This study focuses on the North American market for high voltage resistors for applications greater than 1,000 volts. This niche market segment includes metal oxide, carbon, metal alloy and thick film resistors in axial leaded, SIP network, and chip configurations. The market analysis focuses on demand in the United States, Mexico and Canada for applications in specialty power supplies, medical, defense, laboratory and industrial market encironments. The study establishes NAFTA market value, volume and pricing by voltage range, as well as demand by type and configuration. A competitive analysis of 14 known vendors of high voltage resistors competing in the NAFTA market as well as an opportunity assessment in accordance with the influx of federal monies from the American Reinvestment and Recovery Act of 2009.
