Factors Affecting the Growth of the Embedded Processor Industry:
- Internet of Things (IoT) Growth:
IoT includes a wide range of devices, from smart home appliances and wearables to industrial sensors and infrastructure. These devices require embedded processors to perform various functions such as data collection, processing, and communication. IoT devices rely on embedded processors to enable connectivity to the network and process data locally or in the cloud. Embedded processors play a key role in adding intelligence to IoT devices by running the applications, algorithms, and protocols required for their operation.
- Miniaturization and Power Efficiency:
The trend towards smaller, lighter and more portable electronic devices such as smartphones, tablets, wearables and IoT sensors has led to the need for embedded processors with compact form factors and low power consumption. These processors enable the development of sleek and battery-powered devices that users can easily wear or carry. Power efficiency is important for battery-powered devices to extend their runtime between charges and improve the user experience. Embedded processors optimized for low power consumption help increase battery life, make devices more practical and reduce the need for frequent recharging.
- Advancements in Connectivity Standards:
As connectivity standards continue to evolve, new generations offer faster data transfer rates, enabling high-speed communication between devices. Embedded processors supporting advanced standards such as Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5 and 5G cellular connectivity facilitate faster data transmission, reduce latency and improve overall system performance. New connectivity standards often come with increased range and coverage, making reliable communication possible over long distances and in challenging environments. Embedded processors equipped with improved radio technology and antenna design enable devices to maintain connectivity even in areas with weak signals or interference, expanding the range of applications.
