute of IEK system IC and process research manager Yang Rui Pro pointed out that figures published on August 10, is IEK help Taiwan Semiconductor Industry Association (TSIc) and questionnaire to the Taiwan major semiconductor manufacturers, the manufacturers according to the facts in return get information. Then IEK also accept Ministry of economic affairs itis program commissioned to do the semiconductor industry output prediction, since mid August after boom came to a standstill, decided again revised down growth rate.
Yang Rui Pro pointed out that IC packaging and testing industry cycle is approximately semiconductor manufacturing slow season 1, August 10, the predictions have positive growth is expected to negative growth in the first quarter of next year will be. But the third quarter of this year is not busy season, the fourth season of depression is not optimistic, therefore under the revised beta industry output value is negative growth.
