Outlook Remains Bright for Automotive Electronics

Despite some high-profile setbacks with autonomous vehicles, IC Insights projects that automotive electronics systems growth will remain robust and automotive remains a hotbed for semiconductor growth. Sales of automotive electronics systems are forecast to increase 7.0 percent in 2018 and 6.3 percent in 2019, the highest growth rate in both years among the six major end-use applications for semiconductors.

In its report, IC Insights does not address the current shortage in electronic components as a possible drag on growth. However, electronic component manufacturers and distributors cite the increase of electronics in vehicles as a contributor to the shortage. Although the scarcity is most severe in interconnect, passives and electromechanical components, the ability to secure these relatively inexpensive parts could limit semiconductor sales.

IC Insights data shows that sales of automotive-related electronic systems are forecast to increase to $152 billion in 2018 from $142 billion in 2017, and are forecast to rise to $162 billion in 2019. Furthermore, automotive electronics are expected to enjoy a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.4 percent from 2017 through 2021, again topping all other major system categories, based on recent findings by IC Insights.

Overall, the automotive segment is expected to account for 9.4 percent of the $1.62 trillion total worldwide electronic systems market in 2018, the research firm said, a slight increase from 9.1 percent in 2017. Automotive has increased only incrementally over the years, and is forecast to show only marginal gains as a percent of the total electronic systems market through 2021, when it is forecast to account for 9.9 percent of global electronic systems sales. Though accounting for a rather small percentage of total electronic system marketshare in 2018, (larger only than the government/military category), automotive is expected to be the fastest-growing segment through 2021.

semiconductors, automotive electronics

Technology features that are focused on self-driving (autonomous) vehicles, ADAS, vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communications, on-board safety, convenience, and environmental features, as well as ongoing interest in electric vehicles, continues to lift the market for automotive electronics systems, despite some highly publicized accidents involving self-driving vehicles this year that were at least partly blamed on technology miscues, according to IC Insights.

New advancements are more widely available onboard mid range and entry-level cars and as aftermarket products, which has further raised automotive system growth in recent years, according to IC Insights. In the semiconductor world, this is particularly good news for makers of analog ICs, MCUs, and sensors since a great number of all of these devices are required in most of these automotive systems.

It is worth noting that the Automotive—Special Purpose Logic category is forecast to increase 29 percent this year—second only to the DRAM market, and the Automotive—Application-Specific Analog market is forecast to jump 14 percent this year—as backup cameras, blind-spot (lane departure) detectors, and other “intelligent” systems are mandated or otherwise being added to more vehicles. Meanwhile, memory (specifically, DRAM and flash memory) is increasingly playing a more critical role in the development of new automotive system solutions used in vehicles.
