Description
Electronic components are primarily used to control the flow of electrical currents for information processing and system control. They are the smallest units that make up circuits and are typically simple with a single function, such as capacitors and resistors.
Electronic devices, on the other hand, are more complex functional units composed of multiple components, each having a specific function.
The data is published by the Japan Electronics and Information Technology Industries Association (JEITA).
The indicator calculates the amount of Japan's exports to foreign countries. The accumulated value sums up the export amount data from January of each year to the statistical month, allowing for an observation of data growth and future trends.
The data is updated monthly.
