Please refer to Set-Top Box Video System-on-Chip (SoC) Semiconductors to ensure you are viewing the latest forecasts.
The worldwide set-top box market contains various submarkets, including the Pay TV markets and free-to-air markets. Semiconductors (or, more specifically, System on Chips or SoCs) for digital set-top boxes perform a tuning function and decoding function. In addition, they must present a user experience via middleware layers and a program guide. Historically, Broadcom and STMicro have been the strongest in the worldwide markets. The birth of IPTV platforms brought a round of innovative younger startups into the market, but they have slowly been exiting the market through various consolidations. In addition, the integration of home networking technologies around the multiroom DVR, once a separate chip, have been integrated, further putting pressure on standalone players. In recent years Asian markets have brought newer set-top box IC players onto the scene, growing in expertise.
This report provides worldwide shipments and revenues of SoC ICs segmented by platform (Cable, Satellite, DTT, IPTV) and geography (North America, Latin America, Western Europe, Eastern Europe, Asia-Pacific, and Middle East-Africa). It provides market share by revenues on a per-platform basis. It also includes home networking vendor market share, and unit shipments from home networking technologies (MoCa, HomePlug, Homegrid / G.hn, etc.).
