Market Insight

Increasing Adoption of Internet of Things (IoT) across Industries

Industry 4.0 is the most recent industrial revolution, introducing automation, big data, and artificial intelligence to plants and factories worldwide. The internet of things, or IoT, is one of the foundations of Industry 4.0. The industrial internet of things (IIoT) uses networked sensors and intelligent devices to collect data for artificial intelligence and predictive analytics on the production floor. The Internet of Things (IoT) has changed the way most industrial processes are carried out, including how items are created and distributed, how data is collected from areas that are too dangerous for human operators, and how product quality is maintained. Similarly, the IIoT has been a driving factor behind improved agricultural productivity at lower costs in the face of an ever-increasing population. According to several studies, the adoption of smart solutions driven by IoT in farm operations will expand in the near future. Studies claim that the agriculture business will witness a 20% compound annual growth rate in IoT device installation, with the number of connected devices (agricultural) reaching 225 million by 2024. As a result, the expanding influence of IoT across sectors bodes well for motor driver IC manufacturers, resulting in an increased customer base.

Semiconductor Segment Insights

Furthermore, sandblasting injectors, automobile water pump seals, bearings, pump components, and extrusion dies are all examples of SiC applications that rely on the exceptional hardness, abrasion resistance, and corrosion resistance of silicon carbide.

Motor Type Segment Insights

Based on motor type, the global motor driver IC market is segmented into brushed DC motor, brushless DC motor, and stepper motor. The adoption of brushless DC (BLDC) motors is rapidly increasing in the marketplace and across a wide range of motion control applications owing to their distinct advantages over traditional brushed DC motors, such as lower maintenance, higher operating speeds, more compactness, lower electrical noise, and better torque-to-weight ratios. Despite these advantages, BLDC motors are more expensive than ordinary DC motors since they require a motor driving controller and a rotor position sensor. In industrial positioning and actuation applications, brushless motors are employed. Brushless stepper or servo motors are utilized in assembly robots to position parts for assembly or tools for industrial processes, such as welding or painting. Linear actuators can also be driven by brushless motors. However, new trends in BLDC motor drive design are addressing the cost barrier and allowing these drivers to perform more efficiently than regular DC motors. Another key development in BLDC motor drive technology is to combine the BLDC motor and drive electronics into a single package to simplify the system, eliminate connectivity cabling, and address motor-drive compatibility difficulties.
