元器件交易網訊  3月24日消息，據外媒報道，三星電子縮小了與芯片巨頭英特爾的差距，其市場份額差從5.3%縮小到4.3%。

　　據市場研究公司IHS iSuppli調查顯示，三星去年發布338億美元銷售收入，排名第2。在內存和系統芯片領域比前一年上漲8.2%，其全球市場份額為10.6%,略高于2012年的10.3%。

　　與此同時，英特爾銷售收入470億美元，較2012年下降0.9%。其市場份額也從15.6%下降到14.8%，與三星電子的市場份額差是從2012年的5.3%減少到4.2%。

　　大部分原因可能是三星增加其在移動DRAM和NAND閃存存儲芯片的銷量，然而英特爾未能充分利用智能手機市場爆炸，由于個人電腦需求的下降而遭受挫折。

　　美國高通以172億美元的銷售額(市場份額為5.4%)排名第三，緊隨其后的是美光科技141億美元銷售額(4.4%)。SK海力士排名第五，銷售收入128億美元(4.0%),較前一年的90億美元增長42.8%(3.0%)。

　　Samsung Electronics has narrowed the gap with Intel Corp., the leader in the world's semiconductor market. It was largely because Samsung could increase its sales in mobile DRAMs and NAND flash memory chips while Intel failed to capitalize on the smartphone market explosion and suffered a setback as the personal computer demand declined.  

　　According to market research firm IHS iSuppli, Samsung was ranked No. 2 by posting a sales revenue of US$33.8 billion last year, up 8.2 percent from the previous year in memory and system chips. Its global market share of 10.6 percent was slightly higher than 10.3 percent in 2012.  

　　Intel, meanwhile, logged in a sales revenue of $47.0 billion, down 0.9 percent from 2012. Its market share has also declined to 14.8 percent from 15.6 percent. The market share difference with Samsung was 4.2 percentage points from 5.3 in 2012.  

　　Qualcomm of the United States took the third position with $17.2 billion in sales (market share of 5.4%), followed by Micron Technology with $14.1 billion (4.4%). SK Hynix was ranked fifth with a sales revenue of $12.8 billion (4.0%), up 42.8 percent from the previous year's $9.0 billion (3.0%).
