The global high electron mobility transistor market size is estimated to reach USD 9.93 billion by 2030, expanding at a CAGR of 7.8% from 2023 to 2030, according to a new study conducted by Grand View Research, Inc. The market growth is driven by increasing consumer demand for high-frequency electronics, such as satellite TV receivers, cell phones, and radar systems. High electron mobility transistors (HEMTs), designed for millimeter-wavelength frequencies, play a pivotal role in enabling the performance and efficiency of these technologies. An increasing number of semiconductor companies using HEMTs for various devices is another major factor driving market growth. For instance, in August 2023, ROHM Co. Ltd., a power semiconductor manufacturer, introduced EcoGaN power-stage ICs named BM3G0xxMUV-LB series with gate driver & built-in 650V gallium nitride (GaN) HEMT.
These ICs were optimized for inside industrial applications, such as office automation devices & data servers, and primary power supplies, including AC-DC and PFC circuits, and other consumer applications, such as AC adapters, home appliances, PCs, refrigerators, TVs, and air-conditioners. The globalization of markets and expansion of wireless communication networks worldwide are driving the demand for HEMTs, as they are pivotal in enhancing signal strength and data transmission capabilities in mobile devices & telecommunications infrastructure. The industry is poised for sustained growth, riding the wave of technological advancements and need for high-frequency, high-performance electronics across multiple sectors.
Furthermore, a rise in investments and developments of HEMT devices, along with rapid technological advancements, support industry growth. The COVID-19 pandemic had a notable impact on the market growth. In the initial phases, disruptions in the global supply chain, including semiconductor manufacturing, led to delays in production and affected the availability of HEMTs. However, as the pandemic accelerated the need for remote work, online education, and telemedicine; the demand for high-frequency electronics and communication equipment, where HEMTs play a crucial role, surged significantly. This unexpected rise in demand for consumer electronics and data communication equipment helped mitigate the early setbacks, ultimately contributing to the market's resilience and adapting to the challenges posed by the pandemic.
