subject: Aarkstore-hb-led Driver Integrated Circuits Global Market Forecast And Analysis (2009-2016) [print this page] Announce this forecast of global market consumption of Driver Integrated Circuits (ICs) used for High-Brightness Light Emitting Diode (HB-LED) illumination. Values include LED Driver IC (packaged chip only); therefore, the Printed Circuit Board (PCB), circuit board enclosure and miscellaneous discrete components or functions are not included.
The light emitting diode (LED) market, despite exciting innovative devices driven by technological advances and ecological/energy-saving concerns, still face challenges in overcoming performance/price limitations and in attracting widespread consumption. The consumption of LEDs in LCD-TV Backlighting Units, Vehicles, Street Lights, Test, Medical and Science applications, Solid-State Lighting (SSL) general lighting, as well as other applications are discussed in this ElectroniCast market research study report service, is increasing.
The market forecast (2009-2016) data for HB-LED Driver ICs are segmented by the following functions:
Consumption Value (US$, million)
Quantity (number/units)
Average Selling Prices (ASP $, each)
The consumption value is determined by multiplying the number of HB-LED Driver Integrated Circuits (ICs) by the average selling price. The average selling prices are based on the price of the HB-LED Driver Integrated Circuit at the initial factory level. The consumption values are based on the end-user application and the end-user region.
The market data are segmented into the following geographic regions, plus a Global summary:
The Americas (North America, Central and South America)
EMEA (Europe, Middle Eastern countries, plus Africa)
APAC (Asia Pacific)
The global HB-LED Driver IC market is segmented into the following application categories and sub-applications:
Product Level Quantified in this ElectroniCast Study Below, are four levels (or food chain) of HB-LED Driver Integrated Circuits (ICs). For the purposes of this ElectroniCast study, we quantify and provide market forecasts for
Level 3
Level 1 The wafer
Level 2 The bare die
Level 3 The packaged LED Driver IC (chip)
Level 4 LED Driver IC mounted on PCB with external/discrete components
The worldwide marketplace of HB-LED Driver ICs used in the backlighting of TVs and monitors (predominantly LCD-based display screens) were relatively immature in 2009; however, the consumption rate is forecast for very rapid growth. ElectroniCast is projecting that the LED-based LCD-TV marketplace in parts of Europe, the United States and Japan will become saturated faster, as well as embracing the OLED-based TVs and monitors, sooner than other regions. We are forecasting particularly that China will hang onto the LED-based LCD solution for an expanded length of time, especially as long as the OLED solution is provided at a price premium versus the LED-based LCD solution.
