Key End-Market Drivers
Automotive and Electric Vehicles
Consumer Electronics
According to S&P Global, the automotive
semiconductor market remained strong
throughout Q2 2026 as rising EV production,
ADAS adoption, and demand for silicon
carbide, automotive MCUs, and AI-enabled
vehicle platforms continued driving higher
semiconductor content per vehicle.
According to Gartner, consumer electronics
manufacturers faced continued pressure
during Q2 2026 as DRAM and NAND pricing
increased sharply due to AI-related demand
redirecting memory supply away from
smartphones, PCs, and other traditional
consumer devices.
Defence and Aerospace
Healthcare and Medical Technology
The defence and aerospace sector
continued increasing investment in
AI-enabled defence systems, secure
communications, radar technologies, and
advanced compute platforms during Q2
2026 amid growing geopolitical concerns
surrounding semiconductor supply security
and export controls.
Healthcare and medical technology demand
remained stable throughout Q2 2026 as
growing adoption of connected medical
devices, diagnostic imaging systems,
wearable healthcare technologies, and AIassisted platforms continued supporting
demand for analogue, sensing, and lowpower semiconductor solutions.
