Introduction

Abstract

Synopsis

This report analyzes the revenue and unit opportunities for x86-based embedded processors (MCUs/eMPUs, ASICs/ASSPs and FPGAs) in 20 application areas, identifying which are the key sectors for growth.

Semicast has a strategic focus on embedded processors and provides on-going research services to the global industry. Semicast' s Embedded Processing Service provides coverage of 32/64-bit MCUs/eMPUs, general purpose DSPs, ASICs/ASSPs and PLDs/FPGAs. The service has been developed specifically for semiconductor and software suppliers to understand detailed trends in key application areas across the five main end-use sectors.

Key Features:

• One of a series of 4 reports on ARM, MIPS, Power Architecture & x86 in Embedded Processing.
• Coverage of the market for x86-based MCUs/eMPUs, ASICs/ASSPs and FPGAs.
• Analysis of 20 application areas, providing detailed coverage of each end-use sector.
• Unit, revenue and average pricing (ASP) analysis for x86-based MCUs/eMPUs, ASICs/ASSPs and FPGAs in each application. Base year is 2008, with forecasts to 2014.
• 2008 supplier market share estimates (in revenues) for x86-based embedded processors.
• Highly quantitative analysis, with discussion summarized in short, easy to read bullet points.
• PDF and Excel delivery options available.
