Is there any market for semiconductor diodes?

Introduction: The information industry is a strategic leading industry in the 21st century, and its core semiconductor industry's technology level and industry scale have become an important indicator of a country's economic development and scientific and technological progress. In 2006, the global semiconductor market was US$254.7 billion. This is a 12% increase from the 227.5 billion U.S. dollars in 2005 and is expected to reach 285 billion U.S. dollars in 2007.

The scale of the semiconductor market in China has reached 75.5 billion U.S. dollars in 2006, ranking first in the global market, among which the IC market has sales of 63.2 billion U.S. dollars. The major countries that provide products to the market are the United States, Japan, and the European Union and other countries and regions, such as: Intel, Samsung, Texas Instruments, Toshiba, STMicroelectronics, Infineon, Renesas, AMD, Hynix, NXP (Philips (Pu), Freescale, NEC, TSMC and others. In 2006, China imported 100 billion U.S. dollars worth of semiconductor products. China's IC output value of 13.1 billion US dollars, mainly concentrated in the Yangtze River Delta, Bohai Bay, Pearl River Delta and other coastal areas, such as SMIC, Shanghai Hua Hong NEC, Suzhou and warships, Hynix - Italian law, Wuxi China Resources, Shanghai advanced, Shanghai Hongli, Shanghai Xinjin, Shougang Ridian (NEC), Shanghai TSMC, Shanghai Belling, etc.

Discrete devices, including diodes, transistors, power transistors, optoelectronic devices; widely used in home appliances, lighting, automotive, communications and other departments. The total annual demand is about 1 trillion. Japan, the United States, Malaysia, and China's Taiwan region are important production areas. China is a big producer and consumer. In 2005, China produced 160 billion discrete devices with 221 billion market sales. In 2006, it produced 182 billion, and the market demand was 270 billion. Only the rest rely entirely on imports, and the prospects for developing discrete devices are still vast.

With the gradual commercialization of the next-generation Internet, next-generation mobile communications and digital television, the upgrading of the electronic machine industry will bring tremendous market opportunities for the development of the electronic materials and components industry.
