Power Management IC Market Share & Growth | Forecast 2028

The power management IC market is expected to grow from US$ 37,772.0 million in 2021 to US$ 55,042.7 million by 2028; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during 2021–2028.

The usage of battery-powered devices, such as camcorders, cameras, medical instruments, personal digital assistants, power tools, and portable GPS, is rising in various developing countries with increasing urbanization. 14-channel power management integrated circuit find significant uses across wireless audio, voice recognition assistant, AV receivers, and sound bars. A smart power-management integrated circuit is widely used across camera modules, optical modules, and solid-state drives (SSDs). In 2020, 2.3 million units of DSLR cameras were shipped across the world. Rising shipments of DSLR cameras would create the need for PMICs. In 2020, Renesas Electronics Corporation introduced ISL78083, a power management IC for multiple HD camera modules. In addition, the use of highly integrated PMIC is growing considerably in various portable medical devices. Since Nordic nPM1100 power management ICs offer an extremely compact form factor, their requirement is growing for various connected medical devices. As per estimations, more than 190 million healthcare IoT devices will be installed globally by the end of 2025. Shipment of connected hearing devices is anticipated to be over 95 million units by 2023, which would create lucrative scope for programmable power management ICs designed for ultra-low-power wearable applications. Thus, the high demand for hearing devices further drives the power management IC market growth.

Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Power Management IC Market

The impact of COVID-19 differed from country to country across Europe, as selected countries experienced an increase in COVID-19 cases and subsequently attracted strict and more extended lockdown periods or social isolation. Countries such as Germany, Italy, the UK, Russia, France, and Turkey were the most affected by various restrictions and limitations. The European automotive industry was severely affected and experienced a decline of over 20% in overall automotive production due to stringent supply chain disruption caused by imposed lockdowns. The automotive industry is one of the largest market for power management ICs. However, with the increasing demand for electric vehicles in the region, the outlook post-COVID-19-pandemic for the automotive industry seems favorable. With decreased income levels, buyers opted to purchase necessities, such as household goods and groceries, instead of non-essential, big-ticket purchases, such as home theaters and LCD TVs. Other sectors that deploy power management ICs such as electric/electronics, manufacturing & construction, and telecommunication network, also experienced a weak demand. The COVID-19 pandemic has compelled manufacturers to streamline their production processes to tackle unexpected disruptions and resolve uncertain challenges, such as physical distancing. Considering increasing vaccination drives, the demand is expected to rise by the end of 2022, with companies investing in making operations more productive and efficient.
