Embedded systems refer to application-specific combination of electronic hardware and software to meet specific system requirements they are embedded into. These embedded systems operate in manufacturing as a programmable operating system, which performs multiple tasks including temperature adjustment, driving, motors, networking equipment, and assembly line speed control. These systems are also used for monitoring, controlling, and assisting operation of equipment, machinery, and plants. The term 'embedded' reflects the fact that they are an integral part of a system, and they offer significant features such as speed, accuracy, size, reliability and adaptability.

COVID-19 scenario Analysis: 

• Global embedded systems market has been significantly impacted by the COVID-19 outbreak. New projects throughout the world have stalled, which, in turn, have led to a significant decline in demand for these systems.
• Global factories have struggled to integrate new embedded systems as workers have stayed in their homes, which has disrupted the global supply chains.
• The impact of COVID-19 on this market is temporary as just the production and supply chain is stalled. Once the situation improves, production, supply chains, and demand for these embedded systems are gradually going to increase.
• This COVID-19 lockdown would help companies think about more advanced quantum computing to enhance efficiency. 

Top impacting factors: Market Scenario Analysis, Trends, Drivers and Impact Analysis

Globally, rise in consumer electronics sales and increase in automation demand in processing and manufacturing industries are the primary drivers of growth in the embedded system market. In addition, greater use of embedded system in cars along with growth in the automotive industry would create new opportunities for the embedded system market. Persistent research and development aimed at developing smarter and energy-efficient electronic devices is expected to have a significant effect on growth of the global market for embedded systems. These systems are also commonly used in applications such as automotive, aeronautics, space, rail, mobile communications, and electronic payment solutions to support growth of the global embedded system market.

The global embedded systems market trends are as follows:

Communication segment accounted for the largest share of the market

Embedded systems are used for high-speed data transfer in routers, Ethernet modules, wireless networks, and protocol converters to support expanding communication network. In various network and telecom applications, embedded hardware such as FPGA and ASIC are used. Telecom providers also use embedded hardware such as FPGA to incorporate hard IP for interfaces such as Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) Express, 100 G Ethernet, and DDR3/4 for high speed data transfer. In addition, technologies such as eASIC are increasingly being used in Radio Access Network (RAN) equipment, which are cost-effective and meet power targets.

Asia-Pacific is expected to hold the largest share

Asia-Pacific is projected to hold the largest share of the embedded device market. Rise in per capita income and continuing large-scale industrialization and urbanization are factors that drive growth of this region's embedded device sector. It is also projected that rise in use of autonomous robots and embedded vision systems would lead to increase in demand for embedded device hardware such as microprocessors and controllers for use in industrial applications in Asia-Pacific.
