DECISION analyze the market demand for passive and electromechanical components

This survey results are proposed in a database which contain the market data for passive and electromechanicals components (discrete, interface, interconnect product, etc...)
This survey is the result of ten year of economics research and market analysis.

Definition
- Two time a year DECISION conduct a market demand for passive and interconnection components (discrete, interface, electromechanical, etc...)
- This component market is made of height components type groups :
- PCBs - printed circuit boards
- Connectors
- Hybrid circuits / MCM
- Industrial Switches & keyboards
- Magnetic components
- Capacitors
- Resistors
- Piezo, crystal, filters
- The database gave a component demand drawn up in correlation with the electronics production. This is the approach allows to evaluate a components end-users market : the market studied by DECISION is the ``passive and interconnection components`` contents of product manufactured by the electronics industry.
- Market datas are the ``passive and interconnection`` component consumption of the components end-users, this is the ``passive and interconnection`` component part in the electronics products.
- Forecasts are made a current prices and the mix-product evolutions as well as component and equipment prices developments are taken into account.
- The time period is years 2003 to 2009:

Methodology
- data analysis
- industry interviews
- technological forecasting model :
A complete approach
- Electronics production by products
- The first steep is an enquiry on production evolution which is detailed by products.
- A scenario is made based on: past year balance sheet, current year tendencies, and probable future evolutions.
Passive and interconnection contents of the studied products
- For each electronic products its ``passive and interconnection`` contents is detailed by component type
- By examining functions, prices, and technological trend the ``passive and interconnection`` contents possible evolution is forecasted.

Output
- The Database is delivered on CD-ROM in Excel Spreadsheet format.
- Excel format is a useful solution : its make you enable to do your own simulations, estimates or calculations and allows you to prepare your own personal graphs and charts.
- You can choose your entry point by component type to find DECISION's historical data and forecasts.
All data are given in Euros.
Market database with forecast, market data in euros, figures given in excel spreadsheet with a main technological trends papernote. No split by countries except China and Japan. Market is given for each component type by application end-user markets.
