General electronic components are devices operating within electronic systems, influencing their associated fields. These components typically feature multiple electrical terminals interconnected to form specific electronic circuits, serving functions such as amplification or oscillation.
The primary types of general electronic components include passive components, active components, electromechanical components, and others. Electromechanical components utilize electrical signals to induce mechanical changes, such as the rotation of a motor. The generation of a magnetic field by an electrical current leads to physical movement. These products are distributed through aftermarket channels and manufacturer/distributor/service providers, catering to end users in industries such as aerospace, communication, automotive, and more.

General Electric's components and expertise play a crucial role in satellite manufacturing by supplying essential subsystems, materials, and components tailored to the specific requirements of space environments. For example, in May 2024, a report from the UK Space Agency, a government executive agency in the UK, stated that as of April 2024, there were over 9,000 active satellites in orbit, with projections suggesting this number could exceed 60,000 by 2030. Thus, the increasing number of satellites is propelling the growth of the general electronic components market.
The growth of the general electronic components market is significantly influenced by the adoption of the Internet of Things (IoT), representing a key trend in recent years. The IoT has witnessed substantial expansion, providing a platform for communication and connection among diverse devices, including fitness watches, smartphones, and smart meters. General electronic components such as resistors, transistors, capacitors, and diodes play a crucial role in the fabrication of smart devices, sensors, and actuators that establish interconnectivity. According to IoT Analytics, global IoT connections experienced an 18% growth in 2022, reaching 14.3 billion active IoT endpoints. Projections indicate that there will be over 30 billion IoT connections, averaging approximately 4 IoT devices per person, by 2025, highlighting a substantial demand for IoT devices.
Major companies engaged in the general electronic component market are actively pursuing innovative solutions to fortify their market presence. Innovative diode solutions involve the application of advanced diode technologies to address challenges and create opportunities across various industries. For example, in May 2023, Littelfuse Inc., a US-based electronics company, introduced the LTKAK2-L series high-power TVS diodes in a surface-mount package. The LTKAK2-L Series TVS Diodes, designed for compatibility with automated PCB assembly methods, come in a compact surface-mount package. This smaller solution, housed in a modified SMTO-218 package, allows designers to achieve robust circuit protection while utilizing less PCB area compared to axial leaded alternatives. With a surge current rating of 2 kA, these diodes enable designs to meet IEC-61000-4-5 Level 4 criteria, providing protection for a broad range of high-reliability AC and DC power supplies and applications.
