Growth in FPGA market is fueled by its growing end applications in many industries where they provide unique advantages of flexibility, low-latency and security to meet complex and evolving requirements.

Data Centres- FPGAs finds application in Data Centres for offloading computing from CPU and accelerate certain functionalities to improve throughput and response time. FPGAs are also being deployed for machine learning applications in Data Centres. The dramatic shift in workplace norms during pandemic and resulting demand for digital and cloud infrastructure is driving the Data Centre market. Construction of new data Centre is underway along with increased investment in edge to support the post-pandemic normal. The need for lower latency at the edge in healthy buildings, smart cities, distributed energy resources, and 5G will also fuel FPGA market.

Autonomous Vehicles and ADAS- Real-time processing, safe and secure against cyber-attacks along with low-power consumptions are the key requirement for autonomous vehicle. Flexible IO and high data rate are also required to enable real-time processing of huge data from multiple sensors. FPGAs are very well suitable for meeting the complex and continuously evolving computing requirement of ADAS and autonomous driving segment. They can be used for both edge and central hub functions of the ubiquitous LiDAR units in AD applications.
