Cyclical variations in the industry are expected to restrain the semiconductor automated test equipment market size over the forecast period. The fluctuations in demand for semiconductors has led to a gap in the supply and demand, thus competitors experience unpredictable revenue that adversely affect their profitability.

With increasing demand for smartphones, the need for increased network capacity has proliferated extensively. Mobile devices offer capabilities such as high-resolution and touch screen displays, integration of high-quality cameras, and video and music playback. However, with improved capabilities and miniaturization of devices, issues such as shorter battery life have become more prevalent. Thus, testing the battery life during the design phase has gained significant importance.

Rise in consumer demand for more features and increased device integration has led to an increase in the number of RF ports. Therefore, designing an efficient ATE solution is a significant task for test engineers to overcome any design complexities. Moreover, complexity is outpacing productivity, as most of the semiconductor manufacturers are emphasizing on encapsulating more capabilities across their integrated circuit designs, owing to increasing consumer demand for improved functionality, bandwidth, and performance.
