U.S. Electronic Component Shipments to Reach $95.5 Billion in 2022
May 1, 2018 | PRNewswireEstimated reading time: 1 minute
U.S. shipments of electronic components are forecast to reach $95.5 billion in 2022, according to Electronic Components: United States, a report recently released by Freedonia Focus Reports. Increasing global output of products that utilize electronic components will drive gains, as the supply chains for many of these industries are highly globalized.
In addition, the expanding scope of products in which electronic components are used will support growth. For instance, motor vehicles are increasingly employing electronic components as vehicle electronic systems become more sophisticated and advanced drivetrain components become more widespread. Common motor vehicle features all employ electronic components, including airbags, mirror and wiper controls, and power doors and windows.
In addition, the growing production of hybrid- and all-electric vehicles, which contain advanced electronic content, aids electronic component sales. The increasing prevalence of advanced driver assistant systems – including adaptive cruise control, automatic braking, back-up cameras, forward collision warning, lane departure warning, and parking assistance – will also support demand for electronic components in the automotive industry.

Knocking Down the Bone Pile: Gold Mitigation for Class 2 Electronics
05/07/2025 | Nash Bell -- Column: Knocking Down the Bone PileIn electronic assemblies, the integrity of connections between components is paramount for ensuring reliability and performance. Gold embrittlement and dissolution are two critical phenomena that can compromise this integrity. Gold embrittlement occurs when gold diffuses into solder joints or alloys, resulting in mechanical brittleness and an increased susceptibility to cracking. Conversely, gold dissolution involves the melting away of gold into solder or metal matrices, potentially altering the electrical and mechanical properties of the joint.
