DC-DC Converter Modules: North America Market Forecasts
Darnell Group, Aug 2005, Pages: 52
This Power Paper provides the quantitative North America forecasts and accompanying qualitative discussion from the Eight Edition of our 'DC-DC Converter Modules: Global Market Forecasts and Competitive Environment' market study. This Power Paper includes 23 Tables and 23 Graphs. Wattage, Input Voltage, Output Voltage, Product Type and Application forecasts are provided in dollars, units and average selling prices. Amperage and Design Type forecasts are provided in dollars.
Scope
This report encompasses the following areas:
(1) Estimates are provided for the potential North America market for dc-dc converters in units, dollars and pricing from 2005 to 2010, by application, wattage, input and output voltage and product type. Estimates are given for the worldwide dc-dc converter market in dollars, by low-wattage power versus high-wattage power, design type and amperage.
(2) Market forecasts are given for the following application segments: Communications, Computers, Industrial, and Military/Aerospace. Power level forecasts include Wattage
(Less than 50 Watt segments: 500W); Amperage (100Amps); Input Voltage (3.3V, 5V, 12V, 24V, 48V, 270V+); Output Voltage (1.0V and Below, 1.5V, 2.5V, 3.3V, 5V, >5V). In addition, forecasts are provided for Isolated vs. Nonisolated converters and Custom vs. Standard products.
Methodology
The data presented in this report are derived from a comprehensive study of the worldwide dc-dc converter market. The detailed forecasts are based on primary data gathered in discussions with major users of dc-dc converters in all regions of the world. All OEM consumption data were gathered on a confidential basis. These consumption data were supplemented with a few discussions with major makers of dc-dc converters. It should be emphasized that the input into this study was the result of firsthand discussions with OEM users of dc-dc converters. The conversations with dc-dc converter makers were limited and secondary in importance in the preparation of this report. Of greater importance were discussions with makers of key system components, such as advanced microprocessors, which are primary drivers of key trends in the dc-dc converter market.
Primary data were obtained using 'open questionnaires.' A combination of telephone and in-person interviews were conducted. In-person interviews were conducted either in the plant where the individual works or at various trade shows. The interviews conducted at trade shows were typically performed in a more informal atmosphere and were generally very successful in gathering good quantities of hard data and insights from the individuals being interviewed. All interviews conducted in the course of this research were performed on a confidential basis. The data were used in combination with the responses from all other respondents.
The primary and secondary research included all possible major application areas for dc-dc converters. The data-gathering methodology included primary research and data collection in all regions worldwide and was not limited in any way to North America. Secondary research was performed using all available published sources including, but not limited to, nonproprietary, previously performed and related work by us, all available trade journals, proceedings from related trade conferences, previous industry studies, annual reports, 10Ks, advertising, product literature, and so on.
