Silicon on Insulator Market (SOI) by Wafer Size (200 mm and Less Than 200 mm, 300 mm), Wafer Type (RF-SOI, FD-SOI), Technology (Smart Cut, Layer Transfer), Product (RF FEM, MEMS), Application (Consumer Electronics, Automotive) - Global Forecast to 2024
[147 pages Report] The silicon on insulator market (SOI) is projected to grow from USD 894 million in 2019 to USD 2,186 million by 2024, at a CAGR of 19.6% from 2019 to 2024. Effective use of silicon during the manufacturing of thin SOI wafers and low operating voltage and high performance of SOI-based devices are some of the factors expected to contribute to the growth of the SOI market across the globe. The flourishing Integrated Circuit (IC) industry, expanding SOI ecosystem in Asia Pacific, and increasing use of SOI in IoT applications act as growth opportunities for the SOI market. However, the floating body and self-heating effects in SOI-based devices act as challenges for the manufacturers of SOI wafers.
The Radio Frequency Front-end Module (RF FEM) segment accounted for the largest share of the Silicon on Insulator Market in 2018.
Based on product, the RF FEM segment accounted for the largest share of the silicon on insulator market in 2018. The growth of this segment can be attributed to the increased demand for RF FEM in upcoming 5G technology as well as consumer electronic devices such as smartphones, laptops, and tablets. Currently, all smartphones use RF chips comprising RF-SOI wafers. In the SOI ecosystem, wafer manufacturers and foundry players are also taking initiatives for the development of RF FEM products using SOI technology. For instance, GlobalFoundries (US) has developed advanced RF-SOI platforms that integrate low noise amplifiers, power amplifiers, RF switches, and phased-array antennas with RF FEM for advanced 4G LTE. The company is also focusing on improving the performance of its power amplifiers, low noise amplifiers, and RF switches to meet 5G FEM specifications with the help of advanced RF-SOI technology. These initiatives are expected to fuel the growth of the RF FEM segment of the market.
The automotive application segment of the Silicon on Insulator market is projected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period.
The automotive application segment for silicon on insulator market is projected to grow at the highest CAGR between 2019 and 2024. This growth can be attributed to the increasing investments being made by automotive giants and other business leaders for the development of Advanced Driver-assistance Systems (ADAS) and driverless cars. For instance, Audi (Germany) is making efforts to integrate FD-SOI with devices or sensors used in its autonomous cars. These cars require high-speed, low-power, and compact electronic devices for their operations. This, in turn, leads to the increased demand for SOI-based wafers.

The study on the Silicon on Insulator (SOI) market involved 4 major activities for estimating the current size of the market. Exhaustive secondary research was carried out to collect information about the market, its peer markets, and its parent market. The next step was validating findings, assumptions, and sizing with industry experts across the value chain through primary research. Both, top-down and bottom-up approaches were used to estimate the overall size of the SOI market. It was followed by the market breakdown and data triangulation procedures to estimate the size of different segments and subsegments of the market.
Secondary Research
In the secondary research process, various secondary sources were referred to for identifying and collecting information pertinent to this study on the SOI market. Secondary sources included annual reports; press releases; investor presentations; white papers; journals and certified publications; articles by recognized authors; directories; and databases. Secondary research was conducted to obtain important information about the supply chain of the industry, its value chain, total pool of key players, market segmentation according to the industry trends (to the bottommost level), geographic markets, and key developments from both, market- and technology-oriented perspectives.
Primary Research
Extensive primary research was conducted after gaining knowledge about the current scenario of the SOI market through secondary research. Several primary interviews were conducted with the market experts from both, demand (commercial application providers) and supply (wafer manufacturers and providers) sides across 3 major regions: North America, Europe, and Asia Pacific. Approximately 20% and 80% primary interviews were conducted with parties from demand and supply sides, respectively. The primary data was collected through questionnaires, emails, and telephonic interviews.

Growth opportunities and latent adjacency in Silicon on Insulator Market
Hello, I just wonder if there is any benefit on Automotive OEM manufacturers by using specific IC which is made on SOI wafer. I fully understand some benefit on IC maker side and Tier1 or 2 side and same for OEM. But need to gain more information.
We had purchased the report a few months back. We have some queries on the market and would like to speak to the analyst. Kindly connect with me as soon as possible.
Interested in understanding if you cover the market share of RF SOI foundries (e.g., what percent of an RF SOI foundry is used by company X vs Y vs Z)
Hi, I am wondering if you make discounts for start-ups as we are interested in your report.
Need help for our SOI technology development study. Requirement is for market size by SOI type, application and wafer size.
I see a huge difference between your 2018 report and the one of April 2017 on the same subject (SOI); in particular the alternative technologies to smart cut like Eltran. Could you explain ?
If you would like to provide the report with great discount for the education purpose that lets future engineers recognize SOI's key role in microelectronic industry, please let me know.
Please let me know more about this report. My focus is to understand the RFSOI TAM and who are the chip makers (RFMD/Skyworks/etc.) and their potential growth beyond 2019.
Hi, we need sections 1, 2, 4, and 7 for our Technology Management Program class on microchips.
Need following information 1. 200mm prime wafer historical pricing & future pricing trends per wafer type : Epi wafer (p/p-, p/p+ type), polished wafer (p type), annealed wafer, monitor wafer (N type), SOI wafer 2. World wide top 10 silicon supplier / manufacturer status / new product launches.
I would like to know the market size and growth of SOI semiconductor as well as the major product applications and TAM.
