Bright Spots for RF Semiconductors in a Weak Mobile Infrastructure MarketCAMPBELL, Calif., Aug. 11, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Mobile Experts has officially released their 2015 forecast on Semiconductors for RRH. This report provides detailed analysis of semiconductor components, including ASIC, FPGA, SoC, LDMOS, GaN, ADC, DAC, Linearization (DPD), PLL, VCO, and small signal RF devices. The report provides the market study data necessary for business planning, including a five-year forecast for each component in terms of shipments, pricing, and revenue. Transceivers are analyzed for bandwidth, power level, and other factors, and trends in ASICs with programmable cores and FPGA support are analyzed in detail. "The market is weak for macro mobile infrastructure in general, with China Mobile slowing down abruptly this year," explained Joe Madden, Principal Analyst at Mobile Experts. "New networks in India, China, and the United States will pick up some slack but the overall macro spending profile will be flat for the next few years. Despite weakness at the base station level, high order MIMO and Carrier Aggregation are driving new Remote Radio Head requirements which create growth opportunities for a few semiconductor components." "This report identifies the bright spots in the semiconductor market, where wide bandwidth, carrier aggregation, and flexibility create opportunities for semiconductor features. This detailed report provides the block diagrams and cost analysis which illustrates the clear reasons for movement toward new techniques." The Semiconductors for RRH report includes 63 pages of analysis, with mre than 30 diagrams and charts to illustrate the technical trends in the semiconductor market. ASIC, FPGA, SoC, Power Transistors, ADCs, DACs, DPD, PLLs, VCOs, and small signal RF devices are broken out with detailed analysis for shipments, pricing, and market shares.
