Global Super-junction MOSFET Market 2016-2020

Overview of the global super-junction metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFET) market

The global super-junction metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFET) market is anticipated to witness steady growth during the forecast period and the prospects market growth will be affected by the growing demand for power-efficient electronic products utilizing the MOSFET structure. At present, there has been a drastic increase in the energy cost and the energy usage across the world. As a result, governments of various countries and consumers are striving to conserve energy and lower energy costs by adopting power-saving electronic products. Super-junction MOSFETs improve the MOSFET switch performance and efficiency, while enhancing system reliability and robustness. Such benefits help increase the power efficiency of electronic products and subsequently lowers CO2 emissions and electricity costs. According to Technavio’s market research analysts, the global market for super-junction MOSFETs will grow profoundly at a CAGR of over 13% by 2020.

The recent increase in global data center traffic is another noteworthy factor leading to the growth of the market. With the emergence of cloud computing, mobile devices, and virtualization, the global data center traffic has increased substantially. Public and private businesses are utilizing cloud computing to supplement their internal infrastructure and applications; thus, resulting in increased complexity in managing data centers. Since super- junction MOSFETs enable data centers to use higher levels of power and wider bandwidth, its rate of adoption will also increase over the course of the next four years.
