**History of Coverage**

Dedalus Consulting has prepared reports on the frequency control and timing industry since 1994 starting with an in-depth analysis of the global shifts in production and consumption in the quartz crystal and oscillators industry. Over the next next several years into the early 2000's, reporting expanded to include other types of frequency control devices such as atomic frequency standards, SAW/BAW devices, and ceramic resonators. Shortly thereafter, we added silicon timing including MEMS oscillators to our coverage as that market started commercially developing. Presently, we've expanded our research and database again to include filters, SoCs, PLLs, RTCs, and synthesizers.

In 2017, we expanded our product and services offerings to include not only printed and digital reports, but also a searchable database of our complete knowledgebase in the frequency control &amp; timing space. Our continuing goal is to have the most comprehensive research in the timing space. Thus, our industry knowledge, experience, and reliability make us the most trusted source for market and competitive intelligence.

**Methodology &amp; Sources**

Dedalus Consulting employs all current market and competitive intelligence techniques in order to ensure comprehensive research and analysis. This includes primary and secondary research. The research methodology applies generally to all database services, published and custom research. It can also be modified to suit a project and the client’s specific objectives.
