Get Analysis And Five-Year Forecasts For All 1394-Enabled Products, Breaking Out Each PC, PC Peripheral, CE, Or Automotive Application By Penetration Of 1394a And 1394b For Each Forecast Year.DUBLIN, Ireland -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c62734) has announced the addition of "1394 2007: A Niche Interface" to their offering IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, New York, www.ieee.org) A membership organization that includes engineers, scientists and students in electronics and allied fields. 1394 (1394) is a high-speed serial bus found in PCs, PC peripherals, and consumer electronics (CE) devices. The technology is facing challenges in 2007. 1394 suffers from being the second choice technology in many product segments. For example, 1394?s historic one-third penetration of the PC market is now dwarfed by high-speed USB USB in full Universal Serial Bus Type of serial bus that allows peripheral devices (disks, modems, printers, digitizers, data gloves, etc.) to be easily connected to a computer. ?s 100% penetration. This has helped high-speed USB become the interface of choice for PC peripherals such as printers, scanners, and external hard disk- drives, largely relegating 1394 to an afterthought af·ter·thought n.

In the CE segment, 1394 is being surpassed by HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) A digital interface for audio and video signals designed as a single-cable solution for home theater and consumer electronics equipment. as the digital interface of choice in digital televisions, set-top boxes The cable TV box that sits on "top" of the TV "set," although it is often located several feet away in an equipment rack. The set-top box descrambles the premium channels and provides a tuner for the higher cable numbers that very old TVs did not support. , and DVD players. Even in markets where 1394 was very strong, such as digital camcorders, it is being challenged by high-speed USB. Overall, these technology competitors will increasingly relegate rel·e·gate tr.v. rel·e·gat·ed, rel·e·gat·ing, rel·e·gates 1. To assign to an obscure place, position, or condition. 2.

This report contains analysis and five-year forecasts for all 1394-enabled products, breaking out each PC, PC peripheral, CE, or automotive application by penetration of 1394a and 1394b for each forecast year. Analysis is provided for all types of 1394, including 1394c and 1394 over Coax. Brief profiles of major 1394 silicon and IP suppliers are also provided.
