LED lighting how to grasp the cost and technology?

Lighting market has undoubtedly become the LED industry continues to maintain rapid growth of the most important driving engine. According to the survey report, LED lighting penetration in the overall lighting market will increase to 32.7%, is expected in 2014 LED lighting output will reach $17 billion 800 million, an increase of 68% compared to 2013. It is understood that the lighting market is the fastest growing, is the largest market, as long as grasp the trend, companies have the opportunity to expand revenue, especially commercial and outdoor areas will still develop faster than household lighting, therefore, for the business market development programs will help to seize the market.

LED bulb lamp and lamp penetration rate of 20% and 15% respectively, in addition, integrated LED lamp (such as high-power LED floodlight) demand is also rising, especially for intelligent lighting related projects. In the Chinese market, with the government in the past two years to support efforts to increase the market share of LED lighting is expected to rise to 18.3% in 2015, the total market value of the overall LED industry is expected to break through $20 billion.

LED lighting how to grasp the cost and technology?

However, when the industry is booming, more and more enterprises in different industries in the LED industry chain are beginning to feel the challenge of price competition. The LED power driver IC as an example, with the increase of LED indoor and outdoor lighting penetration, the market demand for lighting power driver chip is in rapid growth, including the traditional IC power supply manufacturers and other industry manufacturers, including a number of companies have moved to the LED driver IC market, resulting in uneven product quality, small power, non dimming field has become a sea of red".

At this stage LED driven product homogenization phenomenon is serious, all kinds of products of IC replication architecture "follow suit" is serious; the blind pursuit of low cost products, shoddy, industry standard LED detection of missing faces severe challenges. LED energy saving, compact application requirements are driving the rapid integration of LED driver chips in 2014 to promote the integration of technology, and the cost continues to decline, the industry will usher in a leading low price and performance led polarization. The value of the LED industry will not just stay in the incandescent lighting needs of the era, because of the higher proportion of silicon LED lighting, which will bring more exciting stories need to drive IC.
