Global Merchant Embedded Computing Market 2007-2020 - Research and Markets

DUBLIN, August 23, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --

Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "The Merchant Embedded Computing Market 2016 Edition" report to their offering.

The Merchant Embedded Computing Market - 2016 Edition report analyzes the performance of the industry from 2007 - 2020. Although there are several hundred companies, most are fairly small in revenue and highly specialized, focusing on specific application segments with unique product requirements.

The report tracks and analyzes five application markets, nine bus architectures and four board functions. Specific trends and issues of the forecast by application, bus architecture and board function are covered in detail in the report. The overall MEC market has fully recovered from the trauma of 2008/2009 economic meltdown and the performance of various market segments, bus architectures, and companies are continuing to find new applications.

Total revenue was nearly $7 billion in 2015, an increase of $2 billion since our last report of 2013. With the worldwide electronics manufacturing market again thriving, the MEC industry is projected to grow at 5.5 percent through 2020 to approximately $9.1 billion.

The MEC report targets five specific application markets: Communications, Industrial, Medical, Military/Aerospace and All Other categories that includes transportation, security, surveillance, point-of-sale/kiosk applications, etc. The Communication wireless segment is being driven by the exploding smart phone and tablet traffic and the four billion devices connected tothe internet. 3G/4G services are where the money is for carriers going forward and the wireline and optical networks are gearing up for upgrades to support the ever increasing traffic.

The Medical segment was hit hard by the healthcare cutbacks but new applications are emerging in diagnostic imaging and surgical hardware. The usually healthy Military/Aerospace segment is now facing arapidly declining defense department budget in the USA. Counter to this, the military is trying to use more ad more electronics for the Internet enabled soldier and robotic weapons.

Each of the nine unique architectures has a different rate of adoption depending on the needs of individual application segments. Overall key trends concern power supply and usage, green technologies and system sizereduction. The new 28- and 32-nm silicon for microprocessors, graphics, DSPs and high integration I/O IV chip packs provide a lot of processing power while greatly reducing power consumption.

These powerful devices are changing the landscape of the embedded board market. High integration silicon and serial buses enable more smaller form factors than in the past and are making many older,parallel bus structures, such as PCI, look obsolete. New bus structures continue to proliferate around the major and long established legacy bus architectures but the number of variances are shrinking
