EV battery management drives a third of silicon demand

IDTechEx report lifts lid on semiconductor use within autonomous and electric vehicles

IDTechEx‘s new report 'Semiconductors for Autonomous and Electric Vehicles 2023-2033' finds that the coming mass adoption of electric vehicles will drive a 10-year CAGR of 20.9 percent in semiconductors used for electric powertrains.

Along with the rise of more autonomous vehicles, this will drive the overall automotive semiconductor market to a CAGR of 9.4 percent over the next decade.

Electric vehicles are seen as the future for cars. This is reflected in recent EV sales figures: since around 2020, they have seen exponential year-on-year growth indicating a transition from an earlier adopter technology to a mainstream one. As a result, IDTechEx predicts a 15 percent CAGR in the battery electric vehicle market over the next decade.

Big power electronics components like the inverter make up a considerable chunk of the value that goes into building an electric vehicle. But IDTechEx’s report drills down further and finds battery management system (BMS) a surprisingly large contributor to silicon demand in electric vehicles, making up approximately one-third of the silicon demand used to make electric powertrains.

'Semiconductors for Autonomous and Electric Vehicles 2023-2033' covers semiconductors throughout the car, including ADAS, autonomy, LiDAR, radar, cameras, 4G connectivity, 5G connectivity, electric powertrains, MCUs, SOCs and more.
