With this year is coming to an end, in the 3D NAND, advanced foundry and advanced packaging investment driven, making the equipment spending power than the beginning of the strong forecast …
The book-to-bill ratio (B / D) for the North American semiconductor equipment manufacturers was $ 1.55 billion in November 2016, according to the latest book-to-bill shipping report from the International Semiconductor Industry Association (SEMI) B value) of 0.96, on behalf of the semiconductor equipment manufacturers in the month of $ 100 per shipment of products, you can receive orders worth $ 96. b32529c182k289
SEMI report pointed out that the North American semiconductor equipment manufacturers in November 2016 the world received an order estimate of $ 1.55 billion, compared with $ 14.9 billion in October growth of 4%, and compared with $ 1.24 billion in the same period last year, growth of 25.1 / RTI & gt;
Shipments in November were $ 1.61 billion, a slight decrease of 1.1% from $ 1.63 billion last month, but up 25.2% from $ 1.29 billion for the same period last year.
“As this year is drawing to a close, driven by strong investment in 3D NAND, advanced foundry and advanced packaging, equipment spending is expected to be stronger than expected at the beginning of the year,” said Cao Shih-lun, president of SEMI’s Taiwan region. Expenditure growth in 2017. tda7580
SEMI’s published B / B values are based on the average order book value of North American semiconductor equipment manufacturers for the past three months, divided by the average amount shipped in the past three months.
