Overview of the global microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) production equipment market
Technavio’s market research study has identified the use of MEMS in consumer electronics to be one of the primary growth factors for the MEMS production equipment market. Microelectromechanical system (MEMS) are increasingly used in consumer electronic devices such as smartphones, tablets, and gaming consoles. MEMS are popularly utilized in applications such as GPS and gaming, in the form of motion sensors. Moreover, the microphones in mobile devices also primarily use MEMS to enhance the audio quality and improve the accuracy of voice command functions. With the growing usage of wearables devices such as smartwatches and fitness trackers and the introduction of smart glasses, the demand for MEMS production equipment will increase in the coming years. Our market research analysts have estimated that this market will register a revenue of more than USD 560 million by 2021.
The growing need to reduce the packaging size and to integrate 9-axis sensors in a single package lead to the continuous evolution of MEMS packaging. Vendors are focusing on achieving standardization in packaging materials for various sensors due to the increase in unit shipments of MEMS sensors. Advanced packaging techniques adopted by vendors such as temperature wafer bonding, packing MEMS at wafer dicing level, doped polysilicon, and silicon interposers for packaging will benefit the vendors. According to our analysis, the advancements in MEMS packaging will be one of the key factors that will have a positive impact on the growth of the MEMS production equipment market.
