Dublin, Nov. 21, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/vl5g3j/global_sic) has announced the addition of the "Global SiC Semiconductor Devices Market 2012-2016" report to their offering.
One of the key factors contributing to this market growth is the
High Demand of SiC in industrial applications. The Global SiC
Semiconductor Devices market has also been witnessing rapid
technological advancement. However, the fluctuations in demand and
supply could pose a challenge to the growth of this market.
The key vendors dominating this market space are Cree Inc., GeneSiC
Semiconductor Inc, Infineon Technologies AG., and ROHM
Semiconductor.
Commenting on the report, an analyst from TechNavio's Hardware team
said: ''Rapid technological advancement is a fast-growing trend in
the Global Silicon carbide (SiC) Semiconductor Devices market. The
overall technological advancement in the Electronics industry is
growing at a faster rate, which has set the trends for
technological advancement in SiC semiconductor devices. The
fast-growing demands and changing end-user preferences over SiC
semiconductor devices is leading to the trend of rapid
technological advancement. Vendors need to continuously upgrade the
technology and also implement new technologies.''
According to the report, the high demand for SiC semiconductors in
industrial applications is one of the major growth drivers in the
Global SiC
Semiconductor Devices market. Some of the industrial
applications where SiC semiconductor usage is generating more
interest for the vendors are in motor control and power conversion
devices. This interest is mainly because of the low power loss
properties of SiC semiconductors, which enhances the power
conversion efficiency of electronic devices and also reduces carbon
dioxide emissions. These benefits have replaced the usage of
silicon in the above-mentioned applications. Furthermore, the
application of SiC semiconductors has significantly reduced the
size and weight of motors and power devices.
