Femtocell Semiconductors

The $50 Bill of Materials Challenge

This Research Brief is part of the Femtocells Research Service


The femtocell semiconductor market is characterized by high innovation, low volumes and significant posturing. Contracts are beginning to be awarded and trials continue to taper off. The number of leading box vendors is beginning to contract, and there is a greater notion of standardization in terms of interfaces and architectures. Although a lot of the front-running in this market has been done by the younger, nimbler start-ups which are willing to take on considerable risk, these solidifying factors are beginning to draw the larger vendors closer to the fold and it is likely that some of them will enter very soon. This Research Brief provides a clear outline of the major semiconductor providers and their femtocell-specific products. It also includes a forecast for total value of the market for femtocell semiconductors.
