DUBLIN, June 24, 2015 /PRNewswire/ --
Research and
Markets(http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/3z67fz/global)
has announced the addition of the "Global Microcontroller Market
2015-2019" report to their offering.
The analysts forecast the global microcontroller market to grow
at a CAGR of 7.43% in terms of revenue during the period
2014-2019.
Microcontrollers are microcomputers operate on ICs that comprise
processors, memory units, and programmable input/output
peripherals. These are low-power, low-cost embedded chips with data
memory and programming built onto them. Microcontrollers are used
for different applications; for instance, in remote controls, in
consumer electronic devices, such as washing machines and microwave
ovens, and in automobiles for engine control. In addition, they are
widely used in industrial automation systems, which is gaining
traction these days.
The increasing adoption of touchscreen devices (referred to as
"smart devices") such as smartphones, laptops, monitors, public
displays, music players, and gaming consoles is expected to
increase the shipment of microcontrollers. Touchscreen sensors in
the automotive and industrial segments will also drive the market
in the near future. Several industries are undergoing automation,
which requires microcontrollers to be used in sensors. The demand
for these devices is high, particularly in the developing countries
in APAC.
According to the report, the automotive and industrial segments are
the two crucial segments contributing to the growth of the overall
market. MCUs are increasingly used in automobiles for applications
such as lane detection, parking systems, accident detectors, and
sensors. The demand for automobiles embedded with such
microcontrollers is increasing significantly. In addition, several
industries in many regions are becoming more automated. Automation
involves the deployment of MCUs in sensors to perform specific
tasks, which will result in market growth.
Further, the report states that the lengthy and intensive
development process tends to delay the time-to-market of end
products.
The following are the application segments considered to
calculate the market size in this report:
- Automotive segment
- Consumer electronics segment (cellphones and smartphones,
tablets, and other consumer electronics)
- Industrial segment
The report provides information about the following three types
of microcontrollers:
- 32-bit microcontrollers
- 16-bit microcontrollers
- 8-bit microcontrollers
