Flourishing discrete semiconductor market

The use of discrete semiconductor devices such as MOSFET, IGBT, Bipolar transistor, Diode, Bridge rectifier, and Thyristors will grow continuously as long as they are used in power supplies to convert AC-to-DC and DC to AC power. They are also used to control the power input of motors to increase the torque and speed. Today's advanced robot, drone, ADAS system in automotives, smart phones, televisions all need to be charged or powered from grid power which is AC. So you need more and more AC/DC adapters, motor controllers, and many such electrical power controllers, as the use of these systems grow the discrete semiconductor market will grow continuously. There is also some amount of innovation happening in discrete semiconductor market, where semiconductor material silicon is replaced by compound semiconductors such as gallium nitride and siliconcarbide to achieve switching speed and power efficiency and also reduce the size of the device and heat dissipation. The growth of the electric driven vehicles is a significant booster for the discrete semiconductor market, since they are used in large number in battery charging unit, motor controller unit other than normal automotive electronics common to both electric vehicle and IC engine powered vehicles. Due to the significant safety requirements of self driving cars, lot of discrete semiconductor devices for safety and p...
