subject: Himfr.com Reports Wireless Communications And Portable Products, Is A Major Market For Smd Crystal O [print this page] As the semiconductor industry turned to the hot field of wireless communications from the PC and portable digital products field, smaller has replaced the lead-type SMD crystal oscillator to become the market mainstream, coupled with the economic crisis in 2008, inventories tight transition time in the supply of tension.
It is optimistic about the market, China's major supplier of Crystal SMD crystal recent years have expanded product lines. The focus of the market aimed at high-end mobile phones and digital products, which have long been monopolized by foreign providers Crystal hot market.
SMD crystal key application markets include wireless communications, portable digital field and the field of automotive electronics, including mobile phones and digital products with the greatest amount. But these markets are booming global market is the supply of SMD crystal unusually fierce. Chinese mobile phone manufacturers in order to reduce the cost of manufacturing and procurement by the OEM board changes to the procurement of components, which will undoubtedly promote the localization of SMD crystal procurement.
It is based on this bright market prospects, the local supplier of SMD crystal such a large scale upgrading of capacity is likely to lead to oversupply, which led to a decline in product prices. While domestic manufacturers have successively volume production, but compared with SMD crystal demand, local supply is still relatively small. And there are still manufactured SMD crystal investment and technological threshold, the short-term supply and demand does not change drastically.
SMD crystal high production costs, so that it does not have the conditions for the substantial decrease in the price, SMD crystal major cost comes from raw materials, IC and equipment depreciation costs, while the main raw materials, IC and equipment are still a few Japanese companies monopoly, the cost is difficult, therefore significantly reduced. Wireless communications and portable digital products are the major market SMD crystal, SMD crystal oscillator is also a driving force toward miniaturization.
Currently the greatest demand on the market for mobile phones 3.2 * 2.5 specifications, SMD crystal, right after the demand for smaller products will continue to increase.
