As of November 2014, sales growth was flat in the bare printed circuit board (PCB) and electronics manufacturing services (EMS) segments of the electronics industry, in sharp contrast to semiconductor sales that continued to skyrocket. U.S. new orders for electronics products, which tend to lead sales by about one month, continued to sag. IPC’s PCB book-to-bill ratio, which normally leads PCB sales by three to six months, climbed further to 1.06 in November after hovering around 1.00 during most of 2014. Ratios above parity (1.00) indicate greater demand than supply, which may be a precursor of strengthening sales growth in…

While LTE and LTE-Advanced deployments are still underway, wireless carriers and vendors have already embarked on R&D initiatives to develop so-called “5G” technology, with a vision of commercialization by 2020. 5G is essentially a revolutionary paradigm shift in wireless networking to support the throughput, latency, and scalability requirements of future use cases such as extreme bandwidth augmented reality applications and connectivity management for billions of M2M (Machine to Machine) devices. Although 5G is yet to be standardized, some of the collectively accepted attributes of the technology include new air interface transmission schemes, new spectrum bands, spectrum aggregation, Massive MIMO, beamforming,…

ELECTRONICS.CA PUBLICATIONS announces the availability of a new report entitled “Optical Network Components: Global Markets”.  This study reveals that the ongoing migration from lower speed to higher speed connections is providing optical network component suppliers with a recurring revenue stream. Optical network semiconductors will witness an increase from $6.4 billion in 2014 to $7.6 billion in 2019, registering a 3.2% rise in compound annual growth rate (CAGR). The result is that optic components will continue to be an area of prime interest to silicon suppliers.

ELECTRONICS.CA PUBLICATIONS announces the availability of a new report entitled “Electronic Thermal Management – Technologies, Materials, Devices, New Developments, Industry Structure and Global Markets”. According to this study, the worldwide market for thermal management products is predicted to grow from about $8.8 billion in 2013 to $15.56 billion by 2018, at an average annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.1%.

The distributed fiber optic sensor market stood at $585 million in 2013. The market was projected to be $1.5 billion in 2018 with 70% associated with the oil and gas segments. The sudden and unexpected drop in oil prices will negatively impact the market with the overall forecast falling short of the $1.5 billion forecast according to an updated and revised market survey report conducted by the Photonic Sensor Consortium and offered by Electronics.ca Publications. The long term picture is still optimistic, but a short term contraction is likely.

According to a new market research report “Crystal Oscillator Market – Global Forecast to 2020″, the total Crystal Oscillator Market is expected to reach nearly $3.2 Billion by 2020, growing at a CAGR of 5% from 2014 to 2020. Crystal Oscillator Market is expected to experience healthy growth in some major applications such as telecom & networking and consumer electronics due to the evolution in the smart phones and tablet market and deployment of the advanced wireless technologies such as 3G, 4G, and LTE.
