Share of (discrete) semiconductor sales through distributors 2016, by region
This statistic depicts the share of semiconductors and discrete semiconductors that are sold through distributors, by select region, as of 2016. At that time, 65 percent of discrete semiconductors sold in China and Taiwan were sold through distributors. Sales through distribution channels were particularly practical for smaller companies (i.e., companies with revenues of less than 400 million U.S. dollars).
