Semiconductor companies are migrating to the fabless business structure. This is a strategic decision taken by vendors as they want to focus more on the designing and development of their solutions rather than on the maintenance of the foundries. These companies are outsourcing their fabrication- and other manufacturing-related activities to foundries that are specialized in the manufacturing, testing, and assembling of semiconductor ICs. The resultant ratio of foundries and fabless companies stands at 1:11 in the global semiconductor market. The rise in the number of fabless semiconductor companies will increase the need for EDA software tools in the market, as these fabless companies are just concerned with the design aspect of semiconductor devices.” According to the report, high research and development investments will be a key driver for market growth. R&D forms an integral part of the semiconductor industry. The semiconductor industry recorded its highest R&D spending of $56.4 billion in 2015. This, however, is not in lieu of the industry standard for R&D spending since 2010, which grew at an average of 13% on a yearly basis. The industry spending toward R&D was up by only 0.5% from 2014, which is the lowest the industry has witnessed since the downturn of 2009. The spending was also below the CAGR of 4% between 2005 and 2015. Intel, one of the leading chip vendors in the market, accounted for 22% of total semiconductor spending in 2015. This was the highest among leading players such as Qualcomm, Samsung Electronics, and Avago Technologies and foundries such as Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Corporation (TSMC). An important aspect to note is that the top five R&D spenders were unchanged from 2014.
