Consumer Compass, Inverters, and Automotive Drive Thriving Magnetic Sensor Market  
Magnetic Sensors Market Tracker - H1 2012 
After spectacular growth in 2010 fueled by strong recovery following the recession, the market for semiconductor-based magnetic sensors grew another 22.4% to reach close to $1.5 billion in 2011. The biggest market segment—automotive—helped lead the charge thanks to continued strong car sales, especially in the mid- and luxury segments, while consumer and mobile handset compasses were already pushing strongly last year and will accelerate the market at a CAGR of 9.3% over the next 5 years. By this time, the market will exceed $2.3 billion...
