COVID-19 Impact Analysis
COVID-19 crisis resulted in uncertainty in the stock market, immense slowdown of the supply chain, lowered business confidence, and increase in panic among customer segments. The overall impact of the pandemic impacted production process of several industries, including semiconductor & electronics. Trade barriers further constrain demand and supply outlook. Governments of different countries have already declared total lockdown and temporarily shut down industries, which adversely affected the overall production process.
COVID-19 has a huge impact on end use and economy. Electronics manufacturing hubs have been temporarily shut down to restrict COVID-19 spread among individuals. This has majorly affected supply chain of the market by creating shortages of components and finished goods. Lack of business continuity has ensured significant negative impacts on shareholder returns and revenue, which are expected to create financial disruptions in the computer on module market.
The impact of COVID-19 on the manufacturing industry has significantly affected the global economy. Electronic components, such as PCBs, LED chips & wafers, ICs, and other semiconductor devices, are mostly imported from China. The prices of semiconductor components have increased by 2 to 3%, owing to shortage of supplies due to shutdown of manufacturing units. However, by the end of 2020, the computer on module market share is expected to resume its supply chain operation.
Top Impacting Factors
The significant factors that impact the global computer on module market growth include advantages of robust quality, platform scalability, supreme performance, and ease of use. There is a high demand for computer on module in the aerospace & defense industry and rugged embedded computers, owing to design constraints and all necessary components to be integrated in a module form.
However, complex process of integration of multiple components to a single module hampers growth of the market. Furthermore, increase in use of computer on module in healthcare and consumer electronics equipment is estimated to provide lucrative opportunities for growth of the computer on module market during the forecast period.
Rise in Need For Industrial Automation
Computer on module have major applications in industrial automation, where they are majorly used across process control and discrete manufacturing on the production facility. Industrial automation uses control systems, including robots and Internet of Things (IoT) to handle various machineries and processes. These robots and IoT technologies are based on computer on modules to offer high accuracy, precision, and enhanced performance of manufacturing processes.
Complex Integration Process of Advanced Electronics Devices
The computer on module market focuses more on incorporation of multiple functionalities in a module form, which leads to complex designing. Designing of a complex device requires robust methodology, skillset, and different toolset for integration, adding up to extra cost.
These developing innovative technologies generate demand for more functionality devices to be integrated into systems, which makes them more complex devices. In addition, incorporation of multiple components into single devices is a complex task, owing to operating modes, different functionalities, and operating voltages. Therefore, this factor restraints the market growth.
