Description
Passive components include resistors, capacitors, and inductors, which operate without requiring an external power source. These components are primarily used for signal stabilization, filtering, and circuit adjustment. Changes in their production value reflect the demand for fundamental electronic components, closely linked to the development of the end-user electronics market.
The data is compiled and published by the Japan Electronics and Information Technology Industries Association (JEITA).
The indicator tracks foreign imports to Japan, with the accumulated year-over-year rate reflecting growth or decline in total value from January to the statistical month compared to the previous year.
The data is updated monthly.
