Modular Instruments Market based on By Platform (PXI, AXIe, VXI), By End Use (Telecommunication, Automotive & Transportation), By Region– Global Forecast up to 2030


Over the course of the forecast period (2021–2030), a CAGR of 6.8% is anticipated in the modular instruments market. An electronic device known as a modular instrument is one that assembles different kinds of functional cards to support a variety of input/output channels or modify its measurement capabilities based on the needs of the particular application. Faceless instruments are those that often use a computer user interface in place of inbuilt displays and controls. Additionally, it comes with drivers—programmatic software interfaces. Various mechanical and electronic goods are developed, designed, maintained, verified, and repaired with the use of this equipment. Modular instruments are used in photonics production, submicron and nano-precision technologies, mechanical and electrical engineering, and other fields because they are small, adaptable, quick, affordable, and come in a range of sizes.

The market for modular instruments is anticipated to develop as a result of the growing uptake of the Internet of Things, automotive, 5G, virtual reality, and artificial intelligence (AI) in the semiconductor and electrical sectors. There is a considerable global need for data centres due to the rapid use of cloud computing in nearly every industry, which has increased reliance on IT services.

The number of connected devices has increased as a result of the continued rollout of LTE and technological developments in wireless connectivity, including Wi-Fi, GPRS, and WiMax (global interoperability for microwave access). Thus, automated test and measurement (T&M) configuration in North America is made possible by the proliferation of modular equipment.
