Dublin, April 10, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Global FinFET Technology Market: Focus on 7nm, 10nm, 14nm, 16nm, and 22nm FinFET Technology, and Applications in Smart Phones, Wearable, and High-End Networks - Analysis and Forecast, 2018-2023" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering. The global FinFET market is expected to witness significant growth during the forecast period (2018-2023) registering a CAGR of 16.10%.
The advent of metal-oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (MOSFET) led to the production of many compact and efficient devices. However, the reduced channel length between the source and drain led to higher current leakage and gave rise to short channel effects such as surface scattering, velocity saturation, and hot electron effect, among others.
This gave rise to the evolution of FinFET technology capable of overcoming the abovementioned barriers. The FinFET technology witnessed a major increase in adoption rate for the usage in integrated circuits (ICs) due to several advancements in the technology such as superior levels of scalability, and advantages in terms of IC processing. The principle on which FinFET technology works is similar to that of conventional MOSFET. A major characteristic of FinFET is that the conducting channel is wrapped by a fin, which forms the main body of the device. This growth in the FinFET technology market is due to the increasing IC industry which is providing ample growth opportunities to the FinFET technology market. Additionally, this high growth is also supported by the growing demand of smartphones from consumers, requiring enhanced processors which improves day-to-day functioning. However, designing challenges for the designers and higher wafer cost and gate cost of FinFET in comparison to FD-SOI are restraining the overall growth of the global FinFET technology market. The FinFET technology market has been tracked along the lines of technology node (7nm, 10nm, 14nm, 16nm, 22nm), product, end user, and regions. Revenue generated from various end-user segments, namely, smartphones, computer and tablets, wearables, automotive, and high-end networks, have been analyzed. The report also covers the FinFET technology market on a global scale and consequently provides revenue data of the key regions. A separate segment specifically has been dedicated to the key global regions: North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific (APAC), and Rest-of-the-World (RoW). The use of advanced technology nodes for producing compact and efficient devices has changed the market paradigm by providing consumers with fast and efficient processors. The different technology nodes such as 7nm, 10nm, 14nm, 16nm, and 22nm are manufactured with FinFET technology. In terms of adoption, the 14nm technology node is widely used owing to its adaptability in low power and high-performance application areas. As a result of continuous technological advancements, 7nm technology node is expected to grow at a robust rate owing to high demand from consumer electronics and automotive segment. On the basis of end user, the global FinFET technology market is segmented into central processing unit (CPU), micro control unit (MCU), system on chip (SoC), field-programmable gate array (FPGA), network processors, and graphics processing unit (GPU). SoC segment is the highest revenue generating segment among all the applications of FinFET technology; whereas FPGA is expected to grow at the highest rate during the forecast period. FinFET technology market is used by various end users such as automotive, smart phones, wearables, computers and tablets, high-end networks, and others. Smart phones segment is the highest revenue generating segment among all the end users of FinFET technology owing to the high demand of smartphones from consumers for enhanced processors which improve day-to-day functioning. The wearables segment is expected to grow at the highest rate during the forecast period because of changing needs of the consumers for smart watches which can assist in tracking and monitoring human body for day to day functioning. The market study has identified North America as the leading region in the global FinFET technology market accounting for almost 39.01% of the net revenue generated by the FinFET technology, and has estimated that the region will continue its dominance during the forecast period as well. APAC is also anticipated to be a promising market with a multi-fold rise in demand expected from China, South Korea, Japan, and other Asian nations in the coming future.
