CEA's Steve Koenig: Economy may be ice cold, but CE sales are still warm 11/11/2008

Steve Koenig, director of industry analysis at the CEA (Consumer Electronics Association) talks with Electronic Business ahead of the group's update this afternoon about the state of the consumer electronics industry as it moves into a holiday season hampered by the bleak economy. Read on to see what's selling and why CE products continue to show revenue growth.

Choosing the right processor candidate: the 35th annual microprocessor directory 10/30/2008

Welcome to the 35th annual EDN microprocessor/microcontroller directory. Once again, the companies and devices in the directory continue to evolve and grow in number. The company roster and product listings are testaments to the variety of processors available and the tremendous variation among requirements, features, and types of applications for which designers are using microprocessors and microcontrollers.

Apple's iPhone production could fall 40%, hurt chip suppliers' Q4s, analysts say 11/3/2008

FBR Research supply chain checks find that Apple's iPhone production plans are being revised lower, which suggests the macroecomomic weakness is impacting even high-end consumers and that "no market segment will be spared in this global downturn." Chip suppliers, including Broadcom and Marvell, will feel a Q4 pinch on the production cuts, the firm says.
