2017 automotive IC market analysis, promising!

It is understood that the expected growth of 22% in the automotive IC market is driven by system growth, and the prices of memory and logic devices are rising.

Electronic systems to improve vehicle performance: The purpose is to increase the comfort and convenience of the vehicle. The means to protect the driver's safety are increasing every year. The means of warning, detection, and correction of errors are also increasing. Consumers' demand for these new systems, as well as the government's requirements for these, have prompted the price of related IC components to rise. It is expected that this year, this impact will bring about 22% market growth for the automotive IC market, reaching a record of US$ 28 billion.

In the past few years, the global automotive IC market has experienced several extraordinary changes. In 2014, the automotive IC market grew by 11.5%, and this figure has decreased by 2.5% in 2015. In 2016, the strong rebounded and the entire market increased by 10.8%. It is worth noting that the main reason for the decline in the market in 2015 is that the key decline in ASP automotive ICs used in automotive analog integrated circuits, DRAM, Flash, general purpose and dedicated logic integrated circuits offsets the steady growth of the automotive IC market.

However, in the second half of 2016, due to the demand for new automotive systems, the steady increase in ASP has allowed the growth of the automotive IC market to return to double digits. It is expected that in 2017, the increase in DRAM and memory prices will bring a new round of explosive growth to the automotive IC market, and the figure is expected to reach 22.4%.

ICInsights recently revised its outlook for the 2017 IC market. Since 2017, DRAM prices have increased by an average of 50%, NANDFlashASP has increased by 28%, and the price of automotive-specific logic devices has increased by 34%. The increase in the prices of these related devices and the demand for new automotive systems will bring strong growth momentum to the automotive IC market this year.

Overall, in 2016, microcontrollers, analog, standard logic devices, and memory accounted for about 8% of the market for automotive applications. This number is expected to increase to 10% by 2020. In the future, cars will become the third largest IC market after communications and computers. ICInsights predicts that by 2020, the ADAS system used in automobiles will become the most important integrated circuit system in automobiles. This system can help drivers and drivers stay safe while driving. Whether it is active safety or passive safety, it is considered to be an important development basis for the next decade.
