Personal Appliances Channel

The TechInsights Personal Appliances Channel provides Product Teardown Reports that cover the rich and rapidly evolving realm of portable entertainment, navigation, and multimedia products for the consumer. Product categories in Personal Appliances include MP3 players, personal media players (PMPs), portable navigation devices (PNDs), handheld game machines, and personal information appliances.

Each Full Product Teardown Report in the Personal Appliances Channel includes executive summary of findings, a full product bill-of-materials with cost estimates, power-consumption measurements, a detailed sequence of product teardown photos, board shots with annotations, copious system- and sub-system level complexity and cost metrics, and analysis of semiconductor content based on the decapping, inspection, and measurement of all ICs. Also available through the Channel are occasional "QuickTurn Teardown" reports on products of particularly high interest to the TechInsights customer base.

Significant discounts on the license fees for TechInsights product teardown reports in the Personal Appliances Channel are available with the purchase of a Channel License. For more information, contact TechInsights at teardown@ubmtechinsights.com
