Japanese Electronics Flagging Components Manufacturers Suffer


Natural disasters last year constantly, especially in March a earthquake tsunami, make Japanese electronics industry suffered a severe blow, Japanese electronics industry in the past has been an pull postwar Japan the high-speed economic development the important power, had made made in Japan  in the world market of good public praise, now Japanese electronics industry in jail, it's hard to see over time.
In early February Japan panasonic, SONY and XiaPuSan home electric company revealed last fiscal year performance expectations, after-tax net loss will be as high as 1.29 trillion yen, financial situation is already on all signs debacle. And panasonic is Japanese manufacturing industry in the history of the value of the mortgage losses, losses have as high as 780 billion yen.
Faced with such dilemma for Japanese electronics enterprises have make corresponding rectification, trying to reverse the current predicament. By the end of last year, SONY, Toshiba and Hitachi has set up a file in the middle and small LCD screen on the cooperation agreement. Since February this year, panasonic, Fujitsu and renesas electronics also start the system LSI with semiconductor, namely large scale integrated circuit negotiating business, to expand the scale of industry and competitiveness. On the other hand XiaPuZe for intelligent mobile phone is devoted to the development of small and medium-sized LCD screen.
Although at present, electronic enterprise are in the positive is make corresponding countermeasures ease its current predicament, but no good achievements and huge losses in the short term it is difficult to ease, and now the global electronic market competition becomes increasingly fierce, carelessly a bit was knocked out by the market, facing the predicament Japanese electronics industry can safely through tough times is still not clear.
Another Japanese many enterprises have been brewing transformation, also give corresponding before the industrial electronic components manufacturers to bring a lot of problems, the former electronic components would cause certain backlog, but the corresponding suppliers if not to follow transition, will inevitably difficult again cooperation, so to corresponding electronic components industry in the short term is likely to cause certain unrest..

IC Competition to a Higher Level


IHS iSuppli senior analyst GuWenJun in January 2012, we expect China IC design to to 2015 will be reached 10 billion us dollars, China to the needs of the IC and IC local supply capacity is still there is a huge gap
IC designservices company core the Original (VeriSilicon) the chairman and chief executive of DaiWeiMin think, now the company level of integration more and more high, the emerging OSO (Original Solution Orchestrator, entrust solutions coordinator, is not long ago put forward the concept of Gartner.) Than ODM (the design by), OEM (commissioning) high level, mainly in integrated applications and content. This level of integration not every enterprise can do. Such as apple product success, reflected in the application, and content of the rich, so hardware can do well, but the rich content is not easy, so samsung and China Taiwan's some manufacturers up go not too. Now Google (Google) also talking about the content, the acquisition of the Motorola hardware. In China, if baidu and alibaba going down may be very bad, because there is a user base.
China's Taiwan PC is very strong, but to smartphone/pad (tablet computer) has had problems, the reason is chips/chipset is very strong will not be enough, and lack of content. China's mobile phone have realized that do millet content, not just the phone itself.

EDA (electronic design automation) tools and IP (intellectual property rights) suppliers of Synopsys global vice President and President, Asia Pacific PanJianYue also believe, in general, the Chinese IC design company more energetic, of course, the largest base and relying on China's market. Another reason, on average, domestic design company was set up in that time is short, the intellectual property (IP) and the accumulation of design will be a bit less, so everyone also dare to more using new techniques. "At the moment I see in Asia, when a new technology, such as 40 nm out the wave came out, according to the statistics, we the 40 nm design company, the number of mainland China is walking in other Asian countries/regions of the front, which means the mainland of China company USES the advanced technology than the number of Chinese Taiwan area or South Korea. (note: of course enterprise, such as the middleweight samsung, Taiwan LianFa technology (MTK) have a lot of branch departments do at the same time.)" visible, Chinese companies are more actively to adopt new technology. This from one perspective, is "Chinese company on new technology more sensitive."

TSMC Gets us Win

On Feb. 21st, Samsung touted its new 32 nm high-k metal gate process, which showing features it hopes might win customers over from a supply constrained TSMC. 

While presenting its upcoming 32-nm quad-core mobile processor ostensibly, Samsung spent much of the time presenting its new process, which uses dynamic thermal management and body bias techniques for a significant 40% performance increase over its 45-nm Exynos chip. 

Intel and Globalfoundries have been shipping chips with HKMG for a while now, but with Samsung and TSMC joining the fray, the fab playing field is somewhat equalized. 

With the industry bracing itself for a tight supply of 28-nm from TSMC, Samsung’s 32-nm process and excess capacity manufacturing facilities could prove an attractive alternative to the likes of Nvidia, or even AMD. 

Analysts believe TSMC would give priority to customers like Apple or Qualcomm for the 28-nm process, which would make it difficult for smaller players to get the supply they needed. Samsung is not supply constrained, and the difference between a 28-nm process and a 32-nm process using HKMG is fairly marginal in terms of the end result. 

On the other hand, some in the industry still have qualms over using Samsung as a foundry, both because the firm competes with almost every one of its potential customers and because its fabrication capabilities are still widely untested. 

Those capabilities were being put under the microscope on Feb. 21st, with Samsung also talking up its dynamic thermal management system for mobile SoCs, as well as power gate technology for every CPU and even inside the GPU, allowing power to be switched off, cutting leakage at the source. 

Body Biasing would also give Samsung a differentiating factor from the likes of Intel, which doesn’t use the technology. Body Biasing can be used to either speed up a transistor when full throttle is needed, increasing leakiness slightly, or it can slow the transistor down, stemming leakage for a more optimal low power state. 

However, whether customers will be enticed or not remains to be seen.
