Atheros and Marvell are arguably the leaders.

Some provide data about their chipsets, others won't even publish a
pinout of their chips...

So do your research and make sure you can get tech data.

Assuming you qualify as an OEM, all chipset vendors provide specs
(including pinouts), and most provide evaluation kits with reference
designs.

ADMTek
Agere (Lucent)
Airgo
Aironet
Atheros
Atmel
Broadcom
InProComm
Intel (Centrino)
Intersil/Frisbee
IPW (Intel)
Javelin
Marvel
NWN (3com)
Orinoco
Philips (Centrino)
Prism (Harris/Intersil/etc)
Ralink
Realtek
Symbol
Texas Instruments
Zydas

Some drivel:
- Intel 2100 series Centrino uses wireless chips from Philips.
- IPW is Intel ProSet Wireless starting with 2200.
- Orinocco is actually a mess of manufacturers (in order) from:
Wavelan, Orinoco, Lucent, Agere, Avaya, and Proxim which use Prism
chipsets from Harris, Intersil, Conexant, Frisbee, and Javelin.
- Symbol uses various chip foundries.
- NWN is "No Wires Needed" in Netherlands. I think (not sure) they're
now part of Alvarion/Breezecom.
- Aironet is owned by Cisco.

Thank you very much, Jeff.

Can you please tell me where do you find these info and how do you do this
research?
What site do you use and what key words do you use?

Which are the popular chip set with wide consumer usage? On what consumer
product?
What the future growth of WiFi business? What is the good business
opportunities?
Thank you for your advise.

Sigh. I recycles my own posting to alt.internet.wireless a few years
ago.

I don't recall where I obtained the list. I might have scraped parts
from here:
| http://www.linux-wlan.org/docs/wlan_adapters.html.gz
There are also a few recent startups that I left out.

Broadcom, Intel, and Prism own the bulk of the market. However, each
of these vendors have multiple chipset designed for specific target
applications. I can probably dig out sales figures, but I'm lazy
tonite.

I have some ideas in this area, but I'm certainly not going to give
them away for free. Sorry, but I have to pass.

As always, "Google is your friend:"

Not offhand. Both manufacturers have several models. I suggest you
obtain the model numbers and FCCID from these products and look them
up on the FCCID web site. There's quite a bit of internal information
there. You can usually identify the chipset from the internal photos.
