Information Network: DSP Market
"The worldwide DSP market will increase from $1.17B in 1991 to $4.04B
in 1996. This represents a compound annual growth rate of 28.1%. The
U.S. dominates the DSP market: it consumed 47.2% of world production
in 1991. However, this figure will decrease to 44.6% by 1996; not
because the U.S. is steering away from DSP, but because of the
maturing of the technological sophistication of the other countries.
Japan will increase from 27.2% in 1991 to 29.8% in 1996.
`There are seven primary applications for DSP products and systems:
Voice/Speech, Image/Graphics, Instrumentation, Remote Sensing,
Process Control, Testing/Inspection and Computer Design. The largest
growth will be in Image/Graphics, exhibiting a CAGR of 31.8% from
sales of $315M in 1991 to $1,054M in 1996. This sector will grow from
26.9% of the market in 1991 to 31.0% in 1996.
`There are five major markets for DSP products and systems:
Communications, Government & Military, Science & Engineering,
Industrial and Consumer. We expect the sales distribution among
these markets to become fairly even over time. The largest growth
will be exhibited by the consumer sector, growing from sales of
$117M in 1991 to $628M in 1996--a CAGR of 39.9%. Revenues will
increase from 10.0% of the market in 1991 to 15.5% in 1996 at the
expense of the Government & Military sector which will decrease from
23.0% in 1991 to 14.7% in 1996."--Information Network

Information Network: Embedded Controller Market
"The worldwide market for embedded controllers/microprocessors will
mushroom from $4.6B in 1991 to $9.6B in 1996. Office automation
products are leading the way towards high performance. The demand is
across all fronts; from laser printers, digital copiers, scanners,
graphics controllers, to fax and networking equipment. Anyone using
laser printers will agree that their is a pressing need for an
inexpensive laser printer that can print faster than the current 8-10
pages per minute. Also, there is the need for higher resolution than
the present 300 dots per inch. Some might go as far as expressing the
need for color printing on a laser printer.
`Office data communications products such as LAN controllers, LAN
gateways, and bridges are also pushing the performance curve to keep
pace with the demands for networking from increasing numbers of PC
users. In fact, many sophisticated users in the CAD/CAM industry,
with 32-bit workstations, are looking towards 100 Mbps transfer rates
with FDDI and MAN technologies.
`The designers of the automobile engine control system have already
begun to select 32-bit architectures for cars that will be introduced
in the middle of the 90s. Their existing 8-bit designs have reached a
limit in terms of computational power. Instead of adding a second
processor, they are opting for full 32-bits single chip solutions
because of the higher reliability of a single chip system control and
the additional processing capability for the future.
`NEC dominated the 4-bit market with a share of 28% in 1991.
Matsushita at 12% and Toshiba at 10% were distant rivals. In all, the
top six positions were held by the Japanese. Motorola, with its
MC68HC5 and HC11 families dominated the 8-bit market with a share of
25% in 1991. Hitachi at 12% and NEC at 11% were distant rivals. In
the top six positions, U.S. companies held a 40% market share.
`The 16-bit market is dominated by Intel and Motorola with 30% and 27%
market shares respectively. By 1996 they are expected to lose some of
their share as they focus their attention on the 32-bit market, which
represents higher revenue potential and where the two major companies
expect to see maximum competitive pressures.
`In 1991, the 32-bit market was dominated by Motorola 68000 and 88000
with 60%, more than six times the market share of second place AMD
with a 10% share. This is one area where the introduction of RISC
architectures has created an environment where other companies are
likely to succeed. AMD, Inmos/SGS-Thompson, and Intel were helped
considerably by their strong RISC product line."--Information Network

VLSI Research: Hard Disk Drive ICs
"The merchant sales for Mixed Signal Hard Disk Drive ICs reached
$453M in 1991. The top five suppliers accounted for 60% of this
highly competitive market. The number one supplier Silicon Systems
captured 30% of the market. GEC Plessey Semiconductors is the second
largest supplier with a 15% market share. The remaining top five
companies supplied approximately 5% of the market each. Hard Disk
Drive IC merchant sales are forecasted to reach $757M by 1994, a
compound annual growth rate of 19%."-- VLSI Research

VLSI Research: Video Compression Processor Market
"New, sophisticated, high-speed video compression processors have
rapidly emerged as the most important key to multimedia success.
This is because real-time, full-motion video requires the highest
bandwidth of any media used in multimedia, presenting a major
challenge for IC designers. The belief that users want still images
and full-motion video on a PC is driving video technology advancement.
Multimedia systems will not be considered complete without the
capability of transmitting, processing, and storing still images and,
particularly, full-motion video. However, achieving this capability
presents major challenges to video subsystems IC designers. The
market for video compression processors is small, but growth will
exceed 219% annually through 1995."--VLSI Research
