Quest for Speed & Flexibility in Electronics Manufacturing to Drive Demand for Surface Mount Technology (SMT) Equipment

The global market for Surface Mount Technology (SMT) Equipment is projected to reach US$5.7 billion by 2025 , driven by technological innovations in next-generation electronics, continued craze and rising demand for mobile communications devices, need for speed & flexibility in electronics manufacturing, and rise in number of electronic contract manufacturers. Surface mount technology (SMT) represents a method by which an electronic circuit is produced. The technology involves direct placement of electronic circuit components on the surface of printed circuit boards (PCBs). SMT significantly varies from conventional thru-hole soldering technology as it primarily uses principles and soldering equipment that typically differ from the traditional method, and provides enhanced electrical conductivity and more reliability than the thru-hole technology. All electronics hardware mass-manufactured today are produced using surface mount technology.  World market for SMT equipment ...

Paper & Plastic Film Capacitors Ride High on Energy Efficiency Goals in Power Electronics

Growing focus on achieving energy efficiency in power electronics in consumer and industrial electronics segments is poised to drive the global market for Paper & Plastic Film Capacitors to reach US$2.8 billion by 2022 . While ceramic and aluminum capacitors dominate the global capacitors market, paper and plastic film capacitors, although accounting for a smaller share is attracting considerable demand from key electronic segments. Paper & plastic film capacitors find use in wide range of electronic equipment and are also used in many AC and DC electronics and microelectronics circuits. Compared to ceramic and aluminum electrolytic capacitors, paper and plastic film capacitors possess novel properties that make them highly suitable for use in several general-purpose and industrial applications. Film capacitors have very low ESL and ESR values and despite being physically larger and expensive than aluminum electrolytic capacitors, these capacitors have higher surge and pulse ...
