Semiconductor is a Critical Enabler of GWP Value and
Growth..
But, Semiconductor Industry is challenged on the
Economics of Technology Scaling
What may be the Global impact ?

Factors for IoT to Takeoff
• Reduced costs of sensors, MCUs, RF, LEDs
– Lower manufacturing costs
– Move to 300mm for efficiency, high volume
• Low Power
• Embedded Processing
– Distributed intelligence
– Reduce load on bandwidth
• Interoperability
– Manageable number of standards
– Open source framework for apps
• Security
– Connectivity & privacy

Evolving Industry Landscape

Foundry, Qualcomm and ARM winners in mobility

Mobility: Low-end driving growth; high-end driving profits
PC to mobility transition
–
2017: 1.8bn mobile devices (smartphone and tablet)

PCs (x86 base): Declining (~300mm units in 2013)

5 companies drive >60% of total industry wafer demand

System companies designing directly to fabs/foundry

Over $20B of M&A during the past three years

Semiconductor industry remains cyclical (4-yr forecast CAGR of ~6%)

Mobility CAGR ~10%, foundry CAGR 6-8%

Capex and development costs increasing

Only a few 14nm fabs in the world with $3-5bn revenue / year each

28nm and 14/10nm likely to be long-lived nodes
Customer consolidation
Supplier consolidation
Industry cyclicality
