Facing the increasingly wide application of LED, 3C and 4C products are enormous business opportunities have begun planning using the Taiwan based IC design industry has been quietly build internal R & D team, started to try the LED driver IC market however, temperature, current LED driver IC products there are still many problems to be overcome and patent, to OEM system the industrial chain has not won the important index type cases, therefore, the plant is only a duck in the water phase, and excessive exposure to military.
At present, the Taiwan based IC design industry into the global LED driver IC market the most successful application of advertising is still the main panel, the dyking accumulation, have respectively in North America, South Korea and Mainland China market with a market share of 2, driven by the LED drive IC supplier for nearly 2 years of sales growth is outstanding. Because the LED advertising panel replaced the traditional advertising panel trend has obviously formed, with the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games is to accelerate the construction of LED advertising panel, express the first quarter of 2008 compared with the fourth quarter of 2007 revenue is expected to peak at 2 IC design industry, even slightly for the growth of good news.
Taiwan IC design companies in addition to the original focus on the accumulation and dyking LED advertising panel, recently keen LED driver IC market in the industry, can be divided into joint military and LCD driver IC supplier, and analog IC design companies in 3 populations, among them, the new crystal electric with UMC strong color after investment including, novatek, Shenyang have expression in 2008 will launch the relevant LED driver IC driver IC LCD products; as for suppliers, novatek, orise wonders, because can not be underestimated LED driver IC market growth potential, is planning the layout.
As for the analog IC design industry with more technical advantages, combined with successful cases, the accumulation point, including the current rich, new, Peiheng, simulation science, Jia Tong, have to expand LED driver IC product line, lock the main products to mobile phone LED backlight, notebook computer (NB) LED backlight well, LED lamp backlight applications, however, in addition to mobile phone LED backlight technology for the low level of product, the price is low, Taiwan factory cut movement is smooth, others such as NB and LED lamp backlight application market, is also a learning curve.
Although the global LED driver IC market and LED industry, the existence of patent infringement and other problems, and power plant LED IC driver product line stability and good rate, still need some time to cultivate customer confidence, therefore, 2008 LED driver IC product line performance contribution, probably still difficult to have much surprise, however, in the face of Taiwan the LED industry is growing rapidly, with more and more LED applications, with plans for a number of the NB product line, Taiwan is the world's largest assembly center, Taiwan IC design industry must not be absent.
IC design industry pointed out that, as the Taiwan TFT LCD industry, just a few years by the LCD driver IC market demand, and carries out the Taiwan second and 3 IC design companies novatek and HIMAX, but to the global LED driver IC market annual output value of over ten billion NT strength, the Taiwan based IC design industry as long as it can effectively cope with downstream customers and the foundry industry chain, the launch of the LED module is more competitive, it is for the company's future earnings growth will may be a little help.
