Even China cannot cope with semiconductor import substitution. Local companies cover 16.7% of demand
A recent study showed that foreign companies, including Samsung, SK Hynix, TSMC and others, will continue to occupy the lion’s share of China’s integrated circuit market until 2026.
IC Insights has released a new report that includes the current global economic outlook for 2022 and detailed market forecasts through 2026, semiconductor vendor rankings for 2021, analysis of IC markets by region with an additional focus on China, and other data.
Analysts point out that a very clear distinction should be made between the Chinese IC market and China’s own IC manufacturing. IC Insights writes that although China has been the largest consumer of integrated circuits since 2005, this has not resulted in rapid import substitution and significant growth in the production of integrated circuits in China.
Integrated circuit manufacturing in China accounted for 16.7% of its $186.5 billion integrated circuit market in 2021, up from 12.7% 10 years earlier in 2011. Moreover, IC Insights predicts that this share will increase by 4.5 percentage points from 2021 to 21.2% in 2026 (0.9 percentage points per year on average).
Of the $31.2 billion worth of integrated circuits produced in China last year, China-headquartered companies produced $12.3 billion (39.4%), accounting for only 6.6% of the country’s 186 IC market. .5 billion dollars. The rest was produced by TSMC, SK Hynix, Samsung, Intel, UMC and other foreign companies that have integrated circuit wafer factories located in China. Of the 12.3 billion integrated circuits produced by Chinese companies, IC Insights estimates that about $2.7 billion came from IDM and $9.6 billion came from companies like SMIC.
If Chinese integrated circuit manufacturing grows to $58.2 billion in 2026, as IC Insights predicts, Chinese manufacturing of these products will still account for only 8.1% of the total projected global integrated circuit market in 2026 of 717 .7 billion dollars.
It is estimated that Chinese production of these products will likely still represent only about 10% of the global market in 2026.

165 Hz, 18 GB of RAM, a huge screen, a huge battery and an unusual design. Asus ROG Phone 6 images revealed
The gaming smartphone Asus ROG Phone 6 will be presented on July 5, but today multiple images of the device have appeared on the Web.
As you can see, the design will still be very unusual with many different elements and accents, but this is normal for a gaming smartphone. The camera module will change somewhat, although in general Asus is clearly not trying to make the new model radically different from the previous one.
The renders also show a new version of the proprietary AeroActive Cooler 6, which can also act as a stand, as well as a Devilcase Guardian Lite Plus case.
The smartphone is credited with SoC Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1, a 165-Hz AMOLED display with a diagonal of 6.78 inches, 18 GB of RAM and a 5850 mAh battery with 65-watt charging.
Despite the fact that the 13th generation Intel Core processors will be released at best in the fall, at least one offer for the sale of the top-end Core i9-13900K has already appeared on the Web.
The seller asked for only $426 for the CPU, which is quite good for such a processor. Of course, you need to understand that this is an early sample, but the seller claimed that everything works and even overclocking is supported.
Unfortunately, the owner covered up all the codes, so it is impossible to determine at least some details about the CPU. The seller himself indicated that the processor has 8 large cores and 16 small ones, which corresponds to the configuration of the top Raptor Lake.
The processor was sold very quickly. Perhaps in the near future its new owner will publish some CPU tests.

When the GeForce RTX 3090 Ti has 21 times more CUDA cores. GeForce GTX 1630 completely declassified
The GeForce GTX 1630 graphics card may be released today, but for now, third-party manufacturers are already sharing the parameters of this adapter.
Colorful, for example, is still hiding some of the characteristics, but MSI has revealed everything. So now we are 100% sure that the new product is based on the TU117 GPU with 512 CUDA cores, that is, in any case, it is much weaker than the GTX 1650 on the same GPU, but with a large number of active CUDA cores. At the same time, it can be noted that the new CUDA cores are 21 times smaller than the RTX 3090 Ti, although such a comparison takes place simply for the sake of beautiful numbers.
The card also received 4 GB of GDDR6 memory with a frequency of 12 GHz and a 64-bit memory bus. As a result, the throughput is only 96 GB / s. For comparison, the same Radeon RX 6400 with the same bus has a figure of 128 GB / s, while the RX 6500 XT has 144 GB / s.
The GPU operates at frequencies of 1740-1785 MHz. Power consumption is declared equal to 75 W, that is, some models will do without a power connector, but the Colorful card has one.
The cards have the same set of ports: HDMI, DisplayPort and DVI.
