NEW YORK – As per Persistence Market Research‘s new industry analysis, the global intelligent power modules market is poised to surge at a CAGR of over 12% through 2031.
Engineers explore the characteristics of insulated-gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs), such as low-saturation and high speed voltage, with the help of intelligent power modules (IPMs), and these characteristics are further combined with strong protection technologies. There is an increase in the demand for energy efficiency in consumer electronics, which is one of the major factors creating opportunities for IPM manufacturers.
Design engineers are facing many challenges to reduce energy consumption and limit energy costs. A smart solution of integrating all the necessary power semiconductors and the driver circuit in a single integrated package is offered by IPMs.
Additionally, intelligent power modules can be used for driving induction motors more effectively. There is also an increase in use of intelligent power modules for power conversion in inverters, as they help in decreasing radiated noise by more than 6dB.
All the above factors, and more, which are mentioned in the full research report, are driving demand for intelligent power modules.

“Intelligent power modules can be used for improvements in motors used in residential and industrial applications, as they can drive induction motors more effectively. Thus, increasing need for intelligent power modules for motor control applications will help the market grow at a rapid pace,” says a Persistence Market Research analyst
COVID-19 Pandemic Impact Analysis
There has been a change in the demand patterns for major semiconductor end markets. The semiconductor industry had to adjust as the pandemic shifted demand for intelligent power module (IPM) applications. As such, decreased demand for intelligent power modules will extend beyond 2020.
The intelligent power modules market saw a steep decline in 2020 due to the highly disruptive global pandemic, as demand for power modules plunged from key markets of automotive electronics and smartphones. Discrete and module segments of semiconductors witnessed flat market growth in 2020.
Before the pandemic, a significant rise in the wireless market was forecasted. Now, the wireless market will see steady growth as the COVID-19 pandemic has come into sharp focus. Revenue from MOSFET power modules is also expected to decrease due to supply chain interruptions and store closures.
