Description

This report presents a detailed analysis of the cell-based, customer-specific embedded microprocessor (processor) market. That is to say, designs that include at least one pre-defined microprocessor block (or core), along with other functions, such as other memory, logic and/or analog, using a cell-based design approach. This market will see its' worldwide revenues grow from $3,890.1 million last year, which was down 33.4% from 2000, to $8,628.6 million by the year 2006. This translates to a compound annual growth rate, 2001-2006, of 17.3%.

End-use consumption of products designed using this technology is examined in detail by major end-use market; Electronic Data Processing (EDP), communications, consumer, industrial, military and automotive, as well as by major second-level end-use application, such as networks, basestations, servers, et cetera. Geographic consumption for each of the four major regions, The Americas, Europe, Japan and Asia Pacific is also explored, as are processor architecture, operating voltage, packaging and mixed-signal trends.

Two other areas analyzed in this report relate to the companies that would utilize embedded processor technology in future high-level designs, as well as who are the suppliers, or to be more correct, the licensees of processor cores, be they soft or hard.
