  • The Blu-ray Argument: Players & Recorders

    The recession of 2008 and 2009 impacted the entire semiconductor industry, including a relatively new market for chips: Blu-ray Players. A fledgling technology that had just defeated the HD-DVD format in 2008, Blu-ray had a difficult time gaining traction in its early years due to limited Blu-ray disc content and a high ASP compared to DVD Players.

  • Digital Television: To 2D or 3D?

    To go 2D or 3D, that is the question. Semico’s new Digital Television report takes a close look at the current trends influencing flat-panel displays, CRTs, and RP TVs across the world with a regional break-out that includes the Americas, Asia Pacific, China, Europe, and Japan.

    Semico expects the DTV market to grow to 290 million units in 2014, a CAGR of 6.3%. Not bad for a mature market that is at the center of the home entertainment theater. This report has implications not only for DTV, but for Blu-ray, set-top boxes, audio equipment, etc.

  • E-readers: Reader Me This, Reader Me That

    The E-reader is a highly talked about device that is picking up steam in the consumer industry. While developed in the late 90s, they have only recently become popular, with the release of Amazon's Kindle and more recently, Barnes and Noble's nook. Semico expects a 66% CAGR between 2009 and 2013 as E-readers grow from 3.7 million units to approximately 28 million units.

  • Automotive Systems: Adaptive Braking, No Stopping Its Growth!

    Semiconductor revenues for adaptive braking systems will increase at a CAGR of more than 100% over the next five years, a growth opportunity that will continue even through the current recession. Adaptive braking systems sense impending collisions and automatically apply a car’s brakes to prevent an accident. They are in use now only on high-end passenger cars, but the costs will come down until they become standard equipment even on small, economy cars.
