Silicon on Insulator Market for Radio Frequency front-end module (RF FEM) held the largest share of SOI market in 2018

In terms of value, RF FEM captured the largest share of silicon on insulator market, in 2018. The growth of this segment can be attributed to the increasing demand for RF FEM in upcoming 5G technology as well as consumer electronic devices such as smartphones, laptops, and tablets. Currently, all smartphones use RF chips comprising RF-SOI wafers. In SOI ecosystem, wafer manufacturers and foundry players are also taking initiatives for the development of RF FEM products by deploying SOI technology in it. For instance, GlobalFoundries (US) has developed advanced RF-SOI platforms that integrate low noise amplifiers, power amplifiers, RF switches, and phased-array antennas with RF FEM for advanced 4G LTE. The company is also focusing on improving the performance of its power amplifiers, low noise amplifiers, and RF switches to meet 5G FEM specifications with the help of advanced RF-SOI technology. Hence, these initiatives are driving the SOI market for RF FEM product.

Silicon on Insulator Market for automotive application to grow with the highest CAGR during forecast period

The silicon on insulator market for automotive application expected to grow with the highest CAGR between 2019 and 2024. This growth is mainly attributed to the increasing investments being made by automotive giants and other business leaders for the development of Advanced Driver-assistance Systems (ADAS) and driverless cars. For instance, Audi (Germany) is making efforts to integrate FD-SOI with devices or sensors used in its autonomous cars. These cars require high-speed, low-power, and compact electronic devices for their operations. This, in turn, leads to the increased demand for SOI-based wafers. Moreover, other products in autonomous cars that use FD-SOI
