Capacitors Market Reports & Publications

This is a market research analysis that covers the $10 billion global market for ceramic capacitors by type and configuration. The market research analysis analyzes historical trends in terms of global consumption value, volume and pricing for ceramic capacitors and forecasts their global consumption to 2017.  Market segmentation is broken down into demand by configuration- MLCC, SLC,, MLC axial , MLC radial and chip array; demand by performance (X7R, X5R, Y5V, NPO, X8R Other,); demand by MLCC case size (01005, 0201, 0402, 0603, 0805, 1206, 1210 and above); demand by world region and key consuming country (China, Japan, Germany, USA, Korea, Singapore, Mexico, Philippines, Malaysia, Brazil).  Market shares are given on a year-over-year basis for the top 23 manufacturers from 2008-2012; and quarterly market shares are also given for the top tier manufacturers.  Market shares are also assessed by world region.  Ceramic capacitor consumption volume in key end products is also addressed, including handsets, notebooks, desktop computers, tablets and ultrabooks, TV sets, automobiles, other consumer AV equipment and industrial and specialty electronics is also addressed; as is consumption by end-use market segment, including wireless telecommunications, computing, consumer AV, automobiles, power supplies, telecom infrastructure, defense electronics, medical electronics, lighting ballasts, instrumentation and  oil and gas electronics.  Additional market breakdowns are given for high capacitance MLCC versus picofarad capacitors.  A technology overview and technology trend assessment, as well as a segment on costs to produce ceramic capacitors is also covered.  Forecasts based upon type, configuration, capacitance, performance, end-use market segment and key consuming country to 2017.  ISBN # 1-893211-25-8 (Published February 2012, 177 pages, 99 Figures).

This study forecasts the market value, volume and pricing for motor run capacitors between 2011 and 2016 amidst new government legislation impacting motor efficiency.  The study breaks out the value and volume of motor run capacitors by type, including round metal case, overall metal case, round plastic case, square plastic box, and radial leaded ultra-small motor run capacitors., and the technology and certifications and approvals governing motor run capacitors in various regions and countries around the world.  The study breaks down competition in motor run capacitors based upon capacitance value, voltage rating, capacitor construction and configuration; type of dielectric, type of dielectric fluid, single verses dual construction, and by AC voltage rating.  The study also looks at the customer base in permanent split capacitor and other single phase motors on a global basis and addresses the turbulent changes in the motor markets now underway.   The study looks at the market drivers behind changes in the market driven by the need for greater efficiency in HVAC, refrigeration, ceiling fan, pumps and other specialty motor markets that drive demand for motor run capacitors.  The study also addresses the costs to produce for motor run capacitors, including variable and fixed costs, and breaks out raw material costs based upon dielectric, can, fluid, tabs, lugs and leads and end seals.  The study also addresses the supply chain for metallized polypropylene, the primary dielectric consumed in motor run capacitors. Market shares for the top producers of motor run capacitors are estimated, and 49 individual manufacturers of motor run capacitors are identified around the globe.  Forecasts to 2016 are given based upon capacitor type and configuration.  A Paumanok Group special report published December 2011- 81 Pages.  Please review the table of contents and sample pages to get a complete view of this new and important market study.
