Vehicle chip is 32.3 billion U.S. dollars this year, which is 18.5% higher than last year

According to micro-network news, IC Insights estimated that the vehicle chip market will reach a volume of USD 32.3 billion this year, which is expected to grow by 18.5% from last year. It will set a record high for three consecutive years.

IC Insights pointed out that system monitoring, safety, advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and autopilot will be the main drivers driving the growth of the automotive chip market this year; the continued increase in the average selling price of memory products will also add to the growth of the automotive chip market. kinetic energy.

The market for vehicle-based chips continues to look promising. IC Insights estimates that the market for vehicle chips will reach 43.6 billion U.S. dollars in 2021, and the compound annual growth rate for the automotive chip market will reach 12.5% ​​from 2017 to 2021, and the growth momentum will be higher than that of the overall chip market. 6.1% of the market exceeds double the level.

IC Insights expects that the automotive chip market growth will also be higher than the industrial, consumer, computer and communications markets, will be the most powerful chip terminal application market growth.

The Korea Times reported that Samsung Electronics has introduced a 16-gbit LPDDR4X DRAM for automotive applications with a 10nm process. It boasts the advantages of high performance and low power consumption. The heat resistance is also greatly enhanced. The automobile needs to operate in extreme environments, and the 20nm process DRAM can withstand Celsius. -40° to 105°C temperature difference. Samsung claims that the heat resistance of the new product has increased to 125°C.

Samsung’s ambitions for the automotive business include mass production of 256GB of embedded Universal Flash Memory Cards (eUFS) in February. In 2016, Harman, a supplier of automotive parts and components, was acquired at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas in January this year. Show the prototype of the digital driving platform.

SK hynix also rushed to pursue a special group to develop R&D automotive semiconductors. The company's top executives said that the car will become the ultimate mobile device, SK hynix will supply DRAM to Nvidia, AMD card slot. IHSMarkit estimates that the automotive semiconductor market in 2017 It will grow 15% to US$33.7 billion. It is estimated that the automotive semiconductor market will increase by 6.7% annually between 2017 and 2024, and the market value in 2024 will increase to US$58 billion.
