Yole expects LED market in 2012 to $10 billion 300 million

Although LED supports digital color control, light shaping and fast and frequent switch, and has the advantages of energy saving and environmental protection, but the LED in colour and design and cost optimization remain to be developed, especially the overall lighting market, there are still technical work to overcome. The semiconductor company also need to continuously improve the process.

According to the French Market Research Yole predicts that by 2012, the overall LED market will reach $10 billion 300 million. Among them, the height and ultra-high brightness LED total will reach $4 billion 450 million, almost $783 million in 2007 was estimated at $5.5.

In addition to optical efficiency and light output, the future of LED to solve the problem also includes: heat management, electronic drives and durable, and a variety of color temperature. Manufacturers must make progress in optics, packaging, testing, and screening (binning) technologies to address these issues.
