Auto electronics IC sales to grow 34%.PALO ALTO Palo Alto, city, California Palo Alto (păl`ō ăl`tō), city (1990 pop. 55,900), Santa Clara co., W Calif.; inc. 1894. Although primarily residential, Palo Alto has aerospace, electronics, and advanced research industries. , CA -- Revenues of ICs used in the world's automobile market will grow 34% by 2010 from $6.8 billion last year, Frost & Sullivan (frost.com) said in a recent report. The proliferation of automobile electronic content is a result of government pollution guidelines, safety and security regulations, and the ongoing oil crisis, says the research firm. This growing need directly influences the markets of automobile application specific integrated circuits Integrated circuits Miniature electronic circuits produced within and upon a single semiconductor crystal, usually silicon. Integrated circuits range in complexity from simple logic circuits and amplifiers, about 1/20 in. (1. , application specific standard parts and field programmable gate arrays See FPGA. . In addition, rising fuel prices in the world market feed the demand for electric and hybrid vehicles This is a list of hybrid vehicles in chronological order of production: Early designs
