TechNavio recognizes the following companies as the key players in the Global Thick Film Devices Market: GE Sensing and Inspection Technologies Pty Ltd., Panasonic Corp., Samsung Electro-Mechanics Co. Ltd., and Sharp Corp.
Commenting on the report, an analyst from TechNavio’s team said: “One of the main trends witnessed in the Global Thick Film Devices market is the increasing focus on energy management. The governments in various countries have introduced stringent regulations on power consumption, forcing manufacturers to reduce energy consumption. The need to reduce power consumption has driven many organizations to adopt industrial microcontrollers. The emphasis on energy management was imposed by governments to ensure environmental protection, energy efficiency, and sustainable resource management. Microcontrollers are extensively used in power management applications since they are capable of reducing the power usage of various types of equipment used in the Industrial sector. These factors are likely to enhance the demand for microcontrollers, in which thick film technology is used.”
According to the report, one of the main factors driving the market is the technological advancements in semiconductor space. The main reason for such technological advancements is the increasing demand for digitization of consumer electronics.
Further, the report states that one of the main challenges is the seasonality in demand. Any demand fluctuation in the supply side, due to the bull-whip effect, would cause fluctuations in the supply chain side, which will lead to high inventory levels.
