Since the 2.5D & 3D Semiconductor Packaging has numerous applications in the medical industry, the proliferation of medical equipment manufacturing is expected to drive market growth.
However, the high Initial Investment and Increasing Complexity of Semiconductor IC Designs are expected to restrain the evolution of the market.

Key Market Trends

The Consumer Electronics Segment is Expected to Hold a Major Market Share

Consumer electronics is one of the primary end-user industries for semiconductor vendors. Growth in the smartphone industry, increasing adoption of smart devices and wearables, and increasing penetration of consumer IoT devices in applications like smart homes are significant factors driving the growth of the studied segment. For instance, according to Ericsson, worldwide smartphone subscriptions were 5924 million in 2020 and 6259 million in 2021. It is projected to reach 6567 million in 2022 and 7690 million in 2027.
The consumer electronics industry demands higher power dissipation, faster speeds, higher pin counts, smaller footprints, and lower profiles. The miniaturization and integration of semiconductors have given rise to smaller, lighter, and more portable devices. Each new iteration of consumer electronics products is more innovative, lightweight, and energy-efficient than its predecessors. This creates enormous customer expectations for the next iteration, which is a significant selling point for the producers of consumer electronics. The 2.5D & 3D Semiconductor Packaging technologies satisfy the consumer electronics market’s complex and evolving needs.
With trends like 5G smartphones, biosensors, and more AI features, the market is expected to witness increased smartphone sales in 2022. The deployment of 5G smartphones would also greatly enhance the wireless data communication bandwidth, latency, and density of connected devices. Further, markets like smartwatches and smart speakers gained massive popularity in recent years, owing to their increasing functionalities and features with the help of advanced semiconductor components. Thus, the demand for Wi-Fi and Bluetooth chips skyrocketed.
Moreover, the growing market for gaming consoles and increasing advancement in these products further expand the studied segment’s scope. Over the 4-5 years, gaming console has become high-tech gadgets, and companies like Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo are increasingly investing in their product development to reach the current 8th generation consoles.
These products utilize high technologies, including Blu-ray, motion sensing, VR, 4K and HD quality video, and online functions. Therefore, these applications need chips with an advanced substrate and added functionality, motivating the studied market vendors to invest in the segment. Such developments provide lucrative opportunities for the growth of the studied market.

The Asia Pacific Region is Expected to Witness a High Market Growth Rate

The increasing smartphone adoption rates have made Asia-Pacific one of the world’s largest mobile markets due to the rising population, increasing disposable income, and growing urbanization. For instance, according to the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT), in 2020 and 2021, there were around 112 and 116 mobile phone subscriptions per one hundred inhabitants in China, respectively. The increasing smartphone penetration rate in the region is a significant growth driver for the studied market.
Memory is a crucial market in modern data-centric societies, fueled by important megatrends like mobility, cloud computing, AI, and the IoT. The ramp-up of Chinese memory, the growth of flip-chip DRAM, and 3D-stacking technologies unlock significant opportunities for packaging players.
Additionally, the region is projected to witness rapid growth due to the increased demand for miniaturized circuits and established semiconductor manufacturing companies, OEMs, and ODMs.
Moreover, countries in the region have begun reorganizing supply chains to prioritize their needs, making them resistant to fierce competition. The region is also making preemptive investments to further strengthen its domestic industry ecosystem, so external shocks cannot shake it.
For instance, in May 2021, South Korea announced a plan to spend USD 450 billion over the next ten years on new semiconductor manufacturing capabilities. Semiconductors are Korea’s largest export, most of which are memory productsâ€"DRAM and NAND Flash memory. The new plan aims to boost the nation’s advanced logic chip foundry capacity.
