Long-term Development Prospects for Companies in the LCD and OLED Drive IC Industry Once the Technical Barrier has been Crossed.


DUBLIN, Ireland -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c44948) has announced the addition of Medium-Small Sized LCD and OLED (Organic Light Emitting Device, Organic Light Emitting Diode) A thin film light-emitting technology that is expected to compete with LCD and plasma TVs as well as LCD monitors and readouts.  Drive IC Industry Study, 2005-2006 to their offering.

This report comprehensively analyses the market and industry of the large, medium and small sized LCD Drive ICs, and of the medium and small sized OLED. It also provides full details about the major LCD and OLED panel manufacturers and about the major LCD and OLED drive ICs manufacturers.

The Drive IC is the most expensive component of the liquid crystal module. The high-speed development of liquid crystal industry also promotes liquid crystal drive IC industry. In contrast with other analog IC, drive IC has particular features, such as huge shipments, extremely high technical requirements, close relationships with panel manufacturers and unique business patterns. Therefore, most drive IC manufacturers are professional IC manufacturers and are rarely involved in other fields.

The field of large-sized LCD drive IC is quite difficult to enter. Besides the high technical requirements, large sized drive IC manufacturers must obtain the cooperation of large size panel manufacturers and top wafer OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) The rebranding of equipment and selling it. The term initially referred to the company that made the products (the "original" manufacturer), but eventually became widely used to refer to the organization that buys the products and . There are only two panel production lines in China mainland, and the purchasing right of drive IC has to be obtained abroad. Magnachi, the associated company of Hydis, is one of top five global large-sized drive IC manufacturers. NEC (NEC Corporation, Tokyo, www.nec.com, www.necus.com) An electronics conglomerate known in the U.S. for its monitors. In Japan, it had the lion's share of the PC market until the late 1990s (see PC 98).

NEC was founded in Tokyo in 1899 as Nippon Electric Company, Ltd.
, the associated company of Shanghai SVA-NEC, is the third largest global large-sized drive IC manufacturer.

The field of medium and small sized LCD drive IC is comparably easier to enter considering factors such as a fewer connections between LCD Panel manufacturers, a large number of medium and small LCD module manufacturers in China mainland with a self-purchase right. However, the high technical requirements for medium and small LCD drive IC can not be ignored.

There are long-term development opportunities for companies once the technical barrier has been crossed. Solomon Systech is a good example. Currently, it is the largest IC design corporation in China (except Taiwan). In 2005, the sales of Solomon Systech exceeded USD USD

In currencies, this is the abbreviation for the U.S. Dollar.

Notes:
The currency market, also known as the Foreign Exchange market, is the largest financial market in the world, with a daily average volume of over US $1 trillion.
 $400 million with a profit of USD $76 million. Its market share of color STN-LCD drive IC and OLED drive IC ranked first in the world. Especially in the field of OLED, its market share exceeds 60% with a gross profit margin Gross profit margin

Gross profit divided by sales, which is equal to each sales dollar left over after paying for the cost of goods sold.


gross profit margin

A measure calculated by dividing gross profit by net sales.
 maintained at 20%.
