Semiconductor IP Market Overview, Opportunities, Demands And Growth Analysis Till 2026
Semiconductor equipment
are the electronic components that utilize the electronic properties of
semiconductor materials, such as silicon, germanium, organic semiconductors and
gallium arsenide, which are used to manufacture semiconductor devices or integrated
circuits. Semiconductor equipment helps in achieving a desired output from
semiconductors. It is a huge sized equipment that comprises multiple step
processes that produce a semiconductor constituents. Semiconductor equipment
are used in order to ensure assembling of the semiconductor parts, wafer fab,
and testing of the entire device. Moreover, growing demand for electronics and
gadget services have contributed majorly to growth of the semiconductor
equipment market. According to the Coherent Market Insights’ analysis, the
global semiconductor equipment industry witnessed growth with a market size of
US$ 57.1 billion in 2017, and by 2019, the market is expected to grow by 14.8%,
accounting for US$ 70.9 billion. This significant growth is expected to propel
demand for semiconductor materials in Artificial Intelligence (AI) programs,
such as autonomous vehicles, automotive, consumer electronics, IoT, and
AI-driven electronics. Extensive use of the semiconductors in electronic
devices such as smartphones, flat-screen monitors & LED TVs, civil
aerospace, and military systems is expected to drive growth of the
semiconductor industry.
Global semiconductor
equipment market is expected to witness significant growth during the forecast
period of 2018–2026. The market growth is majorly attributed to increasing
adoption of semiconductor equipment for different applications such as consumer
electronics, automotive, and communications sector. According to the Coherent
Market Insights, by 2026, the semiconductor equipment industry is set to
experience a massive benefits from ongoing development and innovation in
connectivity, communications, advanced software, the automotive industry, and
data centers. For instance, in October 2018, Samsung Electronics launched new
automotive semiconductors, which will bring its market-proven technologies and
diversify its business portfolio into the automotive sector.
Asia Pacific
semiconductor equipment market accounted for largest share in 2018
Asia Pacific is expected
to be the largest and fastest growing region in the semiconductor equipment market
during the forecast period of 2018-2016, owing to increasing adoption of
semiconductor equipment for innovative technologies such as connected vehicles,
industrial automation, and other process automation. According to Coherent
Marker Insights’ analysis, in 2018, the countries such as China, Taiwan, Korea,
India, Japan, and India hold more than 90% market share in the semiconductor
equipment market.
Asia Pacific region also
has presence of key industry participants such as Tokyo Electron Limited, IHI
Corporation, and Hitachi Kokusai Electric Inc., which will help Asia Pacific
region retain its dominance over the forecast period. Furthermore, companies
are increasingly investing on the construction of new foundries. For instance,
in 2017, companies such as Intel, Micron, Toshiba, and Global Foundries have
increased their fab or foundries investments. Furthermore, in June 2018, South
Korea witnessed a surge in semiconductor foundries investments from Samsung, as
it increased investment from US$ 8 Bn to US$18 Bn in 2017-2018. This is
expected to ensure steady growth for Asia Pacific region, thereby augmenting
the overall growth of the semiconductor equipment market.

The semiconductor market
is gaining significant traction among industrial sectors such as automotive,
aircraft, telecommunication, and wireless devices. This growth in semiconductor
industry is attributed to increase in international investment in response to a
rapid rise in consumer demand from various geographical locations. For
instance, in December 2015, United Microelectronics Corporation (UMC)
collaborated with the Xiamen government and FuJian Electronics and Information
Group on a US$ 6.2 billion investment in a semiconductor fabrication plants.
Increased industrial productions and reviving consumer confidence further led to
an increase in demand for semiconductor-related products and equipment across
the world.
China is expected to
hold dominant position in the semiconductor equipment market over the forecast
period. The Chinese government has also established the China Integrated
Circuit (IC) Industry Investment Fund to finance semiconductor equipment
research and development as well as invested in chip manufacturing, with an aim
to improve the competitiveness and bolster its technical supply chain over the
longer term. The rapid growth of the Chinese semiconductor industry is based on
the Chinese government’s efforts. According to Coherent Market Insights,
Chinese government is planning to invest more than 200 trillion in
semiconductor equipment industry until 2025, to boost the domestic production
ratio from 13% to 70%.
