Absolutely Fabless: A good year for those who don't make the things themselves

2021 was a fabulous year for the largest global fabless chip designers, thanks to ongoing global chip shortage that caused silicon prices to spike, according to a new report from TrendForce.

The world's 10 biggest fabless chip designers grew their collective revenue to $127.4 billion in 2021, a 48 percent increase over the previous year, said TrendForce's Thursday report, which compiled public revenue disclosures from chip designers that don't have their own manufacturing operations.

Various dynamics led to a shuffling of 2021's rankings from 2020, with Nvidia taking the No. 2 spot from Broadcom, Taiwanese firms Novatek and Realtek rising to sixth and eighth place, respectively, and Himax moving into the No. 10 spot thanks to Dialog Semiconductor getting acquired by chip manufacturer Renesas Electronics.

San Diego, California-based Qualcomm maintained its No. 1 rank, growing revenue 51 percent to $29.3 billion. This was mainly thanks to sales of chips for mobile phones and IoT growing 51 percent and 63 percent year-over-year respectively. It also got an important boost from its radio frequency and automotive chip business. TrendForce only counted revenue from its Qualcomm Technologies division.
