CMOS Power Amplifiers Market Report

The rapid advancement and adoption of 4G wireless communication is anticipated to drive the market for CMOS power amplifiers. This growth can be attributed to the increasing need for more bandwidth and faster data speeds. Recent developments in CMOS technology have brought about a number of advantageous characteristics, including effective switched-mode amplifiers, high yield, low power consumption, and high SoC integration. The cost efficacy of CMOS in comparison to other widely used radio frequency (RF) front-end circuit technologies like gallium arsenide (GaAs), biCMOS, and silicon bipolar is one of the main reasons for its rapid growth.

Due to its affordability and adaptability, CMOS technology has become extremely common among power amplifier (PA) manufacturers. The growth of the global CMOS power amplifier market is therefore expected to be aided by these developments over the forecast period. In addition to this, the introduction of modern wireless communication standards has paved the way for rigorous standards for higher data rates, which function on high-order modulation schemes and broad bandwidth. Rapid advancement and acceptance of CMOS technology can be used to overcome these difficulties. As a result, the global CMOS power amplifier market is anticipated to grow during the forecast period.

The introduction of 5G wireless communication technology is anticipated to experience significant growth over the forecast period. Reduced latency, improved user experience, and increased data rates can be achieved with the adoption of 5G wireless technology. Due to its cheap costs and high yields, CMOS technology is anticipated to be used more frequently in 5G RF front-end modules. Numerous market players are concentrating on developing advanced CMOS amplifiers to meet the high-bandwidth requirements of 5G technology. Moreover, the introduction of the Internet of Things (IoT) has led to numerous technological developments such as the miniaturization of devices and an increase in connectivity. Sending and downloading data and videos has become more convenient because of IoT. The need for greater coverage while using fewer batteries is leading to the rise in the use of CMOS technology. Additionally, major market players are emphasizing the development of new CMOS power amplifiers that are compatible with LTE and advanced LTE technologies.

• Integration of RF front-end modules for compact designs.
• The emergence of AI-enabled power amplifiers for smart applications.
• The growing popularity of Wi-Fi 6E amplifiers for high-speed connectivity.
• Rise in demand for IoT devices driving market expansion.
• Focus on low power consumption and high linearity.

Businesses are adopting a range of various marketing techniques to attract potential consumers and expand their customer base, including new product launches, regional expansion, mergers and acquisitions, partnerships, and collaboration. For instance, STMicroelectronics, a global leader in semiconductors, acquired SOMOS Semiconductor, a French semiconductor company in October 2020. STMicroelectronics had aimed to strengthen its technical staff, intellectual property, and Front-End Modules roadmaps for the IoT and 5G markets with this acquisition. Technology and assets from SOMO are anticipated to favor STMicroelectronics in developing its existing roadmap of RF Front-End Modules for the 5G infrastructure industry. Moreover, in February 2020, Toshiba Electronics Europe GmbH announced its new CMOS Silicon on Insulator process technology developed for RF switch ICs. This technology was anticipated to improve the characteristics of Low Noise Amplifiers. When compared to TaRF10, the recent generation SOI-CMOS process provides additional improvements to the RF characteristics. The noise figure (NF), which measures the input and output signal-to-noise ratios, is a crucial parameter for these devices.

Despite of low-cost provision and highly integrated wireless transmission of CMOS power amplifiers, there are many issues that are preventing the growth of this market. Non-linearity, low breakdown voltage, a shortage of high-voltage capacitors, and inaccurate RF models are some of the most significant problems with CMOS power amplifiers. Moreover, the naturally poor linearity of CMOS amplifiers can lead to distortion which makes them unsuitable for modern high peak-to-average ratio modulation techniques. In contrast to other technologies, CMOS amplifiers require more time for manufacturing and have high development costs. As a result, these factors are anticipated to limit market development during the forecast period. Furthermore, although CMOS power amplifiers have advantages in the telecommunications sector, current leakage is still a major drawback as it can cause serious issues like excessive power use, failure, and/or short circuits. Such significant disadvantages are preventing the adoption of CMOS power amplifiers, thus hampering the market expansion.

The Asia Pacific region is anticipated to hold a significant share of the CMOS Power Amplifiers Market during the forecast period. This growth can be attributed to the rising smartphone penetration in the region. Moreover, the Asia Pacific region has a major market for consumer electronics, automobile, and industrial verticals. The growing adoption of the 5G network is also anticipated to drive market expansion in the Asia Pacific region. The rising telecom industry of Europe is stimulating the market growth for the CMOS power amplifiers market. The telecom industry in Europe is building infrastructures necessary for digital transformation while accelerating the adoption of new technologies such as 5G, edge computing, cloud computing, artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things, and cybersecurity.

However, the European telecoms industry has been weakened over time as a result of ongoing market fragmentation and severe regulation restrictions. European telecom businesses are expanding into areas that go beyond basic connectivity, including business models based on data, cloud, and security, in order to bridge the digital gaps. Furthermore, the presence of major market participants like ACCO Semiconductor, and Broadcom among others is anticipated to drive the market for CMOS power amplifiers in North America over the forecast period.
