According to market research firm SBI (Specialistsin Business Information), the global market for LEDs and OLEDs now exceeds $5 billion, while the United States has a market value of $1 billion. This is a full growth of more than 50% compared to 2007. SBI further estimates that the global LED and OLED market will reach $14 billion in 2013, while the US will reach a market size of $3 billion.
Why LED and OLED technology can be one of the best growth potentials in the future? Because the global effort for the green energy industry is now more than ever. This is due to the continuous price increase of oil and other resources in the first half of 2008, and the impact of global climate change on humans.
LEDs are also more efficient at converting energy than traditional incandescent lamps. In general, LED conversion efficiency is 80%, while incandescent lamps are only 20%. For example, traffic signs using LEDs can reduce energy use by 92% compared to traffic signs using incandescent lights.
In the long run, the growing number of LED or OLED applications will eliminate the need to build too many power plants in many parts of the world, even as the global population grows and the demand for electricity increases. Because LEDs and OLEDs will be able to reduce the amount of electricity used by everyone and even users, once the popularity of LED lighting is higher, existing power plants are sufficient to meet demand.
However, SBI also warns that even with the benefits of LEDs and OLEDs, the cost reduction will take time.
Therefore, one of the keys to hinder the popularity of LEDs and OLEDs is the cost. Once the price drops rapidly, perhaps the market size of LED and OLED will be larger and more popular.
Taiwan is now actively working to create the LED market. The Energy Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs has budgeted NT$200-300 million. After the LED streetlight standard is set, the LED street lamp replacement plan will be launched. According to LEDinside estimates, the overall LED market in Taiwan will have a business opportunity of 40-500 billion yuan.
High Frequency PCB
High frequency PCB also called HF PCB.The RF frequency range is typically from 500 MHz to 2 GHz, and designs above 100 MHz are considered RF. The microwave frequency range is anything above 2 GHz. There`s a considerable difference between RF and microwave circuits versus typical digital and analog circuits. In essence, RF signals are very high frequency analog signals. Therefore, unlike digital, at any point in time an RF signal can be at any voltage and current level between minimum and maximum limits. We have much experience in this filed,up to 60 GHz PCB we made.
1.Made of special Resin system material with Low ER and Low loss factor
2.Hybrid Build up mix of FR4 with Low loss material3.Tight Impedance control
4.Used in Automotive, Radar, CAR to CAR communication, Distance Assistance, Active Drive Systems
We say high frequency ,also like RF PCB and Microwave PCB as they are special material too,not usual FR4 .We have Taconic,Rogers,F4B,F4BM.PTFE material in stock.With this,we can do your special boards quick turn.Unlike other suppliers need long time to purchase material.
