Novellus Systems Inc. develops, manufactures, sells, and services semiconductor equipment used in the fabrication of integrated circuits. It is a leading supplier of chemical vapor deposition (CVD), plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD), physical vapor deposition (PVD), electrochemical deposition (ECD), ultraviolet thermal processing (UVTP), and surface preparation equipment used in the manufacturing of semiconductors.
Novellus Systems was founded in 1984 and is headquartered in San Jose, California. The company maintains engineering & manufacturing facilities in Tualatin, Oregon and San Jose, California. Also, Novellus has a component design and software development facility in Bangalore, India.
approximately $3 - 4.5 billion by 2011 despite a highly price sensitive market that tends to be an obstacle to the growth of automotive electronic content in Indian cars.
Even though India is the fourth largest car market in Asia, fifth largest commercial vehicle manufacturer in the world, and the second largest two-wheeler manufacturer in the world, the average electronic content per vehicle in India is still much less as compared to the U.S. and other countries. Currently automotive electronic components penetration is high in electronic engine management systems, and media/audio systems; and fairly low in automatic transmission, safety systems, telematics, body electronics and immobilizer systems.
Opportunities
The import market for superior quality automotive electronics items is growing fueled by the increasing awareness and demand by Indian consumers for technologically advanced products. Following government initiatives towards enforcement of stronger safety and emission/environment norms, the automotive sensors and automotive body electronics segments, which represent less than 10 percent of the total automotive electronics market currently are expected to witness very high growth rates creating opportunities for suppliers. By 2015, the Indian automotive market would adhere to global norms. Once government initiatives on vehicle safety regulations are also implemented, rapid growth in the safety electronics segment is also to be expected, which offers opportunities for U.S. safety system manufacturers.
While automotive engine management and safety systems are to be the main market drivers for Indian automotive electronics, use of advanced digital instrumentation and electronic ignition systems is also on the rise.
Major Players
Major players in India for safety systems include Haryana-based, Sona Koyo Steering Systems Ltd. – a joint venture between Indian Sona Systems and Koyo Seiko company of Japan, and Chennai- based, Sundaram Clayton Ltd. of the TVS group; and Sony Electronics, and Pioneer Electronics in the automotive entertainment segment. Some of the of popular Indian automotive electronics equipment and service suppliers include Textek Electronics of Coimbatore; CG-CG Smith Software a part of KPIT Cummins Infosystems based in Bangalore, a leading software and systems serviceprovider for embedded applications for automotive electronics; and TACO Sasken Automotive Electronics also based inBangalore – a joint venture between Tata Autocomp Systems and Sasken Communication Technologies dealing in design, development of automotive electronic products in telematics, and infotainment. Other important automotive electronic component suppliers are: Veeyessar Industrial Products Pvt Ltd in Hosur; and Mico-Bosch, and Electronic Automation Pvt. Ltd. in Bangalore.
Global dealers such as Avnet of the U.S., and Arrow Asia, a subsidiary of New York-based, Arrow Electronics also have a fairly strong presence in the Indian automotive electronics market.
Prospective Buyers
The Indian car industry is far from being saturated providing scope for volume growth. Driven by the booming economic growth and rising demand, Indian car industry is attracting major car players from all around the world. All the major automobile and automotive component multinational corporations (MNCs) have operations in India – having either opened their manufacturing plants in India or are importing vehicles to cater to the huge Indian market.
Major MNCs include Suzuki, Toyota, Honda, Hyundai, Ford, General Automotive Motors, BMW, Denso, Delphi, Bosch, Lear, Johnson Controls, Visteon, Faurecia, TRW Automotive, and many more.
