LONDON, March 6/PRNewswire/ -- The proliferation of electronic content in automobiles will further underline the importance of fault-tolerant electronic components to minimise errors and avoid accidents. While fault tolerance in automobiles is still at an early stage, it is projected to register steady growth before moving up into higher gear.

If you are interested in a virtual brochure, which provides manufacturers, end users, and other industry participants with an overview of the latest analysis of the Strategic Assessment of Fault Tolerant Solutions in Automobiles, then send an e-mail to Michael Banks, Corporate Communications, at michael.banks@frost.com with your full name, company name, title, telephone number, fax number, and e-mail address. Upon receipt of the above information, an overview will be sent to you by e-mail.
Electronic components are used in certain important applications including safety, security and powertrain. These require fault-tolerant processors, microcontrollers and other components, as failures in any of these critical mechanisms can cause accidents. As a result, fault-tolerant solutions are gaining increasing importance in the automotive sector.

"The increasing deployment of electronic content in automobiles will drive demand for fault-tolerant solutions in telematics, as well as in vehicle safety and security," notes Frost & Sullivan Research Analyst Bonnie Varghese K. "Fault-tolerant devices are being widely adopted in areas where there is a higher risk of human error, such as in collision avoidance and driver assistance applications."

Europe will be the largest revenue generator because of its early technological acceptance of fault-tolerant solutions and related government regulations. However, long lead times threaten to act as a brake on overall market growth.

"Critical applications in automobiles such as anti-lock braking systems (ABS) and powertrain are becoming increasingly fault tolerant, which means they must undergo several tests and quality certifications before being implemented," explains Mr Varghese. "As a result, it will take longer before investments in designing and developing products can be realised, a trend that will discourage the potential entry of smaller participants."

In order to alleviate automobile manufacturers' concerns and accelerate the uptake of fault-tolerant solutions, market participants will need to focus on improving processes and standardising protocols.
