The latest report from the market research institute IHS states that Asahi Kasei Microsystems (AKM), a Japanese magnetic sensor supplier, has won the market leader for the third consecutive year in 2011, thanks to the popularity of end products such as tablet devices and mobile phones. The throne, its revenue accounted for almost one quarter of the total magnetic sensor industry revenue of 1.5 billion US dollars.
According to IHS iSuppli statistics, AKM’s 2011 revenue is estimated at US$372 million, a 24% increase from the US$300 million in 2012; the company’s market share in the overall magnetic sensor market is about 25% in 2011. For the first time since 2009, it has been the top supplier of magnetic sensors. In 2011, the total revenue of the top ten magnetic sensor IC suppliers worldwide was US$1.3 billion, accounting for 90% of the overall industry revenue.
"In the field of Hall elements and magnetic sensor ICs that are used to track position, contact, rotational speed and linear angle in a machine or equipment, or to detect and process magnetic fields to establish position information, AKM is unquestionable. Leading vendors; "IHS senior analyst Richard Dixon said:" The company's 2011 revenue growth momentum, a large part of the Hall-component-based 3D magnetic compass (Hall-based 3) -D magnetic compasses)."
The competition in the electronic compass field may gradually increase, and the focus is on the 6-axis compass; in the past, the volume of such compasses was large, and there was no fierce competition with 3-axis discrete components. However, recently German company Bosch and American Freescale have both launched a solution with a size of only 3x3mm; IHS pointed out that both companies have combined their own accelerometers and compasses into 6-axis components, with OEMs With the adoption of the shaft solution, AKM will feel competitive pressure.
The world’s second largest supplier of magnetic sensors in 2011 was Allegro MicroSystems in the United States. The company’s annual revenue was US$302 million, a 14% increase from the US$264 million in 2010; Allegro changed its strategy last year and was locked in by AKM and other vendors. The consumer market for sensor applications has shifted to high-end sensor products such as automotive applications. The relatively high price, hall speed sensors for axles and switches in vehicles are the strengths of Allegro. The company is also a leading supplier of Hall current sensors for battery monitoring systems and other applications.
Ranked in the world's third largest magnetic sensor supplier in 2011 is Infineon of Germany. The company's annual revenue is 188 million US dollars, which is 33% higher than the US$142 million in 2010. The strong growth performance makes Infineon replace the Swiss company Micronas. Standing third in the world, the latter dropped from third place to fourth place.
Infineon's growth drivers are from wheel and torque sensors in automotive steering applications. The company will launch a new series of current sensor products and higher integration magnetic sensing solutions next year, including speed Sensors are included; in addition there is anisotropic magnetoresistive (AMR) for angle sensing applications.
From the third-largest supplier of magnetic sensors in 2010, Micronas dropped to fourth place. In 2011, magnetic sensor revenue was US$150 million, up 5% from the previous year’s US$143 million; the company’s 2011 battalion The poor performance was due to the loss of orders from Japan's Denso, an important customer of Hall sensors, following the 311 Japan earthquake.
The fifth-largest supplier of magnetic sensors was the Belgian company Melexis, which had revenue of $112 million in 2011, a 5% increase from the $107 million in 2010. IHS pointed out that Melexis will continue to take a leading position in accelerator-pedal-position sensing applications. Eighty percent of the company's business is to lock in automotive applications, but there are switch components for mobile display applications.
The rest of the world’s top ten magnetic sensor suppliers list also includes annual revenue of US$96 million and sixth-largest player NXP; seventh largest Japanese company Aichi Steel, with annual revenue of 40 million. Dollars. The eighth-ranked industry also has two players. They are the Austrian company AMS (austriamicrosystems), and the American company Memsic. The 2011 annual revenue is US$29 million. Ranked tenth is the United States Diodes, the annual revenue of 24 million US dollars in the top ten magnetic sensor suppliers, Memsic's annual revenue growth rate of the best performance, the growth rate of up to 1,340%; The growth momentum of the company comes from the order of the electronic compass of the big customer Samsung, and its 2010 electronic compass shipments are very small. Aichi Steel is the second-highest growth supplier with a margin of 122%. The main revenue contribution comes from Sharp's mobile phone products.
According to IHS iSuppli statistics, AKM’s 2011 revenue is estimated at US$372 million, a 24% increase from the US$300 million in 2012; the company’s market share in the overall magnetic sensor market is about 25% in 2011.
