3D ICs are changing the face of Semiconductor Industry and have found way into advanced electronic devices

 

Overview

3D ICs are the most recent in the range of technology available for medical imaging and are revolutionizing the way that health care is delivered. They have given doctors a completely new range of options and have enabled them to give better treatment to patients. The first reason why ICs are so useful is they offer patients a wider range of features than ever before, thanks to the advances that have been made in today's digital health industry. By using this advanced method, doctors can access the latest information about their patients in order to provide the best possible care. Doctors will have the ability to view every single part of a patient's body, which allows them to make a more informed decision about their treatment.

Market Drivers

Growing demand for advanced electronic products is expected to propel the 3D ICs market growth over the forecast period. Advanced electronic products are available in small and compact sizes. In fact, many electronic products have been miniaturized and have witnessed massive demand among consumers across the globe. Three-dimensional integrated circuits offer an ideal solution to such devices since it allows high-performing microchips with low power consumption. It also enables high-speed transmission, data processing, as well as connectivity to smart devices, and enhanced storage capacity. For instance, in August 2020, Samsung introduced a new 3D IC solution eXtended-Cube (X-Cube) for next-generation applications including AI, 5G, and AR &VR. Thus, these factors are expected to propel the 3D ICs market growth over the forecast period. Moreover, the rapid development of high-performance networking devices with large storage capacity is expected to boost 3D ICs market growth over the forecast period.

Market Restraint

High-cost 3D ICs, which pose challenges to commercialization for mainstream applications are expected to hinder the 3D ICs market growth over the forecast period.
