Frost & Sullivan’s expert analysts also provide information on various market dynamics, including market drivers, restraints, and challenges faced by MEMS manufacturers, especially when catering to the mobile phone market. Mobile Phones to Propel Demand for Low-cost Micro-electro-mechanical Systems The mobile phone market presents a significant opportunity for micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) technology due to the large market size. Driven by emerging markets such as India and China, mobile phone shipments are expected to be relatively unaffected by the downturn in the U.S. and European economies. "MEMS components offer benefits that can leverage the low-cost, high-volume demand in the mobile phone market," says the analyst of the research. "Therefore, MEMS manufacturers are targeting the mobile phone sector as the next killer application for devices such as microphones, accelerometers, and radio frequency (RF) filters." MEMS Benefits Intensify Cell Phone Market Adoption Due to continuous enhancements in mobile phone features, board space is at a premium and design teams have to work hard to reduce the footprints of components. Ultra thin handsets are in high demand making component height a crucial factor. "MEMS microphones are well-suited for cell phone applications due to their small sizes and immunity to interference," says the analyst. "MEMS technology has the ability to bring down the overall size of the product." MEMS microphones have started replacing traditional electret condenser microphones (ECMs) as a standard component in cell phones. MEMS accelerometers enable hard disk drive protection, power management, and motion-sensing in mobile handsets. MEMS RF filters have a higher quality factor and lower insertion losses than conventional surface acoustic wave (SAW) filters. These features make them highly desirable in mobile phones. |
