Global Rectifiers Market 2014-2018 Featruing Key Players: ON Semiconductor, Shindengen Electric Manufacturing Co. Ltd, STMicroelectronics N.V. & Vishay Intertechnology Inc.
M2 - Thu Jul 17, 10:21AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/jtr5pj/global_rectifiers) has announced the addition of the "Global Rectifiers Market 2014-2018" report to their offering. One of the major drivers is the use of rectifiers in power supplies. Power supplies are used for applications such as charging devices in computers, cellphones, electronic equipment, and electronic vehicles. The increasing demand for electronic gadgets worldwide is expected to fuel the demand for power supplies further. This, in turn, is expected to have an impact on the demand for rectifiers in DC power supplies. Further, the report states that the cyclical nature of the Semiconductor industry is one of the major challenges in the market. Rectifier manufactures depend on OEMs, which, in turn, depend on end-users. This often leads to a demand-supply gap and an inventory pile-up. Hence, any demand fluctuations from end-users indirectly affects rectifier manufacturers. The study was conducted using an objective combination of primary and secondary information including inputs from key participants in the industry. The report contains a comprehensive market and vendor landscape in addition to a SWOT analysis of the key vendors. Key Vendors - ON Semiconductor Corp. - Shindengen Electric Manufacturing Co. Ltd - STMicroelectronics N.V. - Vishay Intertechnology Inc. Other Prominent Vendors - Alpha and Omega Semiconductor Ltd - Analog Devices Inc. - Bourns Inc. - Diode Inc.

Passenger Car Sensors Market (Application, Sensor Type & Geography) - Trends & Forecast to 2019
M2 - Thu Jul 17, 6:17AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/b6jmvb/passenger_car) has announced the addition of the "Passenger Car Sensors Market by Application, by Sensor Type & by Geography - Trends & Forecast to 2019" report to their offering. Passenger car sensors market is estimated to reach $146.5 billion by the year 2019. Considering the driving efficiency, stringent emission norms, safety and comfort factors, passenger car sensors have become an integral part playing a vital role in the vehicle. Advancements in the area include tire pressure monitoring systems, occupant detection, electronic stability control, heating and ventilation air conditioning, advanced driver assistance systems and others. The growing demand has led to the growth of this market which in turn is responsible for technological advancements in this area. Sensors are used from engine to exhaust system of the vehicle. Majorly, sensors are used in Powertrain/Drivetrain, chassis, and body control where they monitor temperature, pressure, voltages/currents, vacuum, and other such parameters. The global vehicle production is expected to grow at a CAGR of 7.5% by 2020, thus stimulating the growth of the passenger car sensors markets. In addition to this, the Government regulations for safety and emissions have also supported the growth of this market. In order to meet the stringent norms and regulations for safety and emissions, the sensor manufacturers are striving hard and coming up with a number of technological advancements in electronic stability control and anti-lock braking systems such as deployment of crash avoidance technology. This technology along with others is expected to be a part of almost all the vehicles in matured markets of the U.S. & Europe by 2020. Owing to the customers demand for safety and comfort, the implementation of new technological concept of Advanced Driver Assist system (ADAS) has aided in boosting the safety and drivability factor by mitigating the effects of a driver's flaws, where sensors have played an important role. This system also acts as a co-driver system providing real time advice, warnings, and instructions to the drivers in order to abide the traffic safety norms. These wide ranges of advantages offered by ADAS have created a positive impact on the sensor markets and boosted its use in the vehicles. Scope Sensor type - Pressure - Temperature - NOX/O2 - Speed - Position Application type - Powertrain/drivetrain - Exhaust - Iinterior/Comfort - Driver assistance system - Body control Key Topics Covered: 1 Introduction 2 Executive Summary 3 Premium Insights 4 Market Overview 5 Technology Overview 6 Automotive Sensors Market, By Sensor Type 7 Automotive Sensor Market, By Applications 8 Automotive Sensors Market, By Geography 9 Competitive Landscape 10 Company Profiles - Allegro Microsystems, LLC - Analog Devices, Inc. - CTS Corporation - Continental AG - Delphi Automotive PLC - Denso Corporation - Elmos Semiconductor AG - Infineon Technologies AG - Robert Bosch GMBH - TRW Automotive Holdings Corp.
