SYNTHÈSE DU MARCHÉ
1.1 Introduction
A semiconductor is a material that possesses electrical characteristics of an insulator, but in which an electron can contribute to an electric current flow. It therefore possesses an electrical conductivity intermediate between that of metals and insulators. The semiconductor market covers products manufactured using this type of material. Semiconductors are widely used in electronics to produce various components that are then used in devices such as telephones, automobiles, computers, and more. Some of the most important are:
- Microprocessors: Essential components for the operation of computers and electronic devices.
- Memories: Solid-state memories used to store data and information.
- Integratedcircuits: Devices that combine several electronic functions and components on a single chip.
- Sensors: Devices that detect and measure various physical quantities, such as temperature, pressure, light, and motion.
- Powerdevices: Components used to manage electrical energy in high-power applications, such as electric motors, power supplies, and solar power systems.
The year 2022 saw strong revenue growth in the microelectronics and semiconductor industry in Italy. Companies experienced this increase due to the growing demand for products and services in the industrial and automotive sectors. There were also new research and development initiatives and positive collaboration between industry and academia. However, there has been a shortage of skilled personnel that could hinder the development of the industry.[ElectronicsMarkets]
The global semiconductor market had a size of $527.88 billion in 2021 and is expected to grow from $573.44 billion in 2022 to $1,380.79 billion in 2029, registering a compound annual growth rate(CAGR) of 12.2 percent over the forecast period.[Globenewswire]
