    Market Dynamics:

    Driver:

    Massive demand from automotive industry owing to discrete semiconductor\'s applications in ADAS and other interior systems:-

    Discrete semiconductors have several essential applications in automotive industry generally in automotive power distribution systems, automotive infotainment systems, LED front lighting and sensor fusion systems. Moreover, these semiconductors are very crucial for automotive security as they are integrated in telematics control unit, body control modules and extensively in ADAS (Advanced driver assistant systems). With rising demand for safer automobiles surging number of manufactures are including such systems into manufactured vehicles, thus ultimately propelling the demand for discrete semiconductors.

    Growing demand for consumer electronics devices such as smartphones, laptops, televisions, smartwatches and gaming consoles:-

    According to Statista, consumer electronic industry is one of the largest industries with global market size of staggering USD 1,103 billion in the year 2023. The growth of consumer electronic industry is directly associated with the demand of discrete semiconductors having vital applications in almost all modern electronic devices for functions such as switching, amplification, rectification, and voltage regulation.

    Restraint:

    • Extensive capital requirements for research and development :-

    Semiconductor industry as a whole is fast evolving industry. The businesses operating in manufacturing of discrete semiconductors are investing large sums of capital into research and development. Moreover, businesses involved into development of newer semiconductor design have to spend substantial amounts on patent infringement detection as it is extremely difficult. Large scale replication of patented technologies and designs is also common in this sector. Therefore, aforementioned restraints are hindering the growth prospects of this industry.

    Opportunities:

    The EV and renewable energy ecosystem are the most potent opportunity for discrete semiconductor market. Governments and businesses across the globe are heavily investing into development of renewable energy resources. For instance, according to a report by S&P global EU (European Union) announced Capex of USD 107.3 billion annually for development of renewable energy infrastructure. The discrete semiconductor industry is estimated to be the direct beneficiary by this development. For instance, diodes are extensively used in order to protect solar panels from reverse current flow, while power transistors are widely used in inverters in order to convert the DC (direct current) generated by the solar panels into AC (alternating current) which is primary current type of domestic and industrial applications. Also rising demand for EVs and Hybrid vehicles are estimated to fuel the demand for discrete semiconductors owing to rising number of semiconductors application in electric vehicles.

    Discrete semiconductor Market Segmentation:



    By Types

    Discrete semiconductors are divided mainly into diodes, transistors, and thyristor module types. The Transistors (MOSFET, IGBT, and Bipolar) type held majority market share in terms of revenue. The reason of MOSFET wide use is its capability to provide highly efficient power supply and highly competitive switching performance.

    On the other hand, the diode type is estimated to showcase considerable growth over the forecasted period owing to its crucial applications in renewable energy ecosystem. Diodes play a crucial role in solar panel installations since the devices allow for a unidirectional flow of current and block any backflow. Additionally, diodes also serve as bypass devices, ensuring the stability of the solar power system at times of panel failure.

    By Application

    The consumer electronics segment had the largest market share for discrete semiconductors. Discrete semiconductors such as diodes and transistors are extensively used for clipping, clamping, and amplification of audio and video signals. Moreover, thyristor and IGBTs are used for controlling high-power audio amplifiers and MOSFETs are used for switching and power management in computer power supplies. Such applications of discrete semiconductors into electronic devices makes consumer electronic industry the most dominant consumer for discrete semiconductors.

    On the other hand, automotive industry is expected to showcase substantial growth in the forecasted period. Especially the EV and hybrid segment is expected to lead the demand as the number of electronic vehicles is on the rise globally. For instance, according to a report by Statista global EV market attained a growth rate of 17% in the year 2022 and this trend is estimated to continue. Generally EV\'s perquisite larger number of discrete semiconductors compared to non EV vehicles.

    By Region

    The regional segment comprises Europe, Asia Pacific, North America, the Middle East and Africa, and Latin America. Asia-Pacific had some of the biggest producers of discrete semiconductors, specifically, China and South Korea nations were the largest producers of such semiconductors. Additionally, this region boost some of the largest consumer electronics manufacturing facilities which are the leading consumers of discrete semiconductors.



    The North America is estimated to showcase fastest market growth owing to the rising demand for semiconductors from automotive and renewable energy sector.
