Semico Research is a marketing and engineering research company founded in 1994 by a group of semiconductor industry veterans who believed that the validity of semiconductor product forecasts could be greatly improved if the forecasts were based on semiconductor consumption in end-use markets. Semico forecasts, today, are based on that idea.

Semico publishes market research studies in three areas: semiconductors by product type (DRAM, SRAM, FLASH, Micrologic, etc.), end-use markets (set-top boxes, modems, cell phones, etc.), and manufacturing (foundry supply and demand, wafer demand, etc.).
