Euro semiconductors sales rise backed by ‘strong demand’

Sales of semiconductors in Europe in September 2015 were $2.871billion, an increase of 2.2% from the previous month, but 10.6% lower than in September 2014. According to the European semiconductor Industry Association (ESIA), third quarter sales in Europe were $8.612bn, an increase of 1.6% over Q2.

On a worldwide basis, semiconductor sales in September were $28.411bn, a 1.9% increase over August. Third quarter sales, meanwhile, were 0.6% higher than Q2.

According to ESIA, strong European demand for semiconductors in September resulted in good growth for most of the main product categories. Demand for MOS microprocessors rose by 5.5% compared to August, while sales of flash memories grew by 3.2% and discretes by 2.6%. Good growth was also reported by the computer, automotive, ic card, consumer and wireless communication sectors.

Measured in Euro, semiconductor sales were €2.579bn; up by 2.1% versus the previous month and 6.4% higher than September 2014.
