Market Overview of Global FD-SOI wafer market:
According to our latest research, the global FD-SOI wafer market looks promising in the next 5 years. As of 2022, the global FD-SOI wafer market was estimated at USD XX million, and it's anticipated to reach USD XX million in 2028, with a CAGR of XX% during the forecast years.
The full name of FD-SOI is Fully Depleted-Silicon-On-Insulator, that is, fully depleted SOI technology. ) layer as an insulating layer; the second is to use an ultra-thin top silicon layer to create a fully depleted transistor channel. The biggest feature of FD-SOI is that it can realize the chip area reduction, energy saving, performance improvement and function expansion under Moore's Law without the need to completely transform the equipment structure, integrity and production process. Like FinFET, FD-SOI is the core technology for reducing line width below 28nm, and has great development potential in the fields of Internet of Things, 5G communication, artificial intelligence, automotive electronics and consumer electronics.
FD-SOI (Fully Depleted Silicon-On-Insulator) is a technology that uses existing manufacturing methods and infrastructure to re-grow an ultra-thin single crystal layer on the ultra-thin insulating buried oxide layer (BOX) Silicon layer to realize the technology of planar transistor structure. FD-SOI technology integrates two innovative processes that cooperate with each other: one is to use an ultra-thin oxide insulator on top of the bottom silicon layer. The second is to create the transistor channel with an ultra-thin silicon layer. Its biggest advantage is that it can achieve the chip area reduction, energy saving, performance improvement and function expansion under Moore's Law without the need to completely transform the equipment structure, integrity and production process.
In terms of advanced IC manufacturing process, FinFET dominated by Intel has been popular. In recent years, SOI, including FD-SOI and RF-SOI, has attracted more and more attention, especially with the advent of the Internet of Things and 5G era, its technical advantages and application prospects are becoming more and more promising. At the application level, in general, the target market of FinFET is mid-to-high-end high-performance integrated circuits, while FD-SOI is oriented to mid-range applications that require low power consumption and high cost performance.
There are some challenges in the FD-SOI market, mainly because the IP ecosystem is not mature. At present, the FD-SOI ecosystem is not mature, and it can even be said to be very weak. One of the reasons for the fragility of the FD-SOI process ecosystem is that there are relatively few fabs currently taking this route. Although FD-SOI has relative advantages in scenarios such as low-power design, there are still relatively few companies that actually choose this process.
