Lewes, DE -- (SBWIRE) -- 07/07/2015 -- Report forecast the semiconductor market in Japan to grow at a CAGR of 0.61% over the period 2014-2019.

A semiconductor IC is a device that can function as an amplifier, timer, and microprocessor and can store data. Semiconductor manufacturers fabricate these ICs based on the designs provided by fabless semiconductor companies. Though fabless semiconductor companies design and sell hardware devices and semiconductor chipsets, they outsource the fabrication process of these devices to semiconductor foundries. Semiconductor ICs find applications in segments such as communications, consumer electronics, computer, automotive, and industrial.

This report covers the present and future scenarios of the semiconductor market in Japan for the period 2015-2019. To calculate the market size, we used the revenue generated by semiconductor manufacturers, including both pure-play foundries and IDMs, in Japan. The report also considers the domestic semiconductor consumption and the semiconductor imports for estimating the market size.

However, the following were not used to calculate the market size:
- Test and assembly services
- Semiconductor equipment sales
- Semiconductor materials sales

Semiconductor Market in Japan 2015-2019, has been prepared based on an in-depth market analysis with inputs from industry experts. The report covers the market landscape and its growth prospects in the coming years. The report includes a discussion of the key vendors operating in this market.

According to the report, the availability of low-cost smartphones in Japan and the increase in the number of mobile broadband subscribers and mobile Internet users are expected to increase the shipment of smartphones by 2019. This is a significant increase on shipments in 2013 and is partly because of regional vendors introducing tablets in Japan. As the number of tablets sold by regional vendors increases, it follows that semiconductor ICs, an integral part of such devices, will undergo a similar rise in demand, leading to market growth during the forecast period.
