Power Management in Consumer Electronics Semiconductor Markets for Mobile Phones and other Portable Devices This study provides an in-depth examination of power management for portable devices such as cellphones, MP3 players, digital cameras, camcorders, portable video players, gaming devices and PDAs. It describes geographic and ASP trends in some of the end markets, and identifies the vendors that play in this space, as well as analyzing some of the industry consolidations that have taken place in the last few years. The functions and feature sets of portable devices -- especially cellphones -- are examined in detail and mapped to ensuing changes in the power management section. The study explains the differences in power management architectures and strategies between mobile phones and other portable devices. It details the technological progression in this component, in terms of functions, circuits and process technologies. It also explains why the power management section is critical to reducing power consumption in battery-operated mobile devices. What Does This Report Answer? What are the key trends in functions and features of portable devices, especially in mobile phones, and how do they affect power management? Who are the main suppliers, and is there industry consolidation? What is happening in different geographic regions? What are the ASP trends for power management? Are they uniform across technologies and segments? How does power management for other portable devices differ from that of cellular phones? What are some of the technology and architectural changes in the power management chip? How does the power management section help to conserve battery power in mobile devices? What distinguishes the power management solutions from different vendors? Who are the suppliers to the major handset OEMs? Who Needs This Report?
