The market for power amplifier is expected to grow at a CAGR of around 8.8% from 2020 to 2027 and expected to reach the market value of around US$ 46.7 Bn by 2027.

Power Amplifier refers to the electric amplifier which is designed to increase the magnitude of the power of a given input signal. As per the operation, the power of the input signal is increased to a level high enough to drive loads of output devices like speakers, headphones, RF transmitters, and others. The power amplifier is particularly designed to drive loads directly and is used as a final block in an amplifier chain.

Market Dynamics

The increasing popularity of power amplifier worldwide in consumer electronics owing to its high efficiency and improved durability is supporting the market value. The increasing usage of LTE technology and need for quality audio is escalating the demand of power amplifier. The technological advancement in power amplifier applications along with the increasing investment in R&D for the development of more advance and efficient solutions for consumers in today’s changing lifestyle is propelling the market value. Furthermore, increasing strategic movements by the manufacturers for the expansion of their profit margin is further projected to create potential opportunities over the estimated timeframe from 2020 to 2027.

On the other hand, performance issues, such as current leakage and breakdown are anticipated to hinder the growth over the forecast period from 2020 to 2027.

Segment Instance

There are basically three types of power amplifiers including Audio Power Amplifier, RF Power Amplifier, and DC Power Amplifiers. Audio power amplifiers are used to increase the magnitude of the power of a weaker audio Signal and are mostly used in speaker driving circuitries of televisions and mobile phones. Moreover, an audio power amplifier ranges from a few milliwatts like in headphone amplifiers to thousands of watts like in Hi-Fi/Home theatre systems. Radiofrequency power amplifiers help in increasing the magnitude of the power of modulated waves to a level high enough for reaching the required transmission distance. DC power amplifiers are used to amplify the power of a PWM (Pulse Width Modulated) signals. These are used in electronic control systems to drive motors or actuators where it takes input from microcontroller systems to increase its power and feed the amplified signal to DC motors or Actuators.

The power amplifier has a wide application across Consumer Electronics, Industrial, and Wireless Communication. These are used in almost all consumer electronic devices right from headphone drivers, televisions, microwave ovens, mobile phones, and Home theatre systems to theatrical and concert reinforcement systems. It is used to control most of the industrial actuator systems such as servos and DC motors. Used in wireless communication for transmission of cellular or FM broadcasting signals to users as well as high power amplifiers increase data transfer rates and usability for the same used in satellite communication equipment.
