General Purpose Analog IC Industry Overview
The Global General Purpose Analog IC Market is a moderately fragmented market with major players like Texas Instruments Incorporated, Microchip Technology Inc., NXP Semiconductors, Analog Devices, etc. Companies must constantly adapt to the latest technologies, innovate comprehensive products and processes, and efficiently manage production costs.
May 2022 - Tower Semiconductor, a prominent foundry of high-value analog semiconductor solutions, announced the expansion of its power management platforms with the release of the second generation of its state-of-the-art 65nm BCD, expanding the operation to 24V and decreasing Rdson by 20%. The company is also adding deep trench isolations to its 180nm BCD platform, allowing up to 40% die size reduction for voltages up to 125V. The new releases address the increasing demand for higher power ICs at higher voltages and power efficiency, further enhancing Tower's leading market position in support of the power IC market.
September 2021 - Analog Devices, Inc. launched a new MAX77659 single-inductor multiple-output (SIMO) power management IC (PMIC) with an integrated switch-mode buck-boost charger, which charges wearables, hearables, and Internet of Things (IoT) devices quickly. The MAX77659 SIMO PMIC delivers over four hours of playtime after a short, ten-minute charge and uses a single inductor to power multiple rails, reducing the bill of materials (BOM) by 60% and shrinking total solution size by 50%.
