ESD Protection Devices Market

Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) is the sudden electrical flow between two charged objects due to an electric short or dielectric barrier breakdown. It is generally accompanied by a visible spark. An electrostatic discharge is very harmful for electronic equipment, as it can destroy the complete circuit from within. So, electrostatic devices are responsible to preventing the consumer and commercial electronic devices. The electrostatic discharge protection devices help in channelizing the excess current flow to the ground potential. The ESD protection devices have become an important part for the modern age advanced and compact electronic devices, the prime reason for this being the fact that the ICs are isolated from the ground.

The current generation electronic devices are compact and are made to sustain customers’ need for high performance and high reliability. The compact circuits in the highly accepted electronic devices, being more prone to electrostatic discharge are proving to be one of the major drivers for the global ESD protection devices market. In addition, most of the private and public sector organizations are moving steadily towards complete digitization with most of the work and transactions being done on electronic devices. The manufacturers’ responsibility to make the digitization reliable and robust, is also contributing as an important driver for the growth of the global ESD protection devices market. Moreover, the increasing adoption of the IOT Technologies and construction of infrastructures like data centres has helped in bolstering the global ESD protection devices market further. However, as the electronic gadgets get further enhanced and compact, there are creating challenges for the use of traditional ESD protection devices. Furthermore, the effectiveness of the ESD protection is also vastly reduced when the electronic item is working on a standalone battery power source due to the missing ground terminal. These two are the major impeding factors for the growth of global ESD protection devices market.

Various notable players in the market includes Murata Manufacturing, Texas Instruments Incorporated, STMicroelectronics N.V., ON Semiconductor Corp., Bourns Inc., Infineon Technologies, Semtech Corp., Nexperia, ProTek Devices and Littlefuse Inc. among others.
