Recently, the U.S. Semiconductor Industry Association (SIA) released a forecast that has injected strong confidence into the global technology sector: global semiconductor sales are expected to reach a historic high of USD 791.7 billion in 2025, representing a year-on-year increase of 25.6%, with the potential to surpass the USD 1 trillion mark in 2026.
Among all segments, logic and memory products—the two core pillars—are projected to see particularly significant growth. SIA President John Neuffer emphasized that the rapid development of technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things (IoT), and autonomous driving continues to fuel sustained demand for chips.
This data sends a clear signal: a “new power” era driven by computing power and intelligence has arrived. As the energy backbone of all electronic systems, the power supply industry is now standing at an unprecedented and highly certain growth window.
■■ The “Core” Power Demand Behind Industry Growth ■■
The explosive growth in semiconductor sales essentially reflects the global digital transformation’s insatiable demand for computing and data access. This momentum is exerting a profound and tangible pull on the power management sector from top to bottom.
Demand Upgrade: From Components to System-Level Energy Solutions
The advancement and integration of chips have directly led to exponential growth in power supply complexity within end devices. Whether it is AI data center GPUs running large-scale models or smart vehicles integrating countless sensors, internal power networks have evolved from simple voltage conversion into complex system engineering—requiring multiple voltage domains, high-precision dynamic regulation, intelligent sequencing management, and efficient thermal control.
This means the value and technological content of power management ICs (PMICs), power semiconductors (such as SiC and GaN), and customized power modules per device are rising significantly.
Technology Evolution: Efficiency and Power Density as Core Metrics
Under the dual pressures of carbon neutrality goals and performance competition, energy efficiency has become a fundamental market entry threshold—often even more critical than performance itself. While semiconductor process advancements reduce core computing power consumption, they also pass down an extreme pursuit of minimizing every milliwatt of loss across the power chain.
This is driving continuous innovation in power technologies: accelerated commercialization of wide-bandgap materials, higher-frequency and higher-efficiency topologies, and precise digital power control have become essential pathways to meet next-generation chip power supply challenges.
Application Expansion: New Tracks Defining High-Value Markets
The AI and automotive electronics sectors highlighted in the report are precisely the primary arenas for value transformation in power technologies. AI data centers demand ultra-high efficiency and high power density power and thermal solutions. Electric vehicles, centered on 800V high-voltage platforms, impose stringent requirements on e-drives, onboard chargers (OBCs), and DC-DC converters in terms of safety, efficiency, and power density.
These emerging scenarios not only represent vast market potential but also reshape the competitive landscape and technical barriers across the power industry chain with their elevated standards.
