The COVID-19 had an adverse impact on the global mixed-signal IC market. The immense downturn in several electronic industries has been a significant reason for the decline in the demand for mixed-signal ICs at a global level. The outbreak of the COVID-19 crisis resulted in uncertainty in the stock market, disruption of the supply chain, slowdown of business, and an increase in panic among customer segments. The overall impact of the pandemic impacted the production process of several industries, including semiconductor & electronics. Trade barriers further constrain the demand and supply outlook. Governments of different countries have already declared total lockdown and have temporarily shut down industries, which adversely affected the overall production process. COVID-19 has a huge impact on end-use and the economy. Electronics manufacturing hubs have been temporarily shut down to restrict COVID-19 spread among individuals. This has majorly affected the supply chain of the mixed-signal IC market by creating shortages of components and finished goods. Lack of business continuity has negatively impacted shareholder returns and revenue, which are expected to create financial disruptions in the mixed-signal IC industry. The impact of COVID-19 on the manufacturing industry has significantly affected the global economy. Electronic components, such as PCBs, LED chips & wafers, ICs, and other semiconductor devices, are majorly imported from China. The prices of semiconductor components have increased by 2-3%, owing to a shortage of supplies, due to the shutdown of manufacturing units. However, with the start of 2021, the market is expected to resume its supply chain operation.
The segmentation of the global Mixed-signal IC market has been done into component, industry vertical, and geography. By component, the classification of the market has been done into Hardware, Transistors, Resistors, Capacitors, Others, Software. By industry vertical, the classification of the market has been done into Healthcare, Consumer Electronics, Communication And Technology, Automotive, Others. Furthermore, on the basis of geography, the global market has been distributed as North America, South America, Europe, Middle East and Africa, and the Asia Pacific.
The emergence of the 5G technology at a global level will drive the market during the forecast period.
The growth of the mixed-signal IC market is fuelled by its increasing demand coming from the 5G industrial sector wherein this IC plays a key role in the infrastructure. 5G technology has a huge demand for high-frequency switching circuits. These switching circuits are more commonly used in mixed-signal ICs. The adoption of 5G technology and other wireless technologies has increased the popularity of mixed-signal ICs. At higher frequencies, losses and distortion increase. This creates the need for special techniques which is available in mixed-signal ICs. Furthermore, the mixed-signal IC market finds major applications in the consumer electronics industry, where they are deployed in mobile phones, led drivers, tablets, notebooks, and other electronic devices. The 5G sector is growing at an exponential rate in recent years. 5G networks are the next generation of mobile internet connectivity, offering faster speeds and more reliable connections on smartphones and other devices than ever before. Combining cutting-edge network technology and the latest high-specification devices, 5G should offer connections that are multitudes faster than previous mobile technology, with average download speeds of around 1Gbps expected to be the norm across many (if not most) next-gen network. The networks are expected to supercharge Internet of Things technology, providing the infrastructure needed to carry huge amounts of data that will enable a smarter and more connected world. Quite literally, info from tons of sensors could tell operators what's happening in your home, town, or even city in real-time.
5G networks have launched around the world with providers offering connectivity tech across the US, UK, and Australia, as well as a variety of other countries around the world. While rollout schedules have slowed due to the coronavirus outbreak, networks are still expanding, and carriers are continuing with their plans to expand current setups and launch nodes in new areas and cities.
