The 5G chipset market is expected to grow from USD 12.8 billion in 2020 to USD 67.2 billion by 2027, at a CAGR of 26.7%. The major factors driving the growth of the 5G chipset market are the growing demand for high-speed internet and broad network coverage, increasing cellular IoT connections, and an increase in mobile data traffic. However, the high cost of the 5G chipset is expected to restrain the growth of the market.

Based on type, RFIC which includes RF transceiver and RF FE segment is attributed to hold a large share of the market in coming years. The mobiles devices and telecommunication infrastructure segments are expected to be the major contributors to the growth of the RFIC market. The increasing number of RF transceiver ICs in smartphones is the key factor expected to drive the growth of the 5G chipset market for RFIC. The deployment of mmWave ICs in 5G infrastructure equipment and the high bandwidth offered by mmWave technology are expected to support the market growth.

Based on the process node,10 to 28 nm is projected to witness the highest growth in the coming years in the 5G chipset market. Advancements in the fabrication process are supporting the improvements in ICs, which has made electronic devices smaller and more power optimized. The 5G chipset market by process node has been segmented into less than 10 nm, 10–28 nm, and above 28 nm. Some of the major process nodes on which 5G chipset components such as modems and RFICs are manufactured include 5 nm, 7 nm, 10 nm, 14 nm, 28 nm, 45 nm, 60 nm, and so on. 5G chipsets with process node between 10 and 28 nm mostly include baseband processors for 5G infrastructure and RFIC components.

Based on frequency, the market for Sub-6 GHz is attributed to hold the largest market size in coming years.5G devices operating in the Sub-6 GHz spectrum band are likely to play an important role in delivering widespread coverage and supporting multiple use cases. Companies such as Huawei and ZTE do 90% of their work in sub-6 GHz. Sub-1 GHz frequency support 5G services in urban, suburban, and rural areas and may find its role in IoT services. This spectrum is likely to help 5G services reach hard-to-reach and populated public areas. Spectrum from 1 to 6 GHz is used for coverage and capacity applications of 5G.

Based on end use, the automotive segmentis likely to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period.5G is expected to play a crucial role in the transformation of the automotive industry through the development of new applications that are difficult to develop with the current generation of cellular technologies. 5G can allow system and application developers to develop a wide range of applications; the major applications include vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V), vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I), vehicle-to-pedestrian (V2P), and vehicle-to-network (V2N). These applications of 5G would further help in the development of other applications, such as automated driving, digital logistics, and intelligent navigation.

The COVID-19 outbreak will certainly delay 5G rollout, thereby affecting every stakeholder in the supply chain. The immediate impact on component manufacturers is low to moderate as semiconductor chips, and other components are mass-produced. Semiconductor manufacturers have enough inventories most of the time to compensate for any unforeseeable circumstances. Also, the impact on semiconductor component production is not severe as semiconductor ICs are manufactured in foundries that are highly automated and involve low labor-intensive tasks.

The 5G chipset market in APAC is foreseen to grow at a significant rate. The growth of the 5G chipset market in APAC is mainly driven by increasing developments (such as R&D activities, investments, and partnerships among companies) related to 5G in countries such as Japan, China, and South Korea. 5G has been launched in 9 countries, and 12 others have planned to roll out in the near future in Asia Pacific. China is one of the major countries involved in the development of 5G network infrastructure. The Chinese government has been quick off the mark in coordinating and stimulating 5G research in China.
