Global Semiconductor Wafer Market Growth 2024-2030
A wafer, also known as substrate or slice, is a thin disk-like round material on which semiconductors are grown. In simple words, a wafer acts as the base to manufacture semiconductors. The first stage in the semiconductor manufacturing process is to produce a wafer. All the semiconductor manufacturing processes operate on the wafer surface to build the end product “chip” or integrated circuit (IC).
The global Semiconductor Wafer market size is projected to grow from US$ 17490 million in 2024 to US$ 19970 million in 2030; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 2.2% from 2024 to 2030.

The global market for semiconductor was estimated at US$ 579 billion in the year 2022, is projected to US$ 790 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 6% during the forecast period. Although some major categories are still double-digit year-over-year growth in 2022, led by Analog with 20.76%, Sensor with 16.31%, and Logic with 14.46% growth, Memory declined with 12.64% year over year. The microprocessor (MPU) and microcontroller (MCU) segments will experience stagnant growth due to weak shipments and investment in notebooks, computers, and standard desktops. In the current market scenario, the growing popularity of IoT-based electronics is stimulating the need for powerful processors and controllers. Hybrid MPUs and MCUs provide real-time embedded processing and control for the topmost IoT-based applications, resulting in significant market growth. The Analog IC segment is expected to grow gradually, while demand from the networking and communications industries is limited. Few of the emerging trends in the growing demand for Analog integrated circuits include signal conversion, automotive-specific Analog applications, and power management. They drive the growing demand for discrete power devices.
