Therefore, ESC is an important factor to promote power converter consumption

Other main applications include seat airbag system in the position to determine, and power converter .

Industrial and power converter, but also will be the main force of the power converter market growth. 

Although revenues in this field is still small -- just over $100 million in 2016, is expected to but sensor used by the power converter price is much higher than consumer products and household appliances in the power converter. 

Market in the field of the driving factors include better performance of motor, through the use of feedback control and use less power; Higher power converter efficiency in solar inverter  devices,solar inverter device is mainly used in commercial applications. 

For industrial motors, the efficiency standard is prompting them to use the feedback circuit and solar inverter.

Solar inverter other expansion opportunities and position sensor, including general industrial applications; Medical applications of electric measuring flu; Equipment, aviation compass, switch; And the encoder.

Technology market differentiation is changing

Due to the solar inverter will be able to use different technology, its operating income structure will change. 

By 2016, 70% of the solar inverters  market revenue will come from a hall effect IC, and the rest 30% will come from the anisotropic solar inverters, the giant magnetic resistance (GMR) and tunneling solar inverters type of solar inverters technology.

Hall sensor technology providers, including Japan Asahi Kasei Microsystems, this is the hall element and leading bulk supplier of integrated circuits, its products are used in a variety of applications; Allegro Micro - systems, followed by the United States is a important hall IC supplier.

Germany's infineon hall-effect sensor products, also introduced more geared to the needs of automotive applications, expanded its MR product line at the same time.

Micronas, Switzerland is one of the important suppliers,solar inverters linear sensors are beginning to provide 3 d hall integrated circuit. 

Belgium Melexis supply hall integrated circuit, and take the lead in put out 3 d hall IC.

Austrian ams also introduced products, 3 d hall is expected in the near future sales in the market.
