- The increasing adoption of digitalization, coupled with increased connectivity and mobility demand, is further increasing the complexity of electronics. This is accelerating the demand for passive components in electronics and automotive applications.

- Consumer electronics have the highest consumption of inductors. Inductors are used for power supply in various complex circuits, to manage the current, and also, as a filter in the circuits to cut off undesirable frequencies.​ Consumer goods, such as television sets, wearable devices, and computing devices, keep a steady demand for inductors. However, the newer trend for connected and smart devices is going to see increased circuitry, leading to an increased demand for inductors in the near future. ​

- Furthermore, the PCB miniaturization, advancements in semiconductor and circuit architectures paved way for demand for capacitors in smartphones to increase. On board capacitor deployments in smartphones are typically in the form of multilayer ceramic capacitors class I or class II technology. With 5G adoption increasing, more capacitors will be demanded to suffice the higher efficiency needs. Whereas, a single smartphone consisting components, like chips, camera modules, vibrators, and display, operate within the same voltage level and frequencies. However, since the circuitry for cameras, motors, and speakers requires higher voltage and frequency, multiple inductors are used within a single mobile phone. Accessories, like adapter and headphones, also have inductors in them, hence, making the smartphone segment the biggest consumer of inductors.​

- By defining a component stress-test standard for passive components known as AEC-Q200, which includes a set of tests, a device must pass for it to be qualified. The tests further covers production issues, such as solderability and resistance to soldering heat. This assists the manufacturers to be able to claim greater levels of component reliability. According to the World Economic Forum, more than 12 million fully autonomous cars are expected to be sold per year by 2035, covering 25% of the global automotive market. Therefore, expanding the scope of communicating equipment and devices per vehicles.

- The spread of the COVID-19 coronavirus in 2020 and its impact on the passive electronic components have decreased operation levels across the supply chain, on the component production and raw material production level. This represents a fall in sales among a range of regions and countries. However, the Japanese vendors and allied factories in the region remained stable.

- AVX Corporation warned in a written letter that this constituted a “Force Majeure” situation, directing its product distribution based upon industry. Ohmite kept its China factory for resistors at full operational amid the first quarter of 2020. Whereas, CDE Electronics, a US-based company, announced that short staff due to COVID-19 led to underutilized capacity working in the country.

Key Market Trends

Automotive Industry Expected to Show Significant Adoption

- The automotive electronics are electronic systems used in road vehicles (ignition, radio, telematics, engine management, and in-car entertainment systems, among others). The automotive market is fast emerging to be the most profitable, with increasing opportunities for product innovation. With the increasing demand for hybrid electric vehicles, the need for passive electronic components is on the rise.

- Furthermore, owing to emission and energy concerns, electric vehicles have gained significant prominence. Even with a minor role of capacitors in micro to mild hybrid cars, energy savings can add up to 15%. In contrast, for more significant functions, such as energy storage systems in electrical trams, trains, and subways, energy savings can add up to 25% of the electricity used. Therefore, these factors are motivating automotive vendors to invest in the market studied.

- In March 2020, KEMET Corporation launched new metal composite power inductors, which are ideal for the increasing demands of the automotive market. These new inductors are used in DC to DC switching power supplies, which play an essential role in the growing electrification of modern vehicles.

- Also, resistors are ideal for automotive technicians for diagnosing and testing sensors and monitored circuits. For instance, in March 2020, KOA planned to introduce a new range of wire wound and metal oxide high-power resistors in a ceramic case, which will be dedicatedly used for automotive pre-charge/discharge applications.
