New ElectroniCast Study Predicts Dynamic Growth of Optoelectronic/fiber optic Packages
San Mateo, Calif. According to ElectroniCast s Optoelectronic Packages and Packaging Forecast, the global consumption of optoelectronic and fiber optic component packages will grow from $407 million in 2000 to $1.12 billion in 2005. Standard packages (including TO can, butterfly and others) represented 42 percent of 2000 consumption at $171 million, growing to $437 million or a 39 percent value share in 2005, as illustrated in figure one.
"The rapid growth of custom package consumption will be driven significantly by multifiber transceiver packages, up to 256-fiber links, for VCSEL-based telecom transceivers. The continuing strong drives toward greater miniaturization and increased automated assembly/test will have a major impact on package designs," ElectroniCast Founder and Chairman Jeff Montgomery said.
The forecast includes markets and competitive analysis including North American consumption of optoelectronic packages, segmented by merchant market and captive production, analyzed for 2000 and forecasted for years 2001-2005. Competitive market shares are estimated, and competitor profiles are provided. The forecast provides analysis of trends in optoelectronic packaging concepts, and in the packages used in North American production of fiber optic components and subsystems. The report provides a year-by-year forecast of the quantity, average price and value of packages used in various photonic products. Also included is an analysis of trends in package materials, including various metals, molded plastics and films. The consumption forecast of packages by each fiber optic component category is be detailed by type and materials, and the relative consumption of optoelectronic component packages in next-stage applications is also analyzed.
