Industry Snapshot

Miscellaneous electronic component manufacturers supply products for five broad areas: communications, such as radios, televisions, and satellite systems; computers and calculators; scientific instruments; military applications, particularly missile and radar systems; and power control and manufacturing equipment, such as machine controllers and industrial robots.

The single largest market for electronic components was radio and television transmission equipment producers, especially satellite services, which in the 2000s was a multi-billion dollar segment of the industry. Telephone and telegraph communications equipment makers were next, and computer manufacturers represented the next largest group of the market.

Other major market segments included: radio and television receiving equipment; guided missiles, space, and aircraft components; X-ray apparatus; and individual consumers. The remainder of output was used in numerous niche markets, such as musical instruments, surgical equipment, children's toys, and surveillance devices.

Products. Most miscellaneous electronic components are used to accomplish or support the primary electronic functions of rectification, amplification, oscillation, and switching and timing. In addition, this industry encompasses several peripheral products, such as headphones and phonograph needles. Finally, some unrelated odds and ends are lumped into this industry, such as hermetic seals for equipment, record cutting styli, and video triggers (except those on remote control devices).
