Overview
The Houston Market
Greater Houston's semiconductor cluster is smaller than Austin's Silicon Hills or the Texas Instruments-anchored Dallas-Fort Worth (DFW) cluster, and it is built around the region's energy, industrial and aerospace base. Memory chip maker SK Hynix has Houston operations, and distributors, design offices and specialty chip suppliers serve the metro's industrial customers. Houston semiconductor work centers on application-specific chips, embedded systems for industrial automation, and specialty manufacturing, while leading-edge chip production is concentrated in the Austin and DFW metros.
Specialty chip demand in Houston comes from petrochemical plant controls, oil and gas supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems, refinery process control, industrial automation and aerospace electronics.
