Digital visual interface (DVI) and sister technology high-definition multimedia interface (HDMI) are both high-bandwidth digital interface specifications. DVI-enabled shipments will peak at 117 million in both 2007 and 2008, but should decline thereafter due to the entry of the DisplayPort in the PC and PC peripheral segment.
HDMI was immediately successful upon its 2003 introduction, driven primarily by the CE segment. There were HDMI ports in the vast majority of digital televisions, DVD players and recorders, and A/V receivers shipped in 2007. A smaller HDMI port is leading to increased penetration of portable devices, such as digital camcorders and digital still cameras.
This report contains analysis and five-year annual worldwide forecasts for the penetration of DVI and HDMI into 22 different applications in PCs, PC peripherals, CE, and communications devices. Five-year average selling price forecasts for discrete DVI and HDMI transmitters and receivers are provided. Past history of penetration forecasts back to 2006 is also included, in addition to brief profiles of major DVI and HDMI silicon and IP suppliers. Survey data on HDMI familiarity and use from consumers in the US , UK , Germany , France , Japan , and Korea is also included.
1394 2008: Is FireWire Still Burning?
http://www.instat.com/abstract.asp?id=161&SKU=IN0804096MI
IEEE 1394 (1394) is a high-speed serial bus found in PCs, PC peripherals, and consumer electronics (CE) devices. The technology is facing significant challenges in 2008. 1394 suffers from being the second choice technology in many product segments. 1394 market share in the PC market is shrinking, and is dwarfed by high-speed USB’s 100% penetration. This has helped high-speed USB to become the interface of choice for PC peripherals such as printers, scanners, and external hard disk drives.
In the CE segment, 1394 is being surpassed by HDMI as the digital interface of choice in digital televisions, set-top boxes, and DVD players. Even in markets where 1394 was very strong, such as digital camcorders, it is being challenged by high-speed USB. In the automotive segment, 1394 has been slow to market, and MOST is the dominant auto networking interface. In the industrial segment 1394 is found primarily in security and machine vision cameras.
This report contains analysis and five-year forecasts for all 1394-enabled products, breaking out each PC, PC peripheral, CE, automotive, or industrial application by penetration of 1394a and 1394b for each forecast year. Analysis is provided for all types of 1394, including 1394c and 1394 over Coax. Brief profiles of major 1394 silicon and IP suppliers are also provided.
