- Resumo
- This article studies some aspects of the international industry of digital semiconductors. It begins by reviewing the historical evolution of eletronic components up to the introduction of integrated circuits (ICs), associating each kind of component to the correspondent generation of computers. The present conditions of the market for semiconductor memory circuits are analized in greater detail, as well as the growing utilization of Application Specific ICs (ASICs), replacing standard components. The increasing competition in the international market of semiconductors is also studied, as well as other characteristics and main trends prevailing in that market. Other questions focused include the structural changes in the international industry of semiconductors caused by the generalization of automatized processes of production. The conclusions enphasize the importance of the consolidation of a microelectronic sector for the development of newly industrialized countries.
