In el ectronics manufacturing, IC (integrated circuit) packa ging is the final s tage of semiconductor device fabrication, in which, the tiny block of semiconducting material is encased in a supporting case that prevents physical damage and corrosion. The increasing efforts to make the electronic packaging highly resourceful has led to amplified usage in a myriad of applications. The reduction in package size is inversely proportional to the power dissipation. Therefore, the players in the market are striving to develop semiconductors that can retain power with reduced size. For instance, NXP semiconductors achieved 55% reduction in package size for its transistors range by retaining the same power performance，both devices take up an area space of 2 mm by 2 mm. These trends drive the growth of the miniaturized semiconductor and IC packaging markets. This has also resulted in the development of three-dimensional integrated circuits (3D IC) technology, which is increasingly adopted across various space-constrained applications, including portable consumer electronic devices, sensors, MEMS, and industrial products, as it increases the overall performance of the products regarding speed, durability, low power consumption, lightweight, and memory.

Large number of next gen memory technologies are under development which promise to meet the growing demand of consumer electronics and enterprise storage systems and applications. Smart phone and other consumer electronics OEMs in particular are looking for the next big competitive advantage, and all signs point to new memory technologies as the most powerful choice. The traditional memories, DRAM and NAND, are falling off Moore's law and therefore research and development is going on for new memory devices. Also, a lot of industries are experiencing technology convergence, resulting in increased complexity of their systems. This convergence is evidenced in numerous devices such as automotive, smartphones, wireless communication and smart factories. In 2017, the information electronics industry saw another peak which resulted in the serious shortage of spare parts. Thus, manufacturers increased their production capacity to meet demand supply gap. Also, introduction of innovative features such as the face recognition in mobile phone by Apple Computer, which later fermented on many application surfaces, including the other mobile phones, access control, unmanned vehicles, automotive, etc. This will increase the demand for highly complex natured integrated circuits (ICs) in coming years. Such trends along with increasing complexity in consumer electronics design and growing automotive expertise is also expected to drive the demand for SLC NAND flash memory worldwide.

Wearable technology is an emerging trend that integrates electronics to the daily activities and fits into the changing lifestyles and can be worn on any part of the body. The ability to connect to the Internet, and enabling data exchange between a network and a device, is the driving factor that leads to the trend of wearable technology. Wearables imply wristbands that are launched by companies, like Fitbit, Jawbone, and Apple, and act as activity trackers, which have gained significant traction, owing to the boom in the fitness trend across consumers. The number of wristbands/fitness trackers by Fitbit that monitor heart rate and physical activity increased from 58,000 in 2010 to 22.295 million in 2016. After 2016, various other companies expanded their market reach by introducing new products, and Fitbit's reported number of devices sold in 2018 stood at 13.939 million. The decreased y-o-y sales were attributed to the increased share of other fitness tracker providers. The smartwatch category is also experiencing a rise, owing to the additional features, like the brand that suits the everyday lifestyle. Strong brands, such as Apple and Fossil, are keeping the pricing consistent with the price bands of traditional watches, to maintain their revenues. With Google’s WearOS, many other premium watchmakers, such as TAG and Armani, have entered the segment.

An air brake or a compressed air brake system, is a type of friction brake for vehicles in which compressed air pressing on a piston is used to apply the pressure to the brake pad needed to stop the vehicle. Air brakes are used in large heavy vehicles, particularly those having multiple trailers, which must be linked into the brake system, such as trucks, buses, trailers, and semi-trailers, in addition to their use in railroad trains. George Westinghouse first developed air brakes for use in railway service. Air brake systems are typically used on heavy trucks and buses. The air brake system has a wider application in service brakes, parking brakes, and includes wider range of components such as control pedal, an air storage tank, and various other components. The air brake system is a type of friction brake for vehicles in which compressed air pressing on a piston to put pressure in the brake to stop a vehicle. It comprises several components including compressor, governor, tank, air dryer, foot valve, brake chamber, and slack adjuster. Currently, there are two types of air brake system commonly available in the market, namely, disc air brake system and drum air brake system. The air brake system is integrated in heavy as well as commercial vehicles to apply more massive brake effort. The increased demand for air brakes has positively impacted the air brake system market.
