Research and Markets: MCU Manufactures Are In The Upstream, Following Are Module Manufacturers Developing Special ECU, Then Tireone Component Suppliers - Global Automotive MCU Industry Report, 2006-2007.DUBLIN, Ireland -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c49657) has announced the addition of Global Automotive MCU (1) (MicroController Unit) A computer on a single chip. See microcontroller. (2) (Multipoint Control Unit) A device that is used to moderate a videoconference of three or more end points (users at computers or groups of users Industry Report, 2006-2007 to their offering. As the most attractive sector of the electronic industry, automotive electronics is far superior to others no matter in prospect, stability or gross margin, and its core just lies in automotive MCU. However, MCU is an inborn inborn /in·born/ (in´born?) 1. genetically determined, and present at birth. 2. congenital. in·born adj. 1. Possessed by an organism at birth. 2. high-threshold field, especially for the automotive MCU because it has to consider not only the temperature scope between- 40 and 125, but also the quiver, humidity, height, dust, oil-dust. Therefore, automotive MCU requires special manufacturing process as well as long-term authentication. Automotive electronics also has its unique industrial module: MCU manufactures are in the upstream, following are module manufacturers developing special ECU, then Tireone component suppliers. In recent years, Tireone component suppliers have been becoming increasingly powerful, while the module manufacturers have been gradually disappearing. Meanwhile, the global top eight automobile groups shared 80% of the automobile market, and the division among European, American and Japanese vehicles is quite obvious. Due to the persistent vertical integration of Japanese manufacturers and the tight supply chain which is extremely hard for non-Japanese manufacturers to enter, MCU manufacturers usually ally with car manufactures in development instead of component suppliers. By contrast, European and American manufacturers seldom have business with car manufacturers except Freescale with whom GM cooperate for engine development. Automotive MCU vendors show more interest in fields including air bag (especially side air bag), automotive electronic brake control (ABS, ESC See escape character and escape key. See also ESC/P. ESC - escape and ESP (1) (Enhanced Service Provider) An organization that adds value to basic telephone service by offering such features as call-forwarding, call-detailing and protocol conversion. ), internal instrument panel, automobile navigation, audio equipment and bus lines.
