Sensor is plays more and more important role in the development of the Internet of things, the current sensor product demand increased dramatically, and center of gravity has moved towards a high technical content of MEMS sensors, the accuracy of the MEMS sensor determines the quality of the information collected. In 2015, what had happened to the world's ten biggest MEMS sensor manufacturers change?
First make a brief introduction of the MEMS sensors, this all known as "Micro electronic Mechanical System" (Micro - company Mechanical System) technology, in the 1980 s, has been scholars predict "will bring another revolution for human society", compared with the traditional sensors, it has small volume, light weight, low cost, low power consumption, high reliability, suitable for mass production, ease of integration, and realize the intelligent characteristics. At the same time, in the characteristics of the micron size makes it possible to complete some can realize the function of the traditional mechanical sensors. MEMS technology has been widely used in aerospace, electronics, biology, medicine and other high and new technology, has become a relates to national security, science and technology development, the key technology of economic prosperity.
For global MEMS industry in 2015 is an unusual year, the top 30 MEMS companies a year in which different fate. Five MEMS companies in more than 20% growth rate in 2015: Mr Anwar high (Avago Technologies) is 41%; Should America (company) is 33%; Taiwan semiconductor manufacturing co (TSMC) was 29%; Qorvo is 28%; Sound technology (AAC) is 22%.
2015 global top 30 MEMS enterprises list the only change is replaced by infrared imaging products manufacturer TSMC ULIS, ULIS in 2015 with TSMC has millions of dollars in revenue gap, thereby losing 2014 ranking of the location of the 30th.
