Market Definition

Automotive DC-DC converter comprises inductors, microcontroller units (MCUs), and magnetic core components that are encompassed in a block design for integration into vehicles. The DC-DC converter is attached to an automobile's ignition system to effectively control the engine's restart and shutdown in order to cut emissions. A DC-DC converter runs within a set voltage range to power a myriad of onboard electronic equipment, since the integrated infotainment system aboard an automobile requires a steady supply of electricity of roughly 12V delivered by the powertrain.

DC-DC converters mainly play an important role in isolation and voltage conversion. The proliferation of advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) and in-cabin infotainment has turned vehicles into complex electronic systems on wheels that require multi-level, and noise-free DC-DC converters are fueling the growth of the market to an extent.

Automotive DC-DC Converters Market Dynamics

This section deals with understanding the market drivers, advantages, opportunities, restraints, and challenges. All of this is discussed in detail as below:

• Increase in Sales of Electric Vehicle Across the Region

The automotive industry is showing an enormous growth over the years owing to rising demand for luxurious electric vehicles. Some of the factors driving the sales of the electric vehicles include stringent government regulations towards vehicles emissions, increasing demand for high performance and low emission. It is reported by IEA (international Energy Agency) that consumers had spent USD 120 billion on electric car purchases in 2020, a 50% increase from 2019, which breaks down to a 41% increase in sales of electric cars. This resulted in increased demand for DC-DC converters in EVs.

• Rise in Popularity of Mobility as a Service (MaaS) Model

The concept of Mobility as a Service (MaaS) has been gaining popularity within the electric automotive sector. Increasing number of manufacturers, Service providers, companies, policy makers and the public were focusing their attention on electric mobility for convenience.

Mobility-as-a-Service describes a shift away towards mobility provided as a service from personally-owned modes of transportation due to various factors like increasing pollution levels, rapid urbanization, maintenance cost of vehicles and unavailability and restrictions of parking space in big cities around the world. 

• R&D Efforts to Integrate DC-DC Converters into Commercial Vehicles

The global adoption of stringent emission norms for electric vehicles is motivating the automotive OEMs (Original equipment manufacturers) to integrate advanced technologies in their vehicle offerings to enhance their fuel efficiency. This has resulted in the development of electric drivetrain for medium and heavy commercial vehicles (M&HCVs). The electric drivetrain needs the integration of a DC-DC converter to ensure higher efficiency and better vehicle performance. Furthermore, the increase in sales of commercial vehicles has driven component manufacturers to upgrade their product offerings. 

• Higher Cost of Electronic Component in Electric Vehicle

The electric vehicles are best suitable for transportation and also for the environment as it would help to control the pressure over the air pollution. But the initial cost of electric vehicles are higher as compared to that of gasoline powered engine vehicles because it includes technologically upgraded components which has no harm to the environment, however the operational costs of the electric vehicles are cheaper than the gasoline powered engine vehicles.

• Design Complications in DC-DC Converters

Generally, vehicle electrification is focused on the powertrain driven by electricity and its auxiliary systems such as on-board and off-board charging systems. In addition, an increasing electrical content and complexity coupled with shorter design cycles requires an optimum design team to continually improve the design methods.

Post COVID-19 Impact on Automotive DC-DC Converters Market

COVID-19 created a major impact on the automotive DC-DC converters market as almost every country has opted for the shutdown for every production facility except the ones dealing in producing the essential goods. The government has taken some strict actions such as the shutdown of production and sale of non-essential goods, blocked international trade, and many more to prevent the spread of COVID-19. The only business which is dealing in this pandemic situation is the essential services that are allowed to open and run the processes.

The growth of the automotive DC-DC converters market is attributed to the increasing adoption of electrification of automotive industry across all regions and countries. Although automotive industry faced major issues during pandemic, the electric vehicle sales jumped to higher levels in post pandemic scenario.

Manufacturers are making various strategic decisions to bounce back post-COVID-19. The players are conducting multiple research and development activities to improve the technology involved in the DC-DC converters. With this, the companies will bring advanced technologies to the market. In addition, government initiatives for usage of electric vehicle has led to the market's growth
