Growing Adoption Across Various Industries Drives Temperature Sensor Market

Temperature sensors are used for various purposes across sectors such as semiconductor manufacturing, aerospace, healthcare & pharma, food & beverage, energy & utilities, and data centers for accurately and efficiently monitoring the temperatures of a particular object or environment. These sensors are used for calculating the temperature of a certain object or environment. Below mentioned are the uses and benefits provided by temperature sensors in numerous industries.

  • Semiconductor Manufacturing – Temperature sensors are usually incorporated into integrated circuits (ICs), including microprocessors and microcontrollers. These ICs are widely used to manufacture laptops, tablets, desktop computers, mobile telephones, and other electronic devices. Growing demand for high-performance microprocessors and microcontrollers among electronics manufacturers is driving the market. For instance, in December 2023, Microchip Technology Inc. launched the AVR EB Family of Microcontrollers (AVR EB MCUs), used to manufacture laptops, desktop computers, and other electronic devices. AVR EB MCUs are used to reduce noise, vibration, and system harness by adjusting timing, speed, and waveform shape in the semiconductor manufacturing process.
  • Aerospace – Temperature sensors are essential for the aerospace industry for measuring the degree of hydraulic oils, fuel, and coolants. Resistance temperature detectors (RTD) and thermocouples are the two most common temperature sensors that can withstand extreme high-heat environments and are used to measure overeating of engines accurately. Companies such as Fluid Components LLC, Temp-Pro Inc., and AMETEK Inc. are engaged in developing high-performance temperature sensors for the aerospace industry.
  • Healthcare & Pharma – Healthcare & pharma industries are increasingly using temperature sensors integrated within the machines and devices. Temperature sensors, such as thermistors, thermocouples, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) equipment, resistance temperature detectors (RTDs), and portable ultrasound scanners, are used to perform a range of medical procedures and monitor patients. For instance, temperature sensors support thermometers in the quick and accurate measurement of a patient's health. They provide real-time data to medical staff to offer higher standards of service to patients. For instance, in September 2023, TriMedika Ltd launched TRITEMP non-contact thermometer for monitoring patient's foreheads. TRITEMP is integrated with an infrared sensor that detects infrared radiation emitted by a patient's forehead and converts it into an accurate reading for healthcare providers. Moreover, TRITEMP is a highly portable and versatile device that can be used in numerous healthcare settings, including hospitals, clinics, and home care.

Other industries such as food & beverages, energy & utilities, data centers, oil & gas, mining, and automotive are also increasingly adopting temperature sensors for measuring the temperature of engines and machines. The growing use of temperature sensors helps industries measure temperature by tracking activities, which, in turn is favoring the temperature sensor market growth.
