Demands from new and emerging markets in Asia and Europe are likely to boost growth.

This study shows that the Global Market for Power Semiconductor accounts for 4.5 percent of the total semiconductor sales, worldwide. Inspite of the dip in sales during the year 2008, demand has been on the rise and is expected to continue for the next three years. There has been a steep rise in the sale of consumer electronics, particularly the mobile and communication segments. This has increased the demand for power electronic components worldwide. In addition, the demand for new and improved applications in the industrial market is on the rise. All this has lead to an increase in demand for discrete components.

The components covered are metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (MOSFET), insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT), bipolar junction transistor (BJT), thyristors, and power rectifiers.

Regions Covered

- North America
- Europe
- Japan
- Emerging Markets

Unit

- The power semiconductors sale is calculated in terms of Billions sold.

Price

- Revenues are measured in million dollars, with the price per unit (pu) in U.S. dollars.
  Note: Africa and Latin America are not included in this study
