Passive component consists of resistor, capacitor, inductor, coils and magnetic components. Strictly speaking, crystal oscillators can also be regarded as a kind of passive component. The difference is that the crystal oscillator is usually produced by professional manufacturers, so it will not be included in this report. Excluding crystal oscillator, the output value of passive components in 2009 approximated US$22 billion, of which capacitor occupied around 60%, the highest rate. And the output value of module products in 2009 took a 20% share. Module products, in particular the LTCC module products, are usually produced by passive component manufacturers. In spite of module products being not the passive component in the strict sense, the production of over 98% module products like Bluetooth module, GPS module and Mobile Wi-Fi module is undertaken by passive component manufacturers, hence, they are classified into passive components. MLCC capacitor and Aluminum capacitor totally takes the lion’s share, surpassing 60% of the total value. When it comes to inductance, no standard products are available because of the high-degree customized level. This provides small enterprises with the opportunities to produce inductors.

Being indispensable to any electronics, passive components determine the quality of electronic products. More than 60% output value of passive components industry is generated by Japanese enterprises, which also take the lead in terms of technology. While the European and American manufacturers are primarily engaged in industrial products. Alternative application dominates Taiwanese manufacturers, whose technologies are sourced from Japanese enterprises. Although Taiwanese manufacturers play a dominant part in resistance sector with low technical content, the Japanese enterprise still remains to rank No.1. Samsung Electro-Mechanics seizes market shares by price slash.

Enterprises engaging in passive components suffered in advance the trough of the electronic industry. Since June 2008, the orders of passive component enterprises have slumped. In the third quarter of 2008 saw the sharpest falls in profit for a majority of passive component enterprises. However, after the sharp price reduction and accrued loss from devaluation of passive component products, the profit of manufacturers grows considerably.

Yet, most Japanese passive component enterprises didn’t intend to expand their production. During the period of economic turndown in 2008, Japanese companies cut their production to some extent. Furthermore, they could not increase the output capacity accordingly when the electronic industry was rapidly warming up. This resulted in short support of passive components in the third quarter of 2009. However, it is expected to regain balance by the third quarter of 2010.
