5G chipset market is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 25.1% during the forecast period. The growing establishment of start-ups across the globe is the major factor driving the growth of the market. According to the GSM Association (GSMA), the deployment of 5G is expected to increase the global GDP by $13.2 trillion by 2035. These new entrants to the market are playing a significant role in this by continuously focusing on developing and launching new products in the market. For instance, in February 2021, EdgeQ, a California-based start-up announced to launch base station on a chip, a new system-on-a-chip (SoC) that can replace multiple functions of a 5G base station. It consumes 50% less power and cost compared to the traditional 5G base stations. Currently, the chip is in the final phase of development and features a programmable PHY and it builds in artificial intelligence features to give a boost to 5G.

Additionally, in July 2022, Saankhya Labs Pvt. Ltd., an Indian fabless semiconductor start-up company developed a chip using 5G broadcasting technology. The chip provides mobile devices with access to broadcast networks to receive video content directly from the broadcaster without using the end-user data plan. Thus, will drive the overall 5G chipset market. 

Segmental Outlook

The global 5G chipset market is segmented based on the IC type, frequency, and end-use. Based on the IC type, the market is sub-segmented into an application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC), radio-frequency integrated circuit (RFIC), cellular IC, and mmwave IC. Based on the frequency, the market is sub-segmented into sub-6 GHz, 24- 39 GHz, and above 39 GHz. Based on the end-use, the market is further sub-segmented into smartphones/tablets, telecom base station equipment, connected vehicles, connected devices, broadband access gateway devices, and others. Among these, the connected vehicles sub-segment is anticipated to grow at a considerable CAGR over the forecast period. However, the telecom base station equipment sub-segment is expected to hold a prominent share of the global 5G chipset market.

Among the frequency segment, the sub-6 GHz sub-segment is expected to hold a considerable share in the market due to the changing customers’ requirements and behaviour which in turn is pushing the market players to launch new products for improving overall customer satisfaction and experience. For instance, in May 2022, MediaTek Inc. launched three new mobile chipsets named Dimensity 1050 mmWave SoC, Dimensity 930 and Helio G99. The Dimensity 1050 SoC supports mmwave and sub-6GHz technology, built on a 6 nm architecture with an octa-core processing unit. Additionally, the product is able to deliver up to 53% faster speeds and greater connectivity to smartphones on LTE + mmwave aggregation. Apart from this, in February 2021, MediaTek Inc launched MediaTek M80 5G modem, which combines mmwave and sub-6 GHz 5G technologies onto a single chip. The modem offers up to 7.67 Gbps downlink and 3.76 Gbps uplink, 5G mmwave (FR2) up to 8CC, standalone and non-standalone 5G network architectures, and other features. 

Regional Outlooks

The global 5G chipset market is further segmented based on geography including North America (the US, and Canada), Europe (Italy, Spain, Germany, France, and Others), Asia-Pacific (India, China, Japan, South Korea, and Others), and the Rest of the World (the Middle East & Africa, and Latin America).  The market can be analyzed for a particular region or country level as per the requirement. The Asia-Pacific region is expected to hold a considerable share in the 5G chipset market during the forecast period, owing to the increasing digitization and availability of developed technological infrastructure in the region.
