The volume of new market entries is low in the semiconductor foundry due to high capital investments, economies of scale, and the strong presence of well-established players in the market.

What is Semiconductor Foundry?

A semiconductor foundry, also known as a silicon foundry or a fab, is a specialized manufacturing facility that produces integrated circuits (ICs) or chips that power modern electronic devices, including smartphones, laptops, cars, and medical equipment. The process of producing chips in a foundry typically involves designing, mask making, wafer fabrication, packaging, and testing. It employs advanced manufacturing equipment and processes to create high-quality chips with high yields and low defect rates. Semiconductor foundries provide a wide range of services, including wafer fabrication, designing, packaging, testing, and logistics. It usually produces chips on a contract basis and develops and manufactures custom designs based on customers’ specifications. In addition to this, it offers a streamlined, cost-effective semiconductor production solution with an end-to-end approach.

COVID-19 Impact:

The COVID-19 pandemic had a considerable effect on the production and supply chain of semiconductor foundries. With severe disruptions in the global supply chain for semiconductors during the lockdown, there was a subsequent slowdown in the production of semiconductor chips. The lack of availability of components resulted in a shortage of chips and a subsequent decrease in demand. Apart from this, the lowered demand for semiconductor chips led to a surge in supply, resulting in a drop in semiconductor prices. In addition to this, the outbreak has caused a decline in the amount of capital available for investments in the semiconductor foundry market, which reduced the number of new projects being undertaken, hampering the market growth. Furthermore, the pandemic threatened a logistical and transportation slowdown due to the restrictions on road movement, which impacted the supply of raw materials and integrated chips. This has caused a further diminution in demand for semiconductor chips, further curtailing the revenue of semiconductor foundries.

Semiconductor Foundry Market Trends:

The growing demand for consumer electronics, including smartphones, tablets, laptops, and other devices, on account of rapid digitization and urbanization across the globe is primarily driving the market growth. Moreover, the increasing need for electronic components and systems in the automotive sector due to the rising demand for electric vehicles (EVs) is creating a positive outlook for the market. In line with this, the surging demand for advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS), infotainment systems, and engine control units to improve safety, comfort, and efficiency in vehicles is aiding in market expansion. In addition to this, the large-scale adoption of the Internet of Things (IoT), artificial intelligence (AI), and high-performance computing (HPC) and the emergence of 5G technology are impelling the demand for semiconductors in healthcare, transportation, and industrial automation. Concurrent with this, the proliferation of cloud-based services and the rise in the number of data centres are acting as significant growth-inducing factors. Furthermore, innovative technological advancements, such as the development of graphics processing units (GPUs) and tensor processing units (TPUs), are presenting remunerative growth opportunities for the market. Besides this, the surging employment of semiconductor foundry services from fabless semiconductor companies for outsourcing manufacturing processes to save cost is strengthening the market growth.
