✍ Yole Group writes - Regional dynamics of the global microcontroller market About four out of five processors are #microcontrollers (MCUs), which are essential to everyday technologies like cars, airplanes, appliances, electronics, and medical devices. Without them, many industries would stall or become too costly... While they may not grab headlines, MCUs are crucial to the #semiconductor market. As the industry shifts toward nationalized onshoring, understanding this market and its key regions is vital. Today, Thomas Hackenberg from Yole Group, invites you to deep dive into the #MCU ecosystem and get a better understanding of the dynamics per region. 🔦 Feel free to meet and discuss with Thomas at embedded world Exhibition&Conference North America this week. 👉 Enjoy reading this new Yole Group's snapshot extracted from the new report, Status of the Microcontroler Industry on https://lnkd.in/dyjV8UW5

📊 Market & Technology - MicroLED - Markets, Applications and Competitive Landscape 2024 After a challenging '#AR winter' from 2021 to 2023, #AI integration is sparking new optimism for LEDoS microdisplays in augmented reality. Yet, with Apple’s absence and strict requirements, #microLED is struggling to gain traction in smartphones, where #OLED sets a high bar. Key opportunities lie in ultra-large TVs (>100”) with rising demand, and niche applications like #automotive, retail, avionics, and military simulators, where microLED’s transparency and modularity offer unique value. Partners like AUO (smartwatch displays) and Century Display (panel pilot line) are making strides, though cost and supply chain maturity remain hurdles. The potential is there—now it's a matter of overcoming these challenges! 👉 Discover the potential of microLED display applications, our forecasts, adoption dynamics, competitive landscape, supply chain analysis, key industry players, and emerging ecosystems in our report: https://lnkd.in/enXmT--Z ✍Eric Virey
