The chain reaction of the industrial chain after the sales of wireless networking equipment surged?

Electronic enthusiasts' news : With the rapid growth of the Internet of Things market, mobile devices have become the key to the ecosystem of connected animals. In the future, the Internet of Things will be driven by nodes or sensor devices. Undoubtedly, this will bring unlimited business opportunities for semiconductor IC manufacturers. Although it is not yet mature, the intelligent orientation of the Internet of Things will become the general trend, and the future application of the Internet of Things in industry or other fields will inevitably rise. The editor starts from the practical application of the two original semiconductor factories, and analyzes the intelligent trend of the future Internet of Things for everyone.

ABI Research ’s latest data on the Internet of Things (IoE) shows that there are 10 billion wireless networking devices on the market today, and this number is expected to increase to 30 billion by 2020. Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, ZigBee, Cellular, RFID, and all other wireless technologies are important drivers of IoE market growth.

In the field of smart industry, who will compete with Freescale and Texas Instruments?

There is no doubt that the realization of the smart industry is based on the penetration and application of the Internet of Things technology, and combined with the future advanced manufacturing technology to form a new intelligent manufacturing system. Therefore, the key technology of the intelligent industry lies in the Internet of Things technology, and the foundation of the Internet of Things technology lies in the application of intelligent embedded systems. At present, as the representative of mainstream trends of embedded systems, ARM microprocessors are receiving more and more attention. Two of the most representative ARM intelligent industrial embedded processor companies are Freescale (Freescale) and Texas Instruments (TI).

Freescale : It is worth mentioning that Freescale occupies 70% of the industry share in the field of automotive electronics and is called "Intel Corporation" in automotive electronics. Freescale has cooperated with ARM since the beginning of ARM7. After continuous upgrading, it has formed a unique i.MX series of multimedia application processors. With its excellent performance, ultra-low power consumption and rich multimedia content support, Favored by developers around the world. The i.MX processor is mainly for industries such as industry, monitoring, and automotive electronics. Based on the characteristics of the automotive industry, the temperature, stability, and 8-10 year life cycle of Freescale chips are very suitable for industrial applications.

Texas Instruments : At the end of 2012, due to the failure of the smart phone and tablet computer chip market, TI announced that it began to shift the focus of the processor to industry, automotive electronics and other fields, focusing more on embedded applications with a longer life cycle, which is undoubtedly the smart industry The development of embedded processors is good news.

Editor's comment

It is foreseeable that with the rapid growth of the Internet of Things market, intelligent industrialization will inevitably advance rapidly. In the future, the intelligent industrial embedded system represented by the ARM intelligent industrial embedded processor will be more widely used. As the industry leader in the field of industrial electronics, Texas Instruments, after announcing its focus on industrial and other fields, will definitely take advantage of the unique performance advantages of its processors and DSPs, and integrate wireless connection technologies (such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth technology, Bluetooth low energy consumption) Energy technology, ZigBee, RFID, etc.), in the future smart industrial market has a lot to do. As the first manufacturer to commercialize MRAM, Freescale, with its advantages of microprocessors, controllers and sensors, is bound to bring us a smarter, more environmentally friendly and safer experience.

ABI Research practice director Peter Cooney said, "Ultra-low power wireless technology that is about to be standardized is the driving force of IoE, and semiconductor companies and standards bodies are the pioneers in the market, helping to realize IoE. IoE may appear in 2013. , But it will take a long time to reach its full potential. " The author also agrees with this view. Although there is still a certain distance from the full application, it is much better than the situation where the concept of the Internet of Things is flying in the sky in previous years. Now, mobile devices have become the key to the ecosystem of connected animals, and in the future, the Internet of Things will be driven by nodes or sensor devices. Undoubtedly, this will bring unlimited business opportunities for semiconductor IC manufacturers. Although it is not yet mature, the intelligent orientation of the Internet of Things will become the general trend, and the future application of the Internet of Things in industry or other fields will inevitably rise.
