Digital (Silicon) IP Market Size

The Global Digital (Silicon) IP Market is projected to grow from USD 5.2 billion in 2021 to USD 7.1 billion by 2026 at a CAGR value of 5.2% from 2021 to 2026. The semiconductor intellectual property market has been growing tremendously in recent years owing to the growing application of semiconductor electronics in various end-use industries. The growing demand for consumer electronics has been instrumental in the increasing demand for system-on-chip designs to meet the demand of consumers. Growing expenditure on smartphone and smartphone accessories has been one of the key drivers of the digital intellectual property market.

Technological innovations and engineering feats in the field of communication technology have seen an increase in the demand for connected devices in various industries. Telecommunication networks like 4G and the upcoming 5G networks have forced the hands of electronic product manufacturers to upgrade existing models to meet the changing market.

With each iteration of new technology, the demand for innovative integrated chip design layouts has been a boon to semiconductor intellectual property vendors across the globe. The growing adoption of IoT and cloud computing solutions is expected to further enhance the demand for SIPs from electronic manufacturers for industrial applications. The need for interconnected consumer electronics through Bluetooth, Wi-FI, and NFC technologies will play a crucial role in the growing demand from the consumer electronics industry.

The healthcare devices industry has seen an increase in demand for wearables and devices with smartphone and internet connectivity. The growing demand for increased connectivity in healthcare devices will result in medical device manufacturers turning to silicon intellectual property vendors for their integrated chip needs.

The growing adoption of various integrated electronic components and the high demand for complex integrated chip designs in the aerospace and defense industry is also expected to boost the demand for the market during the forecast period.

The global coronavirus pandemic was initially detrimental to the market owing to production shutdowns, fluctuations in the price, and availability of raw materials. These issues further caused various delays in product launches and the development of novel Digital (Silicon) IPs. The pandemic caused seismic shifts in the telecommunications industry as people turned to online communications methods for work and pleasure. The healthcare services industry saw an increase in demand for medical devices and wearables while other industries began rapidly adopting IoT and cloud facilities to improve remote accessibility and monitoring purposes. These changes are expected to continue during the forecast period translating to further growth in the digital (silicon) IP market.

The market is heavily restrained by counterfeit products and theft of intellectual property. Another factor is the lack of standardization in the industry owing to the various types of products and changing customer needs.
