Global Semiconductor IP Market 2016-2020: Market to Grow at CAGR of 14.87% - Key Challenges, Drivers & Trends - Research and Markets

DUBLIN, October 26, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --

Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Global Semiconductor IP Market 2016-2020" report to their offering.

The global semiconductor IP market to grow at a CAGR of 14.87% during the period 2016-2020.

The report covers the present scenario and the growth prospects of the global semiconductor IP market for 2016-2020. To calculate the market size, the report considers the sale of semiconductor IP licenses to fabless companies and integrated device manufacturers (IDMs) for designing and manufacturing semiconductor devices. The report also includes a discussion of the key vendors operating in this market.

Automobiles are undergoing a considerable digital makeover as increasing number of manufacturers are considering automation as a serious trend in the coming years. Leading automobile manufacturers such as Toyota, Audi, and Mercedes have invested considerably in the R&D of automobile automation. Semiconductor content plays a key role in automobile automation, especially in networked communication and driving automation. Next-generation automobiles are expected to include speech recognition, video and image compatibilities, and IC-integrated LED front lighting to provide optimal driving experience.

According to the report, one of the key drivers for market growth will be increase in production of mobile devices. The last decade has seen stupendous growth in demand for consumer electronic devices such as smartphones, tablets, TVs, digital cameras, and home appliance. The growth of the semiconductor industry and consumer electronics are interrelated, i.e., growth in the consumer electronics industry will have an impact on the demand in the semiconductor industry. Out of these consumer electronic devices, smartphones and tablets sales have grown in higher numbers in comparison to the others.

Further, the report states that it has often been found that the design engineers are facing big challenges at the time of integrating their acquired semiconductor IP blocks from third-party IP vendors on SOCs. The risk of such IP integration increases with the number of IP blocks to be utilized along with the IP design complexity. The cost of IP integration doubles the cost of acquiring those IP designs. The increase in the number of IP blocks will also increase the production time length. Furthermore, during the integration of semiconductor IP, the acquired IP blocks must be compatible with other cores of IP. There are other factors that need to be compatible such as auxiliary authentication settings, design for testing, manufacturing, and circuit board level of integration.
