Global Power Discrete Market 2014-2018: with Infineon Technologies AG, Mitsubishi Electric Corp, and Toshiba Corp. Dominating
M2 - Mon Feb 24, 10:54AM CST
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/vgdfkh/global_power) has announced the addition of the "Global Power Discrete Market 2014-2018" report to their offering. The analysts forecast the Global Power Discrete market to grow at a CAGR of 8.43 percent over the period 2013-2018. One of the key factors contributing to this market growth is the high demand for discrete IGBTs. The Global Power Discrete market has also been witnessing the emerging market for SiC and GaN power semiconductors. However, the low demand due to global economic slowdown could pose a challenge to the growth of this market. Key vendors dominating this space are Fairchild Semiconductor International Inc., Infineon Technologies AG, Mitsubishi Electric Corp, STMicroelectronics N.V., and Toshiba Corp. Other vendors mentioned in the report are Fuji Electric Co. Ltd., International Rectifier, ON Semiconductor Corp., Renesas Electronics Corp., and Vishay Intertechnology Inc. Commenting on the report, an analyst from the team said: The emerging market for SiC and GaN power semiconductors is expected to drive the Global Power Discrete market during the forecast period. SiC power semiconductors comprise SiC MOSFET, SiC JFET, SiC BJT, and SiC Schottky diodes. Currently, SiC is widely used in the development of power semiconductors; however, GaN is a wide bandgap material that offers similar performance benefits to SiC but has greater cost-reduction potential, and the market for GaN power semiconductors is expected to grow rapidly in the coming years. In addition, GaN can be made available using existing silicon substrates, which can enable mass production and reduced cost. Power semiconductors using next-generation materials such as SiC and GaN are characterized to have lower energy loss, high-speed switching, and higher heat resistance than conventionally-used silicon. The adoption of SiC and GaN power semiconductors is expected to witness a significant increase, particularly in the EV/HEV and Industrial Motor Drive segments. According to the report, the growth of the Global Power Discrete market is driven by several factors, including the high demand for discrete IGBTs. Discrete IGBTs enable increased efficiency in electronic devices ranging from consumer electronics to several high power electronic applications. They play a major role in the technological advancement of power electronics.
