TechNavio recognizes the following companies as the key players in the Global Power Transistor Market: Fairchild Semiconductor International Inc., Infineon Technologies AG, International Rectifier, Mitsubishi Electric Corp., STMicroelectronics N.V., Texas Instruments Inc., and Toshiba Corp.
Commenting on the report, an analyst from TechNavio’s team said: “The availability of multiple features on a single platform is an emerging trend being witnessed in the market. This is mainly due to the rapid technological developments seen in various electronic devices. Industries that extensively use power transistors such as Computing, Networking and Telecom, and Consumer Electronics are driving the need for multiple features on a single platform. These devices mainly use a combination of a power-integrated circuit with MOSFETs either as a monolithic device or as a system in a package. Since many computers, networking, and telecom equipment have board space restrictions, such integration enables manufacturers to reduce board space. Moreover, integration not only minimizes voltage fluctuation in the integrated device, but also allows switching at a higher speed. Thus, technological convergence is expected to have a positive influence on the growth of the Global Power Transistor market during the forecast period.”
According to the report, one of the major drivers in this market is the increasing demand for power-efficient electronic products. Power transistors improve switch performance and efficiency while enhancing system reliability and robustness, thereby increasing the power efficiency of electronic products.
Further, the report states that one of the major challenges in this market is the low demand due to the global economic slowdown. The demand for power transistors is dependent on the growth of various sectors including Automotive, Consumer Electronics, Power and Energy Management, among others. In recent years, the Consumer Electronics sector has been witnessing a slowdown because of several factors such as sluggish economic recovery in the US, earthquakes and tsunamis in Japan, and the Eurozone debt crisis.
The study was conducted using an objective combination of primary and secondary information including inputs from key participants in the industry. The report contains a comprehensive market and vendor landscape in addition to a SWOT analysis of the key vendors.
