세계의 모놀리식 마이크로파 IC 시장 예측(-2032년) : 컴포넌트별, 재료 유형별, 주파수대역별, 용도별, 최종사용자별, 지역별 분석

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Monolithic Microwave IC Market is accounted for $13.62 billion in 2025 and is expected to reach $35.80 billion by 2032 growing at a CAGR of 14.8% during the forecast period. An MMIC, or Monolithic Microwave Integrated Circuit, is a small-scale electronic circuit that combines various microwave elements like transistors, capacitors, resistors, and inductors onto a single semiconductor chip. It is designed for high-frequency uses such as radar, satellite links, and wireless communication, providing consistent performance and compactness. MMICs facilitate functions like amplification, frequency conversion, and signal filtering, offering greater integration and miniaturization benefits compared to circuits built from separate components.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Global 5G network rollout

Telecom operators are investing heavily in base stations, small cells, and beamforming technologies, all of which rely on MMICs for signal amplification and processing. As 5G networks scale across urban and rural regions, the need for compact, power-efficient components is intensifying. MMICs are pivotal in enabling millimeter-wave transmission, low-latency communication, and high data throughput. Emerging applications in smart cities, autonomous vehicles, and industrial IoT are further accelerating adoption. The convergence of 5G with edge computing and AI-driven network optimization is reinforcing MMIC relevance across global deployments.

Restraint:

High development and manufacturing costs

Producing high-performance chips often involves expensive substrates like gallium arsenide (GaAs) and gallium nitride (GaN), which elevate manufacturing overheads. Advanced packaging techniques and precision lithography add further financial strain, especially for smaller players. Regulatory compliance with RF safety standards and electromagnetic compatibility also increases development timelines and costs. Integrating MMICs into multi-band, multi-mode systems demands rigorous testing and validation, slowing time-to-market. These financial and technical hurdles can limit innovation and restrict market entry for emerging firms.

Opportunity:

Advancements in gallium nitride (GaN) technology

GaN enables superior signal amplification at higher voltages, making it ideal for 5G, radar, and satellite communications. Recent innovations in GaN-on-SiC substrates are improving reliability and reducing heat dissipation challenges. Manufacturers are developing compact, wideband GaN amplifiers tailored for phased-array antennas and electronic warfare systems. The technology is also gaining traction in automotive radar and wireless charging infrastructure. As fabrication techniques mature, GaN MMICs are becoming more cost-effective, opening doors for broader commercial and defense applications.

Threat:

Intense competitive rivalry

Companies are racing to deliver smaller, faster, and more power-efficient chips to meet evolving telecom and defense requirements. Patent portfolios and proprietary design architectures are becoming key differentiators in securing market share. Mergers and acquisitions are reshaping the competitive terrain, with players consolidating capabilities across RF front-end modules and system integration. Price pressures and rapid innovation cycles are forcing firms to continuously upgrade their product lines. Without sustained R&D investment and strategic partnerships, vendors risk losing relevance in this fast-moving market.

Covid-19 Impact:

The pandemic disrupted MMIC supply chains, delaying component deliveries and stalling infrastructure rollouts. Lockdowns impacted wafer fabrication, packaging, and testing operations, leading to temporary shortages in RF modules. However, the crisis accelerated digital transformation, with increased demand for remote connectivity, telemedicine, and virtual collaboration tools. These shifts drove renewed investment in 5G and satellite broadband, indirectly benefiting MMIC demand. Post-Covid strategies now emphasize supply chain resilience, localized manufacturing, and agile design cycles to mitigate future disruptions.

The amplifiers segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

The amplifiers segment is expected to account for the largest market share during the forecast period, due to its critical role in signal boosting across telecom, aerospace, and defense systems. These components are essential for maintaining signal integrity in high-frequency applications such as 5G base stations and radar systems. Technological advancements in low-noise and high-power amplifiers are enhancing system performance and energy efficiency. GaN-based amplifiers are gaining prominence for their ability to operate at higher voltages and frequencies. The segment is also witnessing innovation in linearity and bandwidth optimization for multi-band operations.

The automotive segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

Over the forecast period, the automotive segment is predicted to witness the highest growth rate, driven by the proliferation of advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) and vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication. MMICs are increasingly used in radar sensors, collision avoidance systems, and in-vehicle connectivity modules. The shift toward autonomous driving is accelerating demand for high-frequency, low-latency RF components. Emerging trends include 77 GHz radar systems and ultra-wideband (UWB) positioning technologies. Automakers are integrating MMICs into electric vehicle platforms to support wireless charging and infotainment systems. As vehicles become smarter and more connected, MMICs are becoming indispensable to next-gen mobility solutions.

Region with largest share:

During the forecast period, the Asia Pacific region is expected to hold the largest market share, supported by robust telecom infrastructure and electronics manufacturing. Countries like China, South Korea, and Japan are aggressively deploying 5G networks and investing in semiconductor self-sufficiency. Regional OEMs are partnering with global players to localize MMIC production and reduce import dependency. The region is also a hub for consumer electronics, driving demand for RF components in smartphones, wearables, and IoT devices. Government-backed initiatives in defense modernization and satellite communication are expanding MMIC applications.

Region with highest CAGR:

Over the forecast period, the North America region is anticipated to exhibit the highest CAGR, fueled by cutting-edge R&D and defense sector investments. The U.S. leads in developing advanced radar, electronic warfare, and space communication systems that rely heavily on MMICs. Silicon Valley and other tech hubs are driving innovation in RF design tools, simulation platforms, and packaging technologies. Regulatory support for spectrum allocation and 5G deployment is accelerating commercial adoption. Startups and established firms alike are exploring mmWave applications in AR/VR, smart homes, and industrial automation.
