The growing need for device miniaturization in various electronic products is expected to drive the growth of the microelectromechanical systems market. Miniaturization in electronic devices involves integrating more transistor nodes onto a smaller integrated circuit (IC). The use of miniature devices is increasing due to declining average selling prices (ASPs), lower costs, reduced space requirements, and higher accuracy. The rise of wearable technology has further boosted demand for miniaturized components. These devices can be directly soldered onto circuit boards, contributing to lower technology costs. For example, in August 2023, Counterpoint Research, a China-based global research and consulting firm specializing in technology, reported that global smartwatch shipments grew by 11% year-over-year in Q2 2023 after experiencing declines in both Q4 2022 and Q1 2023, as noted in its Global Smartwatch Model Tracker. Therefore, the need for device miniaturization in various electronic devices is driving the growth of the microelectromechanical systems market.

Leading companies operating in microinverters are focusing on innovating products with technologies such as micromachined pressure sensors to enhance precision, efficiency, and system performance. Micromachined pressure sensors are compact silicon-based devices created using MEMS technology that measure pressure changes and convert them into electrical signals for accurate monitoring and control. For example, in May 2023, STMicroelectronics N.V., a Switzerland-based semiconductor manufacturing company, introduced microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) pressure sensors. These microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) pressure sensors are the first waterproof pressure sensors that integrate small mechanical and electronic components on a silicon chip. They are designed to ensure environmental durability and support digital transformation in demanding indoor and outdoor conditions.
