Automotive IC Market

Market Overview:

The global automotive IC market size reached US$ 49.1 Billion in 2022. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 90.4 Billion by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 10.3% during 2023-2028. The rising adoption of autonomous vehicles, the implementation of stringent government regulations for driver safety and security, and the increasing sales of luxury and premium cars represent some of the key factors driving the market.

Automotive IC refers to a microchip made up of silicon that encompasses the function of an oscillator, microprocessor, timer, amplifier, and memory, customized for a vehicle system. A semiconductor wafer of a few square millimeters is built with numerous transistors, capacitors, and resistors on a single chip to enhance the vehicle's performance. Automobile IC is critical to the differentiation of vehicles as well as enhancing their overall performance and capabilities. It provides highly stable supply voltage for analog radar frontends and separates supply voltages for the digital monolithic microwave parts and external local interconnected network (LIN) bus transceivers. The automotive IC is essential for enabling low emissions and high efficiency of powertrain systems and supporting quick responses of lifesaving systems. As a result, advanced automotive ICs are used in safety systems, driver assistance, powertrain control, and infotainment console of an automobile. In addition, they are driving the miniaturization of automotive electronic systems.

Automotive IC Market Trends:

The escalating demand for autonomous vehicles among the masses is a significant factor propelling the growth of the market. In addition, the introduction of stringent government regulations for the safety and security of drivers is creating a positive outlook on the market. Moreover, the integration of the internet of things (IoT) in the automotive sector is providing an impetus to the market. Besides this, the augmenting adoption of advanced driver safety and security features in automobiles is resulting in a higher product uptake on the global level. The market is further fueled by the increasing sales of luxury and premium cars with the latest connected vehicle facilities, such as transmission control and in-vehicle communication system. However, the rising prices of semiconductor chips and the growing issues related to the design complexity are some of the factors that are impeding the market growth. On the contrary, the rapid electrification of passenger cars, along with continual innovations in electric vehicles (EVs), is creating lucrative growth opportunities in the market. Apart from this, numerous strategies adopted by the key players, including partnerships, collaborations, and mergers and acquisitions (M&As) to enhance their geographical presence are further providing a boost to the market. Some of the other factors contributing to the market include rapid urbanization and industrialization, considerable growth in the automotive and transportation sectors, fierce competition among the key players, inflating disposable income levels and extensive research and development (R&D) activities.
