Introduction of 5G Mobile Communication to Fuel Demand for Power Semiconductors
Among the key growth drivers, the introduction of fifth-generation (5G) mobile communication worldwide is a key factor driving the global power semiconductor market. Fifth-generation (5G) mobile communication which is anticipated to commence from 2018; the number of 5G mobile base stations is anticipated to be more than 4G base stations. Mobile communication requires power semiconductors especially radio frequency (RF) type. 5G base stations are likely to deploy several RF power amplifiers per base station, with 5G base stations likely to be built in large numbers. Silicon Carbide (SiC), GaN (Gallium Nitride), GaAs (Gallium Arsanide) are some of the key compounds that are used in the manufacture of power semiconductors for 5G mobile communication. For example, Nokia Bell Labs, Mitsubishi Electric, and the Center for Wireless Communications have announced a joint venture for the development of high speed GaN-based power amplifier. GaN RF are anticipated to represent almost one fourth of all mobile communication infrastructure by 2017 end.
Increasing Adoption of Electric Vehicles to Benefit Market
The heavy consumption of power semiconductors across a host of end use industries such as automotive, industrial, telecommunication, consumer electronics, healthcare, aerospace & defense, and renewable energy among others is a key growth driver of power semiconductor market. Among these, automotive electronics accounts for high consumption of semiconductors. With the rise in electric vehicles, hybrid electric vehicles, and plug-in electric vehicles, deployment of semiconductors in cars has increased manifold. Also, with the advent of drive-by-wire or x-by-wire technologies such as electronic throttle control, steer-by-wire, or shift-by-wire, electric content are considerably replacing mechanical vehicle parts. These factors are leading to the growth of automotive electronics segment in the worldwide power semiconductor market.
