The global field-programmable devices (FPDs) market size was USD 7016.3 million in 2022. As per our research, the market is expected to reach USD 12560 million in 2028, exhibiting a CAGR of 10.2% during the forecast period.

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with field-programmable devices (FPDs) market experiencing lower-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden rise in CAGR is attributable to the market's growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over. 

Field-Programmable Devices (FPDs) are electronic devices that can be programmed and reconfigured by users or designers after the manufacturing process. These devices are different from Application-Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs) that are designed for a specific function and cannot be altered once manufactured.

The market for field-programmable devices (FPDs) has been experiencing steady growth over the years due to increasing demand for advanced electronics, the rise of IoT (Internet of Things) devices, and the ongoing technological advancements in the semiconductor industry. Moreover, the need for more efficient and customizable solutions in various applications has also driven the adoption of FPDs.

COVID-19 Impact: Pandemic Hampered the Demand for Market

The semiconductor industry, which includes field-programmable devices (FPDs), experienced significant supply chain disruptions during the pandemic. Many semiconductor manufacturers faced production delays and shortages of key components due to factory shutdowns, logistics challenges, and restrictions on international trade. These disruptions might have affected the availability of FPDs and led to price fluctuations. The demand for FPDs varied across different sectors during the pandemic. While some industries faced a decline in demand due to economic uncertainty and reduced investments, others saw an increase in demand. For example, with more people working from home and an increased focus on remote communication and collaboration, there might have been a rise in demand for FPDs used in communication and networking applications. The pandemic could have impacted R&D activities in the semiconductor industry, leading to delays in the introduction of new FPD technologies or products.
