System-on-Chip Market Overview

The Global System-on-Chip Market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 8.3% during the forecast period 2024-2031

A System-on-Chip (SoC) is an integrated circuit that integrates all components of a computer or other electronic system. These components typically (but not always) include a central processing unit (CPU), memory, input/output ports, and secondary storage – all on a single substrate or microchip, the size of a coin.

Depending on the application, it may contain digital, analog, mixed-signal, and often radio frequency signal processing functions. As they are integrated on a single substrate, SoCs consume much less power and take up much less area than multi-chip designs with equivalent functionality. Because of this, SoCs are very common in mobile computing (such as in Smartphones) and edge computing markets. Systems on chips are commonly used in embedded systems and the Internet of Things. The growing demand for smart electronics and the development of new technologies will be significant factors driving the global SoC market during the forecast period.

The report covers all the major trends and drivers playing a vital role in the growth of the global SoC market. The global SoC market has been segmented by type, application, and by region.
