World Discrete Diode Markets
Frost & Sullivan, Jan 2002
Surplus, Price Erosion Affect Participant Strategies
After a period of phenomenal growth due to booming telecommunications
and data communications industries, world markets for diodes
experienced reduced growth in 2001. An economic downturn also
weakened sales from many application sectors, leaving suppliers with large
surplus inventories. The result could be further erosion of prices that force
manufacturers to redirect their business strategies.
This Frost & Sullivan research analyzes the markets for major types of
discrete diodes, including small signal, zener, transient protection, radio
frequency (RF), and microwave diodes. By pinpointing industry challenges and
presenting expert forecasts, this study gives its users a comprehensive guide
to the future of the field.
Enhanced Diode Functionality Boosts Demand from Key
Market Sectors
Strong demand for multiple diodes in a single package offer suppliers
important opportunities, says the author of this study. Despite an overall
decrease, multiple diode solutions are appealing to customers because they
save assembly time, reduce costs, and improve reliability over individually
packaged diodes. Major suppliers are already responding to this trend by
offering diode arrays, including schottky, zeners, and transient voltage
suppressor devices.
At the same time, the multiplication of passive electronic components in
automobiles will drive demand for diodes. Harsh conditions that vehicles
routinely experience necessitate protection of sensitive electronic circuits,
explains the analyst. This study, which tracks demand trends and identifies
up-and-coming market opportunities, will enable your company to capitalize
on key growth areas.
Integrated Circuits Threaten to Usurp Diode Market Share
The trend toward integrated circuits is a serious threat to discrete diodes,
says the author. As telecommunications companies increasingly use integrated
circuits and chip-on-board technologies in wireless handsets and personal
digital assistants, demand for diodes from this major sector could diminish.
However, high-frequency diode solutions, including schottky, varactor, and pin
diodes, are likely to remain unaffected by this trend, says the author. This
study examines technology trends and assesses their impact on the
marketplace. Given such a privileged view of the industry, your firm will be
poised to optimize its business plan and maximize profits.
