Article By : ESD Alliance

The electronic system design (ESD) industry revenue increased by 12.1% YoY to $3.54 billion in Q1 2022, according to the ESD Alliance.

The electronic system design (ESD) industry revenue increased by 12.1% from $3.157 billion in the first quarter of 2021 (Q1 2021) to $3.54 billion in the first quarter of this year (Q1 2022), according to the latest Electronic Design Market Data (EDMD) report from the ESD Alliance, a SEMI Technology Community. The four-quarter moving average, which compares the most recent four quarters to the prior four, rose 14.5%.

“The industry continued to report double-digit year-over-year revenue growth in Q1 2022, with quarterly revenue reaching a record $3,540.5 million,” said Walden C. Rhines, Executive Sponsor of the SEMI Electronic Design Market Data report. “Product categories Computer-Aided Engineering, Printed Circuit Board and Multi-Chip Module, Semiconductor Intellectual Property, and Services recorded growth for the quarter. Geographically, the Americas, Japan, and Asia Pacific (APAC) all reported revenue growth.”

The companies tracked in the EDMD report employed 51,328 people globally in Q1 2022, a 4.7% increase over the Q1 2021 headcount of 49,024 and up 0.2% compared to Q4 2021.

The quarterly EDMD report contains detailed revenue information with the following category and geographic breakdowns.
