China Top10 Chip Suppliers
China's overall semiconductor demand reached US$37 billion in 2005, up approximately 12.8 percent from 2004 according to iSuppli's recently-published China Competitive Landscaping Tool (CLT).
In contrast, China's semiconductor demand increased by 34.9 percent in 2004, indicating a drastic slowing of growth in 2005. China's semiconductor demand has enjoyed a brisk annual growth rate for about two decades, and so it's not surprising to see some slowing of the growth as the demand base expands.
