Power Management Semiconductors Gaining Experiencing Decreased Gains

Author: admin (73 Articles)

The global power management semiconductor market is projected to increase by a double digit margin this year, 13 to 14 percent.  That’s down from the over 41 percent we experienced in 2010.  However, that’s normal given it was a strong recovery year following a recession.  Expansion in this sector is expected due to the demand for more energy efficient battery powered consumer goods.  In addition, we are truly on the brink of the alternative energy era.  Wind, solar, and a revamped auto industry will only add to the increasing revenue.  This year has also seen a shift toward greater integration in power ICs.  Some believe that this factor alone will be enough to change the market dynamics and force the restructuring of large companies in order to stay competitive.
