TAIPEI -- Europe's biggest maker of semiconductor production equipment, ASML, said Wednesday it sees "no signs" of a slowdown in demand as the Dutch supplier fights its own supply constraints to deliver enough equipment to global chipmakers.

ASML CEO Peter Wennink said the company's data indicated there will still be a "significant shortage of semiconductor manufacturing capacity this year and next year."
