KEY FINDINGS

COVID-19 IMPACT

Descended Demand for Automotive Equipment Halted the Market Progress

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with the isolated gate drivers 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.

The COVID-19 pandemic impacted several industries such as chemical, machinery, energy and power, and others by disrupting in supply chain and shortage of raw materials & equipment. In addition, automotive and industrial manufacturing also experienced a slowdown in demand due to lockdowns that reduced consumer spending and created economic uncertainties. This decrease in demand for products utilizing isolated gate drivers directly affected the growth of the market. However, after an ease in restrictions and the cease of the travel ban, the market began to rebound and is expected to gain higher demand for isolated gate drivers during this forecast period due to growing demand for EVs.
