It will grow from $5.98 billion in 2024 to $6.81 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13.7%. The growth during the historical period can be attributed to the increasing demand for consumer electronics, the rise of industrial automation, the growth of electric vehicles, the expansion of robotics applications, and the adoption of energy-efficient systems.

The motor driver integrated circuit (IC) market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $11.22 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13.3%. The growth in the forecast period is expected to be driven by the rising adoption of electric and hybrid vehicles, increasing demand for automation across industries, greater use of home appliances, heightened focus on energy conservation, and the growing popularity of drones. Key trends anticipated in the forecast period include advancements in gallium nitride (GaN) technology, the development of silicon carbide (SiC)-based motor drivers, innovations in compact circuit designs, ongoing research and development in motor control technologies, and the integration of artificial intelligence.

The growing adoption of electric vehicles is anticipated to drive the expansion of the motor driver IC market in the future. Electric vehicles (EVs), which are powered fully or partially by electricity stored in rechargeable batteries instead of relying on internal combustion engines fueled by gasoline or diesel, are becoming more popular due to increasing environmental concerns. Both consumers and governments are eager to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and lessen reliance on fossil fuels as part of efforts to combat climate change. Motor driver integrated circuits (ICs) are crucial in electric vehicles for managing motor functions efficiently, ensuring precise control over speed, torque, and direction to enhance performance and energy efficiency. For example, according to the International Energy Agency (IEA), electric car sales surged by about 25% in the first quarter of 2024 compared to the same period in 2023, a trend similar to the year-on-year growth seen in the first quarter of 2022. Consequently, the rising adoption of electric vehicles is significantly contributing to the growth of the motor driver IC market.

Leading companies in the motor driver IC market are concentrating on creating innovative solutions, such as power management ICs, to improve energy efficiency and enable compact, high-performance designs. Power management ICs (PMICs) are integrated circuits that oversee power distribution, voltage regulation, and sequencing, allowing motor driver ICs to operate efficiently and safely by ensuring a stable and optimized power supply. For example, in February 2024, Alpha and Omega Semiconductor Limited, a U.S.-based manufacturer, introduced the AOZ32063MQV, a compact 3-phase driver IC that incorporates advanced power management features such as high-side 100% duty cycle operation, an integrated bootstrap diode, and various protection functions to boost energy efficiency and prolong battery life in cordless power tools and e-mobility applications. The device accommodates a wide input voltage range of 5V to 60V, provides adjustable dead-time control, and features sleep mode functionality to reduce standby power consumption. These features make the AOZ32063MQV ideal for space-constrained, high-efficiency BLDC motor applications, allowing manufacturers to design smaller, more reliable motor control systems while lowering overall BOM costs and enhancing system performance.
