Abstract

Microwave Monolithic Integrated circuits, MMIC and RFIC, is the foundation of today's telecommunication and sensor systems.While GaAs and silicon based IC-technologies are used in today's microwave link, radar, and remote sensing applications, emerging technologies such as wide band gap (SiC, GaN etc) and InP/antimonide based devices are expected to become commercially available within a few years, with an expected large impact on system performance. The downscaling of silicon technologies such as CMOS and SiGe-HBT according the Moore's law, has now resulted in device performance close to the III-V technologies with cut-off frequencies exceeding 300GHz. As an expected result, highly integrated microwave and millimetre wave systems will likely be available also for broader consumer massmarket applications due to the reduced cost and increased functionality.

For GaAs IC suppliers, there are a number of trends. We've been waiting years for 3G mobile and it looks like it's finally here with meaningful volumes in the 150 million unit region. The 3G RF chip content of a cell phone and see it has gone up significantly because of the multi-mode, multi-band phones. There's just more RF content in there. In the industry, the GaAs content for GSM phones is around $1.50, for an EDGE phone, $2.50, for a 3G phone about $6. Similar things are going on in the WiFi space. It's going through the transition to 802.11n, which has more RF content. The transition takes the RF content value from below $1 to above $2. On the supply side, the RF industry has seen consolidation over the past few years. RF has lost suppliers. Philips was a large player. They spun out NXP and announced they will not participate in the RF space. Renesas slowly looked to other areas for growth and lost RF share. There used to be four GaAs fabs in Taiwan and now there are two. We anticipate rising demand and finally, consolidation of supply around the big players.

There is investment going on now for auto radar for both adaptive cruise control and early warning for collision. If you can have a couple fractions of a second early warning before an actual collision, certain things can be deployed in the car fractions of second earlier and have a favorable impact on the likelihood of survivability of an accident. So the industry is looking closely at auto radar. Not only for safety but also for convenience. Adaptive cruise control sets a distance instead of speed. Collision detection and the early deployment of safety features is a good market for our technology because they're looking at 77Ghz as one of the bands for this type of activity and that's in the sweet spot for our technology.

Improvements in integration envelope for GaAs ICs and the ability to operate at higher voltages will give this technology a new lease on life. The rapid trend toward complex multiband, multimode cellular and mobile handset designs with integrated front-end modules will continue to drive the consumption of compound semiconductor HBTs and pHEMTs in emerging handsets, while the ability to deliver linear, rugged high-power Pas at 24 V to 28 V will open the infrastructure door for GaAs HBTs.

Press Release

GaAs IC市場預計2011年僅有1%之成長,其2010年之成長率為36%

2012年02月01日

Global Information, Inc.已代理銷售由The Information Network所發行之報告「The GaAs IC Market (GaAs IC 市場之分析與預測)」。

Information Network的報告指出,受到無線網路需求低迷影響,2011砷化鎵(GaAs)IC市場之成長幾乎持平。

Information Network之負責人Dr. Robert Castellano表示:「所有行動電話中內建的功率放大器(PA),使行動電話至語音或數據,透過基地塔台轉送或是透過他行動電話號碼及網路地址發送。」

而行動電話中最重要之RF組件PA,目前大多為砷化鎵(GaAs)製集成電路。」

GaAs IC雖於2010年展現了36%之成長率,但受到無線網路,也就是對行動電話及WiFi需求低迷之影響,2011年將僅停滯於1%之成長。

此為2009年1.7%之成長率以來,最低的一次。

而無線/WiFi市場預計於2012年有所恢復,帶動GaAs IC成長8%。

3G行動電話中,幾乎最多內建5個PA,又由於GaAs獨占了100%之市場,其規模估計可達近50億美金成績。

受到複雜3G系統、支援國際漫遊及數據漫遊等因素帶動,使得每支行動電話持續增加其PA之內建數量。

每支行動電話之PA價格由0.8美金飆升到目前之2.9美金。LTE及先進無線服務(AWS)頻寬若可實現先進無線終端之商務使用,PA價格勢必再向上看漲至3.5美金以上。
