This market research study presents a detailed segmentation of the global radio frequency filter market by application (smartphones, GPS devices, tablets, and others), by technology (SAW filter and BAW filter), and by geography (Americas, APAC, Europe, and ROW). The leading vendors in the market are Avago Technologies, Qorvo, Murata Manufacturing, TDK, and NXP Semiconductors.
Technavio’s market research analysts estimate the global RF filter market to grow at a CAGR of 15% between 2016 and 2020. Factors such as the proliferation of smartphones and tablets, increasing development of smart cities, emergence of advanced consumer products, and short replacement cycle of portable electronic devices, drive the growth of RF filter market. The introduction of multi-band and multi-mode mobile computing devices integrated with wireless communication systems such as Bluetooth, wireless local area networks, near-field communication, and GPS has driven the demand for RF filters as they enable efficient signal filtering in communication devices. APAC dominates the global RF filter market due to the high concentration of consumer electronics manufacturers and high disposable income in the region.
The new market research report from Technavio provides a breakdown and analysis of the RF filter segments by technology.
“Increasing investments in research and development by market vendors will propel the growth prospects for this market until the end of 2020. For instance, well-established RF filter vendors like Broadcom and Qorvo are investing an enormous amount of time and money in their R&D departments to develop high-performing RF filters, which will bolster this market’s growth until the end of 2020,” says Asif Ghani, Lead Analyst, Semiconductor, Technavio Research
At present, the surface acoustic wave (SAW) filter segment dominates the RF filter market and accounts for nearly 76% of the market share. When used at low frequencies, SAW filters have a better performance and is more cost-effective than BAW filters, thereby aiding in this segment’s growth until the end of 2020.
The key vendors in the global RF filter market include Avago Technologies, Qorvo, Murata Manufacturing, TDK, and NXP Semiconductors. This market is highly competitive and is dominated by a few large suppliers. The competition among the vendors is expected to intensify during the forecast period due to the formation of bigger enterprises through mergers and acquisitions.
