Intel brand is king on market ?

Intel will continue to keep the “Champion” on the chip market in the world last year, while competitor AMD is the first time rớt TOP 10 from the chip manufacturers the world’s largest.

The line market research iSupply, very few producers in the Top 25 chip to maintain the level of revenue last year by the consumption needs of users in low impact from the degradation of global economy. Lies in the management of major brands business not with the smaller competitor.

Meanwhile, competitor intimate Intel Samsung Electronics is still maintaining your position in the No. 2 ranking with 6.5% revenue market share of global chip. Last year, Samsung Electronics has implemented several campaigns significantly reduce the price of products, DRAM and NAND flash memory.

Largest competitor Intel in chip production is AMD each year in Top 10 in 2007, the years being rớt from this list. AMD’s revenue decreased 7.8% in 2008 to USD 5.46. AMD is currently ranked 12 th position in the chip manufacturers worldwide largest (ranked 2007 is position 10).

Besides AMD, Texas Instruments (TI) also ranked rớt, from position 3 to position 4 is mainly due to competition from gay gắt area Mobile chip production. Replace position 3 of the TI Toshiba. iSuppli also refers to a phenomenon that some chip manufacturers Japan benefited from the economic crisis because of strong Japanese Yen compared to over U.S. $.

Draw back the cause of TI is determined by Qualcomm, employers have expanded dynamics manufacturing chip for Mobile Phones. Last year, ranked by Qualcomm has increased significantly - from position 13 to position 8, mainly due to revenue will increase 15.3%, reaching 6.48 billion USD.

Last year the global DRAM price reduction makes for a strong Hynix Semiconductor affected large. Manufacturer has fallen from position 6 in the ranking in 2007 to 9th position in the list last year due to decreased sales 1 / 3.

Many chip manufacturers have announced revenue decreased rapidly in the last quarter 4. “Results last statistics showed that sales industry chip global reduction to 21.5%, exceeding far more numerous than the level forecast 8.8% initial, iSupply said.
