The market for electronic components in France
The electronic components market is a very large market. We consider that an electronic component is an element intended to be assembled with others in order to realize one or more electronic functions. The components form many types and categories, they meet various industrial needs, especially because of their electrical characteristics. The assembly of these electronic components is defined beforehand in a layout diagram which precedes the installation of these components in an electronic circuit.

The electronic components market is a very large market. We consider that an electronic component is an element intended to be assembled with others in order to realize one or more electronic functions. The components form many types and categories, they meet various industrial needs, especially because of their electrical characteristics. The assembly of these electronic components is defined beforehand in a layout diagram which precedes the installation of these components in an electronic circuit.
We traditionally distinguish two categories of components, the active components (diode, transistor, integrated circuit, etc.) and the passive components (resistance, capacitors, etc.). Active components are electronic components that increase the power of a signal (voltage or current), while passive components do not increase the power of a signal, and can even reduce this power in some cases.
On a global scale, it is possible to observe that the world market for electronic components has been doing well for several years. on a global scale, the market is worth nearly $1,400 billion.
Indeed, the printed circuit board and semiconductor segments are relatively dynamic, driven by the rapid development of several innovations such as 5G, electronic cars or the democratization of renewable energy. Due to the complexity of production methods, the electronic components market is largely concentrated and a few international players share the majority of market shares. Thus, among the leaders of this market, we can name Intel, Samsung Electronics or Qualcomm and TSMC.
The market is largely driven by the many electronic and technological innovations that are available on many markets for very diverse productions. In France, the electronic components market is of strategic importance. While the major foreign players, who account for most of the world's market share, play an important role in the French market, a number of local players such as Thales and STMicroelectronics also play an important role at the national and European levels.
