【产通社，11月5日讯】世界半导体行业协会（Semiconductor Industry Association，SIA）11月1日表示，尽管全球经济增长存在不确定性，今年9月份全球半导体销售额仍相比8月份的251亿美元增长了2.7%，达到了257.6亿美元，但相比上年同期下跌1.7%。

全球半导体协会总裁Brian Toohey表示，9月份的数据代表着较为乐观的第三季度的结束。尽管全球经济不确定性限制了今年余下时间的（全球半导体）销量展望，但是近期来自美国和欧洲的积极销售迹象令人鼓舞。

SIA指出，在整个第三季度，日本的需求主要受市场从今年早些时候的地震和海啸灾难中复苏推动，并取得了14.9%的季度增长。另外，来自汽车应用、手机、平板电脑等移动设备的需求也十分强劲。查询进一步信息，请访问http://www.sia-online.org/。
