TechNavio recognizes the following companies as the key players in the Global GaAs Device Market: Avago Technologies Ltd., RF Micro Devices Inc., Skyworks Solutions Inc., and TriQuint Semiconductor Inc.
Commenting on the report, an analyst from TechNavio’s team said: “One of the major trends being witnessed in the Global GaAs Device market is the increased collaboration among the GaAs device manufacturers. Through strategic alliances, collaborations, mergers, and acquisitions, the market vendors are expected to expand their business, improve their respective market shares, and gain access to new technologies. These collaborations also aid in offering better solutions and the latest technologies to customers. For instance, RFMD completed its acquisition of Amalfi Semiconductor Inc. and Skyworks acquired Advanced AnaIogic Technologies Inc., both in 2012. Thus, the collaboration among vendors is expected to have a positive impact on the growth of the market during the forecast period.”
According to the report,one of the major drivers in this market is the increasing adoption of smartphones worldwide. Smartphones are the major end-user segment for GaAs devices. In recent years, the market has witnessed increasing adoption of smartphones, especially in emerging countries such as China and India, due to the dramatic decline in their prices. With the increasing adoption of smartphones, there is high demand for GaAs devices.
Further, the report states that one of the major challenges in this market is the increasing availability of alternative devices. In recent years, GaN, SiGe, LDMOS, and CMOS devices have emerged as ideal alternatives to GaAs devices, thereby posing a threat to the market vendors.
