SEMI and TechSearch International Unveil Comprehensive Database

Today, SEMI and TechSearch International have launched the new 2025 edition of the Worldwide Semiconductor Assembly & Test Facility Database. This updated version stands out as the most extensive resource available for tracking the intricate global assembly and test sites operated by both integrated device manufacturers (IDMs) and outsourced semiconductor assembly and test providers (OSATs).

Importance of the Database

The Worldwide Assembly & Test Facility Database plays a crucial role in mapping out the global semiconductor supply chain. As technology continues to evolve, industry stakeholders require up-to-date information to identify new capacities and monitor technology adoption across different regions. The enhancements in the 2025 report offer deeper insights that are essential for navigating the complexities of this dynamic industry.

Key Features of the 2025 Edition

According to Clark Tseng, Senior Director of Market Intelligence at SEMI, “The 2025 edition reflects the dynamic growth and increasing complexity of the global semiconductor supply chain.” Here are some of the significant updates included in this edition:

1. Expanded Coverage: The database now features 750 facilities globally, marking an increase of 70 new sites compared to the previous edition. This expansion is indicative of the continual investment and growth in the semiconductor sector.

2. Enhanced Data Structure: Users will benefit from improved data granularity. New columns have been introduced to bolster usability:
- Each facility is now assigned a unique Facility ID, simplifying tracking and referencing.
- Additional columns provide details about device types such as memories, logic/analog ICs, power devices, RF/MEMS chips, and CMOS image sensors. This allows users to quickly assess the specialized manufacturing capabilities available at each site.
- Information about the startup year for certain facilities has also been included, offering insight into the operational history of the establishments.

3. Regular Facility Updates: The database continues its commitment to providing up-to-date information regarding facility status, ownership, location, plant type, production capabilities, and certification status. This is invaluable for manufacturers, suppliers, and analysts who rely on timely and precise data for strategic decision-making.

The Competitive Edge

As the semiconductor market continues to evolve, staying informed is key for industry stakeholders. The 2025 edition equips them with essential intelligence about global packaging and testing capabilities, technology adoption, and regional trends. This level of insight is crucial for companies looking to maintain a competitive edge in a rapidly changing landscape.
