Handset Semiconductors - Have We Reached The End Of The Wild Ride?

Product Type: Market Research Report
Published by: In-Stat
Published: August 2001
Product Code: R97-746
Description

The last 12 months has been a roller-coaster ride for both handset component manufacturers and handset manufacturers alike. After years of incredible growth, this year's glut of components, slowing economy, delays in 3G rollouts, and concerns over handset radiation, have all made it a tough one for those in the industry. Still, signs of returning growth are starting to appear, and with 2.5G and 3G just around the corner, long-term prospects look good.

This report analyzes some of the trends and technology in cellular handsets, and translates this into what it means for semiconductor manufacturers. Forecasts include units, average selling prices, and revenue for the following handset semiconductors: Bluetooth, GPS, MPEG-4 decoders/encoders, MP-3 decoders, analog semiconductors, cdmaOne semiconductors, cdma2000 1X semiconductors, GSM semiconductors, GPRS semiconductors, EDGE semiconductors, PDC semiconductors, and W-CDMA semiconductors.
