Based on the present scenario, the system basis chip market for passenger car holds a major share of the overall system basis chip market. The body electronics application market for system basis chip is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. In terms of market leadership, NXP Semiconductor NV (Netherlands) is ahead of all the other players in the system basis chip ecosystem.

NXP Semiconductor NV (Netherlands) held the leading position in the global system basis chip market in 2015. The company has a broad product portfolio related to system basis chip. The company focuses on merger/acquisition and new product development to expand its market. For instance, in January 2014, the company launched small system-basis chip for CAN high-speed networking. The UJA116x family by NXP comprises a CAN high-speed transceiver, 5-V voltage regulator and protected sensor supply. Its merger with Freescale Semiconductor, Ltd. (U.S.) in December 2015 has made NXP the market leader in automotive semiconductor solutions and in general purpose MCU products. The company’s other prominent strategies include leveraging its extensive range of product offerings, robust R&D activities, and extensive geographical reach to fuel its revenue growth. The company intends to capitalize on emerging markets such as China and India to tap their revenue potential.

Infineon Technologies AG (Germany) was ranked second in the global system basis chip market in 2015. Infineon aims to strengthen its business through new product developments. The company carries out research & development which focuses on widening its product portfolio for automobiles. In September 2015, the company launched TLE926x-3 system basis chips supporting CAN partial network. The devices include fail-safe features to support ECU functional safety concept such as under-voltage monitoring, window watchdog with reset, fail-safe operating mode, and fail-safe outputs. This product launch is expected further establish its SBC market in automotive industry. The company is also focusing on strategic expansions to strengthen its geographic reach. In October 2015, Infineon set its second factory in Wuxi, China to design, develop, manufacture, and assemble a broad range of electronic components and power discrete products and to tap the continuous opportunities of the Chinese automotive, industrial, power management, and security card applications market.
