Analog Integrated Circuit (IC) Market Analysis

The Global Analog Integrated Circuit Market size is estimated at USD 91.26 billion in 2024, and is expected to reach USD 129.69 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 7.28% during the forecast period (2024-2029).

  • An analog integrated circuit (IC) is a network of interconnected components manufactured on a single wafer of semiconducting material. These components operate across a continuous range of input signals, contrasting with their digital counterparts, which utilize only two input and output voltage levels. These circuits process, receive, and generate multiple energy output levels during device operation. Electronic devices employing components such as oscillators, DC amplifiers, multi-vibrators, and audio amplifiers utilize analog circuits, which maintain equal output and input levels.
  • The introduction and adoption of emerging technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT) are expected to propel the market growth owing to the evident benefits of analog ICs across a considerable range of real-time connected devices and applications. Owing to the increasing availability of high-speed connectivity, rising cloud adoption, and increasing use of data processing and analytics, the adoption of the Internet of Things (IoT) is growing steadily. For instance, as per Ericsson, there were 1.9 billion cellular IoT connections in the world in 2022, which is expected to grow to 5.5 billion in 2027, registering a CAGR of 19% over the period. 
  • Furthermore, the adoption of analog ICs has surged in recent years due to the proliferation of smartphones, consumer electronics, computers, and storage devices, as well as the increased sales of electric vehicles. Various ICs used in smartphones include charge ICs, display PMICs, SoC PMICs, and Camera PMICs. Key players such as Apple, Qualcomm, Intel, and Samsung S.LSI dominate this market. Consequently, with the growing production and sales of smartphones featuring advanced technologies and the increasing integration of 5G and 6G, the analog IC market is anticipated to gain substantial traction globally.
  • However, global smartphone demand is projected to decline in 2023 compared to 2022 due to ongoing inflation, reduced consumer spending, and a weaker consumer outlook. This decline is expected to temporarily hamper the Analog IC market. Nevertheless, the market is predicted to recover slightly in FY 2024 owing to heightened demand for 5G smartphones and the expanding 5G network connectivity worldwide, particularly driven by the increased proliferation of 5G and foldable smartphones. For instance, as per GSMA, by 2025, 5G networks will likely cover one-third of the world's population. 
  • There is a significant dependency on the availability of skilled analog chip design engineers in the industry. However, there is a need for such skills within the semiconductor industry. According to Cindi Harper, Human Resources, Talent Planning, and Acquisition at Intel, the demand for talent in the industry surpasses the supply. Similarly, Ruchir Dixit, country manager at Siemens EDA, has stated that the US expects a shortage of 250,000 semiconductor engineers over the next five years. China and Taiwan anticipate shortages of 300,000 and 50,000 engineers, respectively. Such trends hinder the market's growth.
  • Moreover, the conflict between Russia and Ukraine is expected to significantly impact several industries like the electronics industry. The conflict has already exacerbated the semiconductor supply chain issues and the chip shortage that have impacted the industry for some time. The disruption caused volatile pricing for critical raw materials like nickel, palladium, copper, silicon, Germanium, Indium Gallium Arsenide Phosphide, titanium, aluminum, and iron ore, resulting in material shortages. Further, according to SEMI, Russia is a global supplier of 45-50% of palladium. The material is used to form bonding wires, lead frames, electrodes, plating, and coating for semiconductor packaging. Therefore, with every country shutting doors for trading with Russia, the semiconductor manufacturers’ focus is increasing on alternative raw material supplies, further delaying the production of semiconductors required in the market.

  • The advent of 5G technology is fostering a surge in 5G smartphone penetration. As per the November 2022 Ericsson Mobility Report, it's anticipated that 5G mobile subscriptions will reach 5 billion by the end of 2028. Notably, 5G networks are expected to cover 85% of the population and handle around 70% of mobile traffic.
  • The introduction of chipsets tailored for 5G smartphones by numerous industry players is contributing significantly to the market's growth. For example, Google unveiled the Pixel 6a, Pixel 7, and Pixel 7 Pro in 2022 to support India's 5G network. The Pixel 6a supports 19 5G bands, while Pixel 7 and 7 Pro support 22.
  • Reports from the Consumer Technology Association (CTA) and the US Census Bureau project an increase in smartphone sales value in the United States from USD 73 billion in 2021 to USD 74.7 billion in 2022. Additionally, GSMA estimates a rise in smartphone subscribers in North America to 328 million by 2025, along with increased penetration rates for mobile subscribers (86%) and Internet users (80%).
  • The Ericsson Mobility Report suggests that the Middle East & Africa (MEA) region may have 60 million 5G service subscribers by 2024, accounting for approximately 3% of all mobile subscriptions. GSMA estimates around 50 million 5G connections across MENA, with potentially 20 million connections in the Arab States alone by 2025. These statistics underscore the swift pace of mobile adoption driving the studied market
