  Increasing demand for wireless communications and consumer electronics to propel the market growth

  
  

The global market is growing favorably due to the rising use of consumer electronics products. Today, a wide range of consumer products, including communication devices (such as smartphones, tablets, smartwatches, and other gadgets), computers (both personal and corporate computers use PCBs), entertainment systems, and home appliances, require semiconductors. The smartphone is the main user of semiconductors in this sector. The smartphone market has seen a lot of rivalry recently. Additionally, it is anticipated that increased mobile phone usage will fuel the global industry. For instance, Ericsson projects that by 2026, the amount of data used by smartphones worldwide would have increased from 32 exabytes per month in 2019. The Indian appliances and consumer electronics (ACE) industry is anticipated to grow at a 9% CAGR to reach INR 3.15 trillion (USD 48.37 billion) in 2022, according to the India Brand Equity Foundation (IBEF). Thus, this factor is driving the market CAGR.Furthermore, along with the rising need for consumer electronics and wireless communications, factors including the rising need for battery-powered, energy-efficient portable gadgets are anticipated to fuel demand and have a beneficial effect on market expansion. Lithium-ion technology, the most dependable power source, powers consumer electronics. For these new batteries, a few limitations pose a challenge. In this sector, extending battery life has grown popular. Around the world, better methods are being explored to produce batteries that consume less energy. Manufacturers are driving this market expansion by increasing the battery capacity of their products, which increases consumer demand for faster charging times. Across all wearable and portable devices, the pattern has remained constant. Fast charging adapters are included right out of the box by manufacturers like OPPO, one plus, Motorola, Samsung, and Apple. Since they encourage their users to use their products less frequently when plugged in, fast charging is an essential part of their marketing efforts. During the projected period, it is expected that demand for energy-efficient battery technologies would increase.However, power semiconductor adoption is anticipated to be fueled by a constant increase in non-conventional energy sources in the IT & consumer electronics, automotive, power distribution, and rail transportation sectors. The adoption of new consumer safety features and more effective power management is being driven by the car industry. SiC technology, for instance, is already being used in various low-power EV applications, including as battery chargers, auxiliary DC-DC converters, and solid-state circuit breakers. Currently, engineers can meet high voltage and power demands affordably thanks to more efficient drivetrains that use semiconductor technology like Silicon Carbide (SiC). As a result, these applications offer significant growth prospects. Thus, it is anticipated that this aspect will accelerate power semiconductor market revenue globally.
