North America System on Module (SoM) Market Trends and Analysis by 2028

The North America system on module (SoM) market is expected to grow from US$ 495.16 million in 2021 to US$ 868.70 million by 2028; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 8.4% from 2021 to 2028.

A system on module (SoM) is a small-form-factor computing solution that consists of a hardware and software for developing embedded products. It is a single physical module that incorporates many computing components such as a central processing unit (CPU), random access memory (RAM), flash memory, power management unit, an Ethernet bus, and Wi-Fi and Bluetooth radios. This availability of hardware components as a single unit reduces the complexity of final product designs. The integration of system on module with ready-to-use operating systems, and integrated support for development environments, frameworks, and other third-party software are providing lucrative growth opportunities for industry participants. Many players in the system on module market are providing off-the-shelf carrier boards that can be used for development in a wide range of applications. Further, system on module benefit through reduced complexity while maintaining high flexibility in the form factor, further supporting the market growth.

In North America, social distancing and work from home scenarios increased the sales of consumer electronic devices, such as laptops, home-networking gear, webcams, and monitors. Sales of home entertainment systems and other appliances also increased all of which come with customized chips. Therefore, to meet the demands, the system on module companies in North America are significantly improving their production technology. The US computer processors chipmaker, Intel Corp. reported a significant decline in sales due to production delays. The US government has ordered economic and national security experts to look for gaps in the semiconductor supply chain and reduce the reliance on other countries to manufacture semiconductors. Significant initiatives are anticipated to boost the growth of the North American system on module market during the forecast period.

With the new advancements and technologies, vendors can attract new customers and expand their footprints in emerging markets. This factor is likely to drive the North America system on module (SoM) market. Lesser complexity of system on modules based on the Acorn RISC Machine (ARM) architecture, compared to those based on x86 processors, is accelerating the adoption of acorn risc machine -based processors. The demand for acorn risc machine processors in system on module is increasing as they come with reduced instruction sets and support single cycle computing. Leading manufacturers of acorn risc machine -based system on module—such as Congatec AG, Digi International, Kontron, and ARM Holdings Corporation—are engaged in designing and developing acorn risc machine architecture, thereby contributing to the growth of the market. The growing adoption of acorn risc machine architecture-based system on modules by small and medium scale enterprises; rising demand for advanced aerial imaging technology by the various end user verticals; and increasing application of system on modules in a wide range of applications, including industrial automation, medical, entertainment, transportation, test and measurement, and communications, is anticipated to provide lucrative opportunities for the growth of the system on module market players during the forecast period.
