ONLINE CIRCUIT SIMULATOR MARKET OVERVIEW

The global online circuit simulator market size was valued at approximately usd 0.67 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach usd 1.68 billion by 2033, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of about 12% from 2025 to 2033.

An online electronic circuit simulator is an application program that makes it possible to perform any number of electronic circuits digitally, including design, analysis, and testing. It provides a virtual environment where engineers, educators, and hobbyists can simulate and analyze circuit designs, no longer the need for actual components. They enable a variety of functionalities and features such as circuit creation, component selection, input/output analysis, and signal view, among others. It consists of digital instruments and platforms, designed to reduce the need for real hardware instead of simply simulating electronics in a virtual environment. 

COVID-19 IMPACT

Market Growth Restrained by Pandemic Due to Supply Chain Disruptions

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with the market experiencing higher-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden growth reflected by the rise in CAGR is attributable to the market’s growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels.

The COVID-19 pandemic came with challenges and affected the entire market globally. In the initial phases, the demand for these stores declined significantly.  The consumers reduced spending on non-essential products and services. Due to supply chain disruptions, there was a reduction in raw materials and delays in the production process.  The economic hardships reduced the demand for these simulators.
