Global MEMS/Microsystems Markets and OpportunitiesPublished by: Yole Developpement Published: Aug. 1, 2008 Table of Contents
AbstractBurgeoning demand for a host of new products enabled by MEMS devices means the sector will likely see a healthy increase this year despite any general semiconductor slowdown, and will remain on track to maintain its 17% average growth for the next five years.With hit consumer applications like the Wii and iPhone in high volume production— and sparking a jump in interest from other consumer gear designers in similar new MEMS-based features—MEMS device production hit 2 billion units in 2007, and looks to jump 25% to 2.5 billion in 2008. But these consumer market volumes bring consumer price pressures as well, holding total MEMS revenue growth to 14% this year. As an increasing number of these new consumer designs ramp volume production, revenue growth will accelerate to18% -19% in 2010-2012, even with the price pressure. By 2012, MEMS makers will be shipping 8.1 billion units a year, worth some $15.5 billion—and nearly half that market, or some $7.3 billion worth, will be consumer devices. Major market drivers will include silicon microphones, micro displays, RF MEMS and even microfluidics for biomedical applications. RF MEMS and silicon microphones alone will account for more than 45% of unit demand from 2011. Get Full Details About This Report >> |
