GaN Challenge Si device market

According to market research company Yole Developpement, 2007 year gallium nitride (GaN) RF device market to 1,700 million. 65% of the market belongs to R & D, 17% of the national defense and satellite, 16% are 3G base stations and 2% are LTE / WiMax applications.

As the GaN in the LTE / WiMax strong field of infiltration, Yole forecasts GaN RF transistor market growth in 2010 to 1 billion U.S. dollars, and in 2008 was about 3,000 million. This means that the 2008-2010 compound annual growth rate of 80%.

Yole forecasts, in 2012 the proportion of GaN R & D market will drop to 6%, the proportion of national defense and satellite will increase to 27%, 3G base stations, the proportion will rise to 31%, LTE and WiMax share will rise to 29% . Broadcasting market will account for 4%. 2012 Yole not predict how much GaN market will reach the scale.

Yole compound semiconductor program manager Philippe Roussel said in a statement: “These GaN devices are currently challenge the field of silicon in the industry’s leading position in the industry in 2008 is expected to power semiconductor market size of about 900 million U.S. dollars.”

Until 2005, accounting for 2-GHz silicon LDMOS or higher frequency of high power RF amplification applications in the ratio is about 90%, the rest of the market occupied by a GaAs pHEMT technology.

Ford's electric vehicle battery module

Ford's electric vehicle battery module from the key components of the Purchasing Magna

Magna International (Magna International) Company on January 12 announced cooperation with Ford Motor Company, a joint vehicle development, the introduction of a zero-emission electric cars lithium battery (BEV) project, put the car in 2011 market. Ford's North American International Auto Show in Detroit this year, announced this electric car project. Ford's electric vehicle strategy as the key models, the model for the small car, ideal for travel distance up to about 160 kilometers (100 miles), no gasoline consumption, consumers need to worry about than petrol vehicles up to the performance of reducing expectations. Ford BEV will give consumers the same model with the traditional driving experience, with a similar control system, only faster smoother, quieter, zero emissions.

"The model to join the Ford product line and to occupy an important position, mainly because of its environmental and economical characteristics." Magna co-CEO Don. Walker said, "In addition, the two sides cooperate fully in the project showed that energy independence and reduce carbon dioxide emissions, the automotive industry need for improvement of advanced technology, OEMs and suppliers need to share expertise, sharing investment costs and full cooperation. "

"Ford and Magna BEV in cooperation on the project, based on the two sides to explore the consensus outlook of electric vehicles," Ford vice president of product development, Kuzak (Derrick Kuzak), "said Mr. cooperation of the two major international companies, can complement technical expertise to achieve the common goal of conveying to the market can be comparable with the traditional zero-emission car battery-powered cars. "

Magna Powertrain will be responsible for providing key components and battery modules. Meanwhile, in electric propulsion and other new systems engineering and technical integration, Magna will play a key role.

Vehicle / Technology Description:

Electric small car;

Single-speed gearbox;

Battery capacity available to travel about 160 kilometers (100 miles);

With battery charger, 110 volt or 220 volt standard outlet can be used;

Charging time: 110-volt power supply 12 hours; 220 volt power supply 6 hours;

Heating, ventilation and air conditioning compressor high-pressure;

High-pressure auxiliary heating.

BEV project with the cooperation of Ford Motor Company that to the industry, the Magna science and technology innovation as the industry leader in the material application, process management and product invention, the same commitment. From reducing vehicle weight to increase comfort, until the cast mingled with the cooperation of customers roads, Magna in the design, engineering and manufacturing expertise, continue to develop a new generation of cars and trucks contribute to their own strength.

Lithium Battery and Hybrid cars

The New York Mercantile Exchange, August crude oil futures prices for delivery in July 3 145 U.S. dollars a barrel, the highest recorded. In this week, OPEC weekly average oil prices to new highs. In fact, for some time, high oil prices and the resulting series of political and economic and social issues deeply hurt the car manufacturer. In the United States, the three auto makers have cut production of large pickup trucks, SUV, increase energy-saving small cars or crossovers. However, changing the structure of existing products, while car manufacturers have already "obvious": before you have to master the technology of alternative energy vehicles.

"Battery is the core issue." General Motors R & D lab materials laboratory director Mark? Sheet Mubarak said. Have been successful experiences with a certain market hybrid car, the battery technology in deciding the fate of the car key. It is understood that currently includes the Toyota Prius (configuration parameters Gallery) models, including hybrid vehicles use nickel-metal hydride batteries. And the battery technology itself has limitations. Remove the price factors, on the one hand, the decision by the material limits the size of storage capacity, lack of capacity Ni-MH battery life, on the other hand, it can not be extrapolated charging.

Li-ion battery is a high voltage, charge and discharge, long life, fast charging, self-discharge rate, wide operating temperature range, etc., have become the most cars and parts enterprises and the main direction of choice. Data show that, compared to nickel-metal hydride batteries, hybrid electric vehicles using lithium batteries can make the weight decreased by 40% to 50% and the volume reduced by 20% to 30%, energy efficiency has improved to some extent. Optimistic forecast said that in the near future, the vehicle will decrease the cost of lithium batteries to nickel-metal hydride battery 2 / 3.

Chinese stainless steel market on October 9 Nickel-based product pricing plunge

Chinese stainless steel market on October 9 run remains in the doldrums, the market traded good, pessimistic atmosphere filled the air, nickel stainless steel products fell sharply quotes, 200 series, 400 series also showed downward trend.
