Scope of Global Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) Market Report- 

A field-programmable gate array is an integrated circuit designed to be configured by the customer or designer after production, hence the term ""field-programmable."" FPGA configurations are typically specified using a hardware description language (HDL), like that used for application-specific integrated circuits (ASIC). Circuit diagrams were previously used to specify configurations, but this is becoming rarer with the advent of electronic design automation tools. The tech industry is adopting FPGAs for machine learning and deep learning. In the last decade, Microsoft's research demonstrated one of the first use cases of artificial intelligence (AI) on FPGAs as part of the company's efforts to accelerate web searches. FPGAs provide a combination of programmability, speed, and flexibility to deliver performance without the high cost and complexity of developing custom application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs). 

The COVID-19 pandemic has shown a positive impact on the growth of the global field-programmable gate array market. The growing demand for high-performance detection devices in hospitals has encouraged developers to create infection detection systems based on FPGAs. For example, ALDEC developed a system to detect COVID-19 lung infections. The device incorporates a field-programmable gate array that works with the TySOM embedded control board. Ongoing research and development and innovations in the healthcare sector will aid in market expansion in the coming years.

Increasing Growth of Artificial Intelligence (AI), Rising Adoption of Smartphones and Tablets, and Growing Demand for Static Random-Access Memory (SRAM) Are Some of The Major Factors Driving the Growth of The Global Field-Programmable Gate Array Market 

One of the major factors for the growth of the field-programmable gate array market is the increasing growth of artificial intelligence (AI). Increasing access to AI and deep learning technologies along with increasing demand for high-performance computing worldwide is boosting the industry. After manufacturing, field programmable gate arrays, i.e., semiconductor systems, can be programmed and reprogrammed to meet desired performance and application requirements. Because of these characteristics, it is more favorable than competing technologies, such as application-specific standard products (ASSPs) and complex programmable logic devices (CPLDs). FPGA devices have gained popularity in artificial intelligence (AI) workstations, edge AI devices, and high-performance computing (HPC) applications due to their cost efficiency, high performance, and energy efficiency. Therefore, augmenting demand for artificial intelligence is intensifying the growth of field-programmable gate array market worldwide. 

In addition, the rising adoption of smartphones and tablets is boosting the growth of the field-programmable gate array market. Many FPGAs are used for many applications in smartphones, such as performance optimization. Thus, they play an important role in fulfilling the essential function of smartphones, which includes the cellular transmission of content, including voice and text. Signal transmission requires the ability of the FPGA to transmit data efficiently. Hence, the demand for smartphones will drive the market for FPGAs globally. Vendors are constantly involved in bringing out new and advanced FPGA ICs to meet the needs of smartphone applications. For instance, according to scientists' research published in June 2018; the number of smartphone users in the world reached 2.5 billion, which is 33% of the world's population. Thus, the proliferation of smartphones, tablets, and IoT devices will encourage FPGA manufacturers to develop high-performance FPGAs that meet the requirements of smartphone and tablet manufacturers in the coming years. 

Moreover, the growing demand for static random-access memory (SRAM) is also supplementing the field-programmable gate array market growth. The widespread use of SRAM-based field programmable gate arrays in military and aerospace applications, telecommunications and wireless communication networks, and consumer products is driving the segment. However, anti-fuse FPGAs are more reliable than SRAM-based arrays, especially in radiation-prone environments. Owing to their faster boot time and better reliability, the anti-fuse segment is projected to expand significantly during the forecast period. 

However, hidden bugs make FPGAs vulnerable to security attacks associated with field-programmable gate arrays, which may hinder the growth of the global field-programmable gate array market. Despite that, developments in 5G networking infrastructure and expanding the IT and telecommunication sectors may create more opportunities in the global field-programmable gate array market.
