TI stretches lead in analog IC vendor ranking
There was no change in the ranking compared with 2016 and the market continues to show strong growth. NXP was the only company to show a decline in analog sales and this was due to its disposal of discrete and standard parts business to form the company Nexperia.
The total analog IC market was worth $54.5 billion in 2017, IC Insights estimates. Collectively, the top 10 companies generated $32.3 billion in analog IC sales in 2017 representing a 59 percent market share.
With analog sales of $9.9 billion and 18 percent marketshare, Texas Instruments was again the leading supplier of analog integrated circuits in 2017. TI’s 2017 analog revenue represented 76 percent of its $13.0 billion total IC sales and 71 percent of its $13.9 billion total semiconductor revenue, based on IC Insights’ estimates.

TI was among the first companies to manufacture analog semiconductors on 300mm wafers. TI has claimed that manufacturing analog ICs on 300mm wafers gives it a 40% cost advantage per unpackaged chip compared to using 200mm wafers. In 2017, about half of TI’s analog revenue was generated on devices built using 300mm wafers.
Second-place ADI registered a 14% increase in analog IC sales in 2017 to $4.3 billion, according to IC Insights’ supplier ranking. The 2016 and 2017 revenue numbers shown for ADI include sales from Linear Technology, which was acquired by the company in 1Q17 for $15.8 billion.
On Semi showed the largest analog sales gain in 2017, with revenues increasing 35 percent to $1.8 billion. On’s analog business was boosted in 2017 by record sales of power management products to the automotive market, IC Insights said.
