Sales in the semiconductor intellectual property market are expected to increase to 5.7 billion dollars in 2017

Sales of the Semiconductor intellectual Property (IP) market are expected to increase from $2.5 billion trillion in 2012 to $5.7 billion in 2017, with a composite annual growth rate of more than 14%, according to a market research report by MarketsandMarkets, a US market research and consultancy.

The investigation report pointed out that the growth of the semiconductor intellectual property market is embodied in the IP of integrated circuit and on chip system two domains, but the total revenue of the system IP on the chip is expected to grow more, the compound annual growth rate will be about 19%. The FPGA and PLD in integrated circuits and on-chip systems are the fastest growing, reaching 21.16%, with total sales following the IP of the SOC processor, ranked second.

The report notes that the SOC sector in all intellectual property industries has a faster growth rate than its integrated circuit sector. The Global intellectual property market value chain has grown into an extensive network encompassing all areas.
