Pressure Sensors Market Trends

• 
  

  Stringent regulations for automotive are driving the market growth

  
  

Market CAGR for pressure sensors is driven by the growing government regulations, especially for the automotive sector. Legislation named the Transportation Recall Enhancement, Accountability and Documentation Act in the US has made establishing a tire pressure monitoring system compulsory in all vehicles. TPMS sensors calculate tire temperature and air pressure and alert drivers within 20 minutes of the finding of under-inflation of the tires. The US administration also requires all commercial vehicles to have passenger and side airbags installed with pressure sensors, which drive the market.

Additionally, the increasing Internet of Things (IoT) adoption is another major factor spearheading the market's growth. Pressure sensors are transforming the development of smart cities, smart homes and buildings, and smart factories. Hence, increasing IoT-connected devices is anticipated to fuel the market's growth. Moreover, increasing industrial automation and the growing demand for miniaturized consumer devices, including wearables and IoT-connected devices, among others, across regions are among the significant factors driving the pressure sensors market revenue.

The rising adoption of pressure sensors in various automotive applications creates ample opportunities for the market. Many important systems in a car rely on pressure sensors to measure and track critical specifications, which has become an important factor in making roads safer, reducing pollution, and improving the driving experience. Pressure sensors can discover early faults in hydraulic brakes, clean exhaust filters automatically, examine the pressure of critical fluids, trigger airbags faster, and enhance security. Increasing demand for autonomous and Electric Vehicles (EVs) across the globe creates a high demand for pressure sensors. Hence manufacturers are introducing advanced pressure sensor solutions for the market.

For instance, in October 2021, Renesas Electronics, a Japanese semiconductor manufacturing company, introduced the RAA2S425x pressure sensor device. This new device will provide sensor-specific correction and accurate amplification of signals in automotive Battery Electric Vehicles (BEVs), Cell Electric Vehicles (FCEVs), Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEVs), and fuel- for pressure-sensing braking, HVAC systems, and transmission. This device has digital and analog functionality that reduces system Bill-of-Materials (BOM) and production costs. Digital calibration decreases assembly costs by eliminating the need for external devices or lasers to trim sensing elements.
