Taiwan's South Korea is gaining ground in the LCD and semiconductor industry chains

The impact of Japan’s earthquake on the global electronics industry is still difficult to accurately estimate more than 20 days after the incident, but it reveals that when the electronics industry is concentrated in a single country, any single country’s change will have a great impact on the global technology industry. . In addition to Japan, Taiwan, South Korea, and some mainland regions are also major producers of scientific and technological products. The manufactured products include LCD panels, semiconductors, etc. Therefore, the global electronics industry must learn lessons from Japan’s earthquakes and prepare for many centralized production sites around the world. Assistance program.

First talk about Taiwan, Taiwan is the main foundry production, its foundry accounted for 67% of the world. More than 150 IC design companies worldwide use wafer foundry to produce, and this market is worth 30 billion US dollars annually. In addition to wafer foundry, Taiwan also has a place in the production of LCD panels. The production of medium and small-sized and large-size LCD panels accounts for 58% and 34% of the world's total.

In South Korea's production of LCD panels, the production of medium and small-sized and large-size LCD panels accounts for 18% and 51% of the world's output. In addition, South Korea's output of DRAM and flash memory respectively account for 60% to 50% of the world's total. An accident in this area will have a great impact on the global electronics industry supply chain.
