Electronic components are the backbone of industries such as computers, telecommunications, consumer electronics, and many others.  Electronic components form parts of electronic circuitry and are used or manufactured in the field of electronics—the study of electrical devices used for controlling electrically charged particles or the flow of electrons to execute any electrical operation.

Electronic components are also increasingly used in industries such as automotive, medical electronics, aerospace, and defense.  Growth in electronic components would be characterized by the development of technologies and innovations in the electronic industry.  Each sector is driven by a key trend that stimulates the growth of that industry.  The demand in the telecommunications industry is characterized by the expansion of the communications network across the world.  The increasing adoption and transition toward 3G/4G technologies and increasing bandwidth in Internet communication have stirred the need for electronic devices, thereby leading to the growth of electronic components.

In the consumer electronics sector, the growing acceptance and increasing usage of digital entertainment are found to be widespread across the globe.  In addition, consumer products such as digital cameras, portable music players, gaming consoles, and so on have contributed to the growth of electronic products industry.  Development in the area of personal computers such as desktop PCs and laptops has generated a major share of growth in the electronics industry.  With new software being introduced regularly, a compatible system to run the software is required.  This leads to innovation of new processors and other system components.  In the automotive industry, greater levels of adoption of electronic components such as global positioning system (GPS) enhanced sound systems, car entertainment, and parking and drive assistant systems lead to the increasing growth of the electronic industry.  Miniaturization and increased functionality with greater performance are the key factors that drive the electronic components market in the aerospace and defense industry.  In the field of medical electronics there is a significant increase of electronic equipments in clinics and hospitals for early detection of health-related issues and for effective treatments and cures.  Introduction of sophisticated electronic components has rapidly increased the range of end-user markets.  Additionally, the use of passive components by integrated circuits is also increasing.  On an average, each integrated circuit has 20 passive components, and increasing usage of passives by integrated circuits is expected to continue.   

This report will also study the global market for the various passive and interconnecting electronic components and applications of these components.  The markets for these components and their applications have become very competitive, and this report will look into the nature of the competition and the region-wide breakdown of these markets.

REPORT HIGHLIGHTS

• The global market for passive and other interconnecting electronic components is expected to reach $118.6 billion in 2011 and $136 billion in 2012. It will further grow to $213.5 billion by 2017, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of   9.4% between 2012 and 2017.
• The total value of the Asia-Pacific segment for passive and interconnecting electronic components is expected to increase from $76.6 billion in 2012 to $131.5 billion in 2017, with a CAGR of 11.4% for the 5-year period from 2012 to 2017.
• The total value of the European segment is estimated to approach $22.4 billion in 2012 and $30.2 billion in 2017, a CAGR of 6.2% between 2012 and 2017.
