The market for dc-dc converters will continue to grow, but the rate and
trajectory of that growth are being altered by numerous factors. In the near
term, growth will slow as result of the current economic downturn. However,
the impact of today' s economic troubles will vary widely from potentially
devastating to hardly noticeable, depending on the specific market segment and
product category being considered. One of the accomplishments of this current
analysis is to identify the varying intensities of these changing economic
dynamics. Critical and often subtle longer-term trends are also identified and
discussed.
