Infineon Applied sciences AG continued to broaden its main market place in automotive semiconductors in 2023. In keeping with the newest analysis by TechInsights[1], the worldwide automotive semiconductor market grew by 16.5 per cent in 2023, reaching a brand new file measurement of US$69.2 billion. Infineon’s total market share elevated by one share level, from almost 13 per cent in 2022 to about 14 per cent in 2023, solidifying the corporate’s place as the worldwide chief within the automotive semiconductor market. Infineon’s semiconductors are important in serving all automotive key purposes like driver help and security methods, powertrain and battery administration, consolation, infotainment and safety.

In keeping with TechInsights, Infineon has elevated its market share in all areas and remained market chief in South Korea and China. As well as, Infineon has made important good points within the Japanese automotive semiconductor market. Infineon has strengthened its sturdy European presence because the second-largest participant, in addition to its top-three place in North America.

“We’re very proud that now we have expanded our place because the main automotive semiconductor provider. This nice success is predicated on our product innovation and system competence that add worth to our clients’ options,” stated Peter Schiefer, President of the Automotive Division at Infineon. “We additionally see this achievement as motivation, since our automotive semiconductors are the premise for the way forward for mobility, making automobiles clear, secure and good.”

“Infineon maintained the highest spot within the TechInsights automotive semiconductor 2023 vendor market share rankings with almost 14 per cent market share,” stated Asif Anwar, Govt Director of Automotive Finish Market Analysis at TechInsights. “The corporate’s automotive semiconductor revenues grew over 26 per cent year-on-year, permitting the corporate to stretch its lead over its second and third place rivals by 4 share factors.”

World primary in automotive microcontrollers

A significant driver of Infineon’s efficiency was sturdy automotive microcontroller (MCU) gross sales. For the primary time, Infineon has reached the world’s primary place on this market. The corporate’s gross sales within the automotive microcontroller phase elevated by almost 44 per cent in comparison with 2022, leading to a 2023 market share of about 29 per cent worldwide.

Microcontrollers are key elements within the automotive business, controlling and monitoring all kinds of methods within the vehicle equivalent to electrical powertrain, electric-electronic (E/E) structure, superior driver help methods (ADAS) and automatic driving, radar and chassis. Infineon’s AURIX flagship microcontroller household and the TRAVEO microcontroller household are the primary contributors to this success, driving the transition within the automotive business in direction of autonomous, linked and electrified autos. The households mix energy and efficiency enhancements with the newest tendencies within the fields of virtualization, AI-based modeling, practical security, cybersecurity and community capabilities. They’re paving the way in which for brand new E/E architectures in addition to the following era of software-defined autos.
