A fabless  (fabrication-less) semiconductor company  specializes in the design and sale of hardware devices and semiconductor chips while outsourcing the fabrication or &quot;fab&quot; of the devices to a specialized manufacturer called a semiconductor foundry.
APAC – AsiaPACific…With many of these products being manufactured in Asia, along with growing consumption electronics in these countries, explains why sales to this region are so large. The Asia-Pacific region surpassed the Americas to become the world’s largest region for semiconductor sales in 2001, and since then, its lead has increased every year.
An integrated device manufacturer (IDM) is a semiconductor company which designs, manufactures, and sells integrated circuit (IC) products. Cypress Semiconductor, Fujitsu, Hitachi, IBM, IDT, Intel, LSI Corporation, Matsushita, Mitsubishi, Freescale, NEC, Philips, NXP, Samsung, STMicroelectronics, Infineon, Sony, National Semiconductor, Texas Instruments, and Toshiba. Vertical integrated captive producers manufacture for in-house use. Vertical integrated captive-merchant producers manufacture semiconductors partly for their own use and partly for sale. Merchant producers are companies making semiconductors only for sale. A fabless semiconductor company specializes in the design and sale of hardware devices implemented on semiconductor chips but do not manufacture them. Nvidia Today most major IDMs including Freescale, Infineon, Texas Instruments and Cypress Semiconductor have adopted the practice of outsourcing chip manufacturing as a significant manufacturing strategy. Foundries manufacture semiconductors to customer specifications but do not design them UMC (United Microelectronics Corporation) which was founded as Taiwan's first semiconductor company in 1980 Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC)
MESFET – Metal Semiconductor FETs.
HITEC city - H yderabad I nformation T echnology E ngineering C onsultancy City.. ATMP (Assembly Test Mark Plant). Fab city houses close 15 companies with an expected investment of $7Billion. This project will be realized over a number of years in three phases: Phase 1 : (07/08) investment of US$1 billion; the assembly and testing phase. Estimated employment: 2000 jobs. Phase 2 : (08/10) investment of US$2 billion; the construction of the actual chip manufacturing facility and leading to the production of semiconductor chips. Estimated employment: 1000 jobs. Phase 3 : (10/15-17) establishment of advanced semi-conductor plant. Estimated employment: 5000 jobs.

YOY – Year Over Year
All four of these companies (TSMC, GlobalFoundries, Samsung, Intel) are expected to outperform all other foundries in 2011, wielding the technology, capacity, and money to keep their leadership positions.
