Capacitor Industry Overview
The capacitor market is a semi-consolidated market. The market is competitive with the presence of various large-scale manufacturers in the market across the globe. The capacitor market has long-standing established players who have made significant investments. These companies leverage strategic collaborative initiatives to increase their market share and profitability. Some of the prominent vendors in the market include Murata Manufacturing Co., Ltd., TDK Corporation, KEMET Corporation, Vishay Intertechnology, Inc., and WIMA GmbH & Co. KG, among others.
- November 2023: ROHM has developed the BTD1RVFL series, a new line of silicon capacitors. These devices are gaining popularity in the smartphone and wearable device industries. Due to their extensive experience in silicon semiconductor processing, the company has achieved higher performance in a more compact design. By utilizing thin-film technology, their silicon capacitors offer a greater capacitance in a thinner form compared to the current multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs) available in the market.
- April 2023: Kyocera Corporation announced that the company's Electronic Components Division developed a new capacitor (MLCC) with EIA 0201 size, with a capacitance of 10 microfarads, which the company claims to be the industry's highest among MLCCs in the 0201 case size. The dimensions of the capacitor are 0.6 mm x 0.3 mm.
