SAN FRANCISCO—Projected record capital spending by the largest pure-play and IDM foundries in 2011 could result in foundry overcapacity by the end of next year, according to a report by market research firm IC Insights Inc.
Projected foundry capital spending in 2010 and 2011 is projected to total only 5 percent less than foundry spending over the five-year period between 2005 and 2009, according to IC Insights' McClean Report.
