Field Effect General Purpose Transistors Market Size

Field Effect General Purpose Transistors Market Analysis

The Global Field Effect General Purpose Transistors Market is expected to witness growth at a CAGR of 4.87% over the forecast period. The COVID-19 outbreak has had a significant impact on the global economy. Many end-user industries have been affected, including semiconductors. A large part of the manufacturing process of electronic components includes work on the factory floor, where people are in close contact as they collaborate to boost productivity. Many manufacturing factories were shut down worldwide to contain the spread of COVID-19. For instance, many semiconductor manufacturing facilities were shut down due to government mandates in countries like Malaysia, China, Malaysia, and the Philippines. This impacted their ability to supply products to their clients and created a gap in demand and supply.

• The growing use of electronic devices such as Television, Mobile devices, and Electric Vehicles favorably boosts market development. FETs are extensively used in Integrated Circuits (ICs) due to their compact size. Other factors, such as rising electronic component downsizing and adopting different government efforts on modern power distribution and generating infrastructure, are projected to drive the market forward.
• General Purpose Transistors are the most common type of transistor in digital circuits, with the potential to be integrated into a memory chip or microprocessor. These transistors are also commonly used in voltage-controlled circuit switches and have a high switching speed and a switching time in order of nanoseconds. It also has applications in low-power high-frequency converters. In addition, it can be used in amplifying circuits and chopper circuits. Moreover, it can be used as an inverter in electronic circuits.
• Advance medical devices are the key to modernizing the quality of care for patients. With the increase of the health care market, super-specialty hospitals are using ultra-modern reliable equipment in their treatment process. Non-intrusive imaging of the body empowers the specialist to perform operations while minimizing harm to neighboring tissue and organs. Field Effect General Purpose Transistors have been utilized in CT and MRI scanners to control the gantry on which the patient is leaning. They are also used in the power supply for X-ray and ultrasound machines.
• In January 2022, Magnachip Semiconductor Corporation announced that the company had launched 11 new generations of general-purpose high-voltage 600V Super Junction Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistors (SJ MOSFETs). The company has already released product samples and plans to begin mass production of them in March 2022.
• Further, in May 2022, Efficient Power Conversion Corp (EPC) of El Segundo, CA, USA - which makes enhancement-mode gallium nitride on silicon (eGaN) power field-effect general purpose transistors and integrated circuits for power management applications has expanded its selection of low-voltage, off-the-shelf gallium nitride transistors with the introduction of the EPC2066 (0.8mΩ typical, 40V) GaN FET.
