LED lighting to mature custom market is worth looking forward to

The latest market data show that the United States LED bulb retail price has dropped to $8, while the energy-saving fluorescent lamp price is about $5, in this price, consumers tend to choose more energy-saving LED lamp will be further enhanced, is expected to 2015, LED lighting will really have to take off market.

But at the same time, also has the industry believes that the LED into the general lighting market speed may exceed expectations. The general manager of Huarun powtech Co. Ltd. Party movement analysis: "with the sharp decline in prices of LED lighting products, Home Furnishing application market is about to take off, the market is expected to increase to about 30%, but I feel far more than these, especially the application of LED Chinese market, there may be a double the growth. The LED lamp factory price has dropped to $1.38, into the Home Furnishing market has no price barriers, in 2013 there will be some consumers may try to use LED lighting products, if the trial down to good effect, in 2014 there will be a large number of procurement. "

LED lighting is a major market for all semiconductor manufacturers can not be ignored. In the past, due to lack of funds and design capacity, restricting the local chip design company into a certain system change chip market, also led to the standardization of product market competition is fierce, the gross margin decline; and application specific custom chip, that is the class field than the ASIC chip market margin is relatively a lot of high, in 2011 the entire analog chip market size of about $40 billion, of which more than 90% custom chip market. As a result, customized chips for specific applications have become one of the main directions for the development of many chip manufacturers around the world.

The special needs of for LED lighting, need chip manufacturers to have more long-term development planning, and strong design ability, improve their service ability, and further the client, in reality that customers solve problems, provide practical solutions and products.

In addition, funding is also a lot of manufacturers often encounter another bottleneck, this party movement said: "at present, Chinese electronic manufacturing industry competitive strength obvious to people, not only is the production ability, and form a complete set, which for the domestic IC chip industry is very important.

China, is becoming an important global manufacturing base for LED products, LED lighting in the key period towards mature, customized semiconductor chip will provide a solid technical support for the popularization and application of LED lighting products, but also will promote the overall development of Chinese LED industry chain and perfect.
