Abstract
Although the semiconductor markets are well into recovery, things have changed in both the markets and the industry itself since the 2000 peak year. End product markets have become more competitive while the semiconductor industry itself has become more commoditized. This report draws on a variety of other In-Stat/MDR reports to look at trends in a cross section of end product markets. The report also examines recent trends within the semiconductor industry and ends with a top level 5 year forecast.
