Singapore – A Vibrant
Electronics Hub
Singapore’s 40-year history in the electronics industry has seen the
sector develop into a key contributor to the country’s economy.
Electronics is the major industry
underpinning Singapore’s economic
growth. In 2009, electronics contributed
an output of approximately S$63 billion
and employed more than 76,000
workers. Of the S$11.8 billion in fixed
asset investment Singapore received
that year, electronics was the largest
contributor, accounting for 41.5%.
Singapore aims to be a worldclass
electronics
hub,
creating
manufacturing solutions and producing
high value-added components for
the global market. This is the choice
location for companies and talent to
create and manage new markets,
advanced products and processes,
technologies and applications.
Semiconductor
Singapore’s semiconductor industry
consists of Integrated Circuit (IC)
design,
wafer
fabrication,
and
assembly and test activities. Today,
there are 14 wafer fabs, 20 assembly
and test operations, and about 40 IC
design centres. This includes the world’s
top three wafer foundry companies,
three of the world’s top five assembly
and test subcontractor companies,
and nine of the world’s top 10 fabless IC
design companies. In 2009, Singapore
accounted for 11.2% of the global
semiconductor output.
Leading players in Singapore include:
Broadcom, Globalfoundries, Infineon,
STATS ChipPAC, UMC, United Test &
Assembly Centre, Xilinx Asia Pacific,
and more.
New Growth Areas
With existing capabilities in IC design,
R&D and manufacturing technologies,
Singapore’s electronics industry also
provides the opportunity to develop
solutions for tomorrow’s challenges

security
Analogue IC design is the key enabling
capability for power management
and energy harvesting. To pre-position
the nation in advanced analogue
and mixed signal design capabilities,
Singapore launched the new IC Design
Centre of Excellence, VIRTUS.
The S$50 million centre aims to
be a world-class IC design house,
developing key technologies required
to design integrated circuits and
systems for applications in medical
technology, clean technology and
consumer electronics. In addition to its
primary focus in design, innovation and
enterprise, VIRTUS is also committed
to train more than 100 postgraduate
students and researchers in the next
five years.
