2009 performance of well-being of Chinas industrial electronics markets mixed

According to iSuppli, while Chinas industrial electronic equipment industry is difficult to get rid of the impact of global recession, but because of the industry served by a variety of applications, expected in 2009 will continue to maintain overall growth.

ISuppli forecasts that Chinas industry in 2009 the overall turnover of electronic equipment market will reach 40.9 billion U.S. dollars, up 8.9% compared to 2008. The growth rate is lower than in 2008, highlighted the negative impact of global recession.

Industrial electronics is the most diverse areas of the economy. According to iSupplis definition, industrial electronics, including: medical electronics, manufacturing automation, semiconductor manufacturing, test and AD96687BP datasheet and measurement, security systems, military and AD96687BP price and civil aviation applications. With such a wide range of applications, industrial electronics will not be any single little impact on the poor market conditions.

For the industrial electronics market in China in 2009 for most areas, but growth rate will be lower than in 2008. However, the 2009 semiconductor manufacturing equipment sub-sectors turnover will decline further in 2008.

Security equipment in 2008 and AD96687BP suppliers and the overall turnover of industrial equipment, 46.7%, industrial electronic equipment industry is the largest area, is expected to grow 10.2% this year to 193 billion U.S. dollars. This area is to promote the growth of Chinas industrial electronics market is one of the most important force.

From 2007 to 2013, industrial electronic equipment in all areas will have different performance.

Slowdown will be the largest degree of manufacturing automation. Although Chinese factories eager to upgrade the manufacturing system in 2006 and 2007, ignited the manufacturing automation market, but the recent global financial crisis doused the enthusiasm of the factory purchase of new equipment. This led to growth in manufacturing automation market turnover in 2008 dropped to 13.9%, less than 28.9% in 2007. By 2011, annual growth rate will slow to 8.4%.

The overall situation and industrial electronic devices and other components sub-sectors compared to the impact of economic downturn for the semiconductor market more seriously. Chinas industrial electronics, iSupplis semiconductor market for the most pessimistic forecasts had thought that the market in 2009 spending will be down to 25 billion U.S. dollars, down 9.9% in 2008. But given Chinas strong government regulatory capacity, the market situation may not be as bad as the first concern.

If the second half of the first three months of this year to maintain the positive effects of government stimulus, while in 2009 the Chinese consumer electronics market, semiconductor industry sales may reach 2.7 billion, only 2.1% less than in 2008.

Overall semiconductor sales decline is not only a result of falling demand, but also the result of selling prices. The DSP and microcontroller-based device MCU market, 2009 will be reduced to $ 83,000,000, down 11% compared to 2008.

Microchip and Atmel MCU major supplier of industrial electronics will face future challenges. But the challenge is not without opportunities. STMicroelectronics successfully wishful China National Petroleum Corporation (CNPC), launched the largest automatic meter reading (AMR) project in order to get the design is expected within three years the project will enter about 100 million households.

From the amount of view, the local industrial electronic equipment manufacturers in Chinas semiconductor consumption is less than their foreign peers, because the former tend to use cheaper and less complex semiconductors. However, despite the local Chinese manufacturers of semiconductor consumption in China is currently operating in the multinational companies than the relatively small, but as the number of domestic enterprises and expanding the scale of local manufacturers of semiconductor consumption will grow steadily.

ISuppli predicts that by 2013, more than 51% of the semiconductor electronics companies will be bought by local industries.
