ABSTRACT
Beyond a doubt, we have now entered a new growth
phase for semiconductor markets, and the industry is making the
requisite adjustments. Unlike other upswings, this one appears to have
multiple drivers, which gives it a more stable foundation. Wireless
mobile computing, highly integrated cell phones, automotive navigation
systems, and various other product sectors are all surging in response
to a general economic upswing that puts additional discretionary
dollars in consumers' pockets and fattens capital budgets for
businesses. Communications, computing, consumer, and automotive markets
are all fueling the demand for a new generation of products that
provide a wide array of new features and functions.
