Abstract
This IDC study includes market forecast data and analysis on a worldwide basis
for the mobile phone semiconductor market for 2007-2011. This document provides
segmentation by various air interface standards in 2G, 2.5G, 3G, and 3.5G
technologies; by major semiconductor device type; and by geographic region. It
also provides comprehensive data on semiconductor BOM costs by air interface
standard and component subsystem. Further detail is provided by component for
each air interface. Key forecast assumptions are identified, and their
potential impact on the mobile phone semiconductor market is discussed. A
comparison of the current forecast to the prior forecast is also noted.
"Connectivity and multimedia continue to be drivers in the mobile phone
semiconductor market as mobile phones increasingly include data processing and
entertainment functionality. Mobile phone semiconductor revenue is expected to
grow at a 1.9% CAGR through 2011." - Flint Pulskamp, program manager, Wireless
Semiconductors
