Leading edge leads the way in pure-play foundry growth
The total pure-play foundry market is forecast to grow 6.1% to $44.9bn in 2015. The entire increase in pure-play foundry sales is forecast to be due to sales of devices built using leading edge (less than 40nm) feature sizes. The <40nm pure-play foundry market is expected to increase 24% to $16.1bn in 2015 compared to $13.0bn in 2014 (see Figure 1, below). In contrast, pure-play foundry sales of ≥40nm devices are forecast to decline 2% to $...
