Monolithic Microwave Integrated Circuit Market Size, Share, Opportunities, and Trends by Material (Gallium Arsenide, Silicon-Germanium, Gallium Nitride, Others), by Technology (HEMT, MeSFET, HBT, MoS), by End-User Industry (Consumer Electronics, Automotive, Communication, Aerospace and Defense, Others), and by Geography - Forecasts from 2025 to 2030

The Monolithic Microwave Integrated Circuit Market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 11.96% through 2022 to 2030.

Monolithic Microwave Integrated Circuits (MMIC) are circuits that operate at microwave frequencies (300 MHz to 300 GHz). They are extremely tiny and can be mass-produced on a big scale. MMICs have several applications, including microwave mixing, power, low-noise amplification, and high-frequency switching. They are now a popular alternative for high-frequency applications because of benefits such as small size, low cost, and good performance.

Advanced semiconductor technology is critical in the evolution of RF and microwave applications for 5G and satellite communications (SATCOM), where the next generation of systems is going towards millimeter-wave (mmWave) frequencies. Increasing bandwidth requirements across various industries increased digitalization globally through an increase in wireless communication applications, and the evolution and installation of 5G networks will drive the market over the projection period.

Market Trends:

• Gallium-Based Materials Address Silicon Shortages: With increasing demand and limited supply of silicon wafers, researchers and electronics manufacturers are exploring alternatives like gallium nitride (GaN) and gallium arsenide (GaAs) to complement or replace silicon in the electronics industry. For example, OMMIC's CGY2175AUH/C1 is a high-performance GaAs MMIC integrating a 6-bit phase shifter, 6-bit attenuator, and T/R switch for 4.5 to 6.5 GHz applications. Built using OMMIC's 0.18 µm PHEMT technology, this C-band 3-port core chip features an on-chip series-to-parallel converter, reducing bond pads and simplifying operation.
• MMICs Enhance Satellite Communication: Monolithic Microwave Integrated Circuits (MMICs) are increasingly vital in aerospace for optimizing size, weight, and power (SWaP). Their cost-effectiveness and precision make them ideal for signal processing in aerospace applications, particularly as global space programs expand. For instance, MMICs developed by India's DRDO were used in radar imaging modules aboard ISRO's EOS04 satellite, launched in February 2022.
• Asia-Pacific Drives Gallium-Based Innovations: The Asia-Pacific region, led by major economies like China, Japan, India, and South Korea, alongside fast-growing ASEAN nations, is a hub for advanced electronics. In November 2024, India's DRDO Solid State Physics Laboratory achieved a breakthrough by developing indigenous processes for producing 4-inch Silicon Carbide (SiC) wafers and fabricating GaN High Electron Mobility Transistors (HEMTs) up to 150W and MMICs up to 40W for X-band applications. These advancements are poised to drive next-generation applications in defense, aerospace, and clean energy sectors.
