Asia Pacific Analog-to-Digital Converter Market Key Players and Forecast by 2027

Analog-to-digital converter market in the Asia Pacific is expected to grow from US$ 761.3 Mn in 2018 to US$ 1,512.9 Mn by the year 2027 with a CAGR of 8.0% from the year 2019 to 2027.

The growing demand for advancements in the data acquisition arena and an increase in the demand for high-resolution content are the key factors driving the growth of the analog-to-digital converter market. Moreover, the increasing technological developments in the automotive industry is anticipated to boost the analog-to-digital converter market growth in the near future. The data acquisition solutions support in measuring voltage, current, temperature, and other parameters. It processes the data for display and analysis. Advancements in the data acquisition arena, including the inclusion of network connectivity, data analysis & reporting software, and remote control & monitoring options is steering the market demand for analog-to-digital converters. At the core of these systems is an ADC. This chip receives data from the environment, and it is converted into discrete levels that are interpreted by the processors. These discrete levels resemble the smallest measurable change in the signal that is being measured. The resolution of an analog-to-digital converter is fundamentally analogous to the ticks denoted on a measuring stick. Measuring sticks with mm ticks have more resolution than those with cm ticks. The data acquisition system demand is anticipated to grow in the forecast period on account of technological advances and automation trend in industries. This, in turn, is supporting the growth of analog-to-digital converter market.

Analog-to-digital converter market by product type is classified into integrating ADC, delta-sigma ADC, successive approximation ADC, ramp ADC, and others. The Successive approximation ADC segment led the analog-to-digital converter market in the year 2018 with the highest market share and is expected to flourish its dominance during the forecast period. On the other hand, the Delta-sigma ADC segment has the second-highest market share in 2018 and is expected to have the fastest growth rate in the near future. A successive approximation ADC converts continuous analog waveform into discrete digital outcome with the help of a binary search across all the possible levels of quantization. The register of successive approximation is initialized for the most significant bit (MSB) to be equalized to digital 1. This code is then inputted into the DAC that supplies the analog equivalent code into for comparison in the comparator circuit with sampled voltage input. Successive approximation is an advanced version of digital ramp ADC which was designed for increasing the operation speed. In SAR, the normal counter is substituted with a successive approximation register.

China dominated the analog-to-digital converter market in 2018 and is expected to dominate the market with the highest share in the Asia Pacific region through the forecast period. 5G is cited as a priority in the government’s 13th Five-year Plan. The government has granted contracts to technology heavyweights ZTE and Huawei, around US$72 Mn for technology development to start with the 5G deployments. China’s largest telecommunication providers aim to invest nearly US$ 411 Bn for the introduction 5G by 2030. In addition to this, China Mobile conducts 5G trials with an aim to commence use of 5G by 2019 with 10, 000 5G base stations by 2020. Also, in 2019, Huawei presented a first core chip particularly developed for 5G base stations. The figure given below highlights the revenue share of the rest of Asia Pacific in the analog-to-digital converter market in the forecast period:
