Linear LED Driver Market

Linear LED Driver Market: Introduction

• Linear LED drivers are common linear regulators in integrated circuits (ICs) that require only a rectified voltage source; for instance, a bridge rectifier to rectify an alternating current (AC) voltage to generate a driving voltage
• Simple linear driver circuits have gained significant traction in the field of LED lighting due to their small size and low cost
• Linear LED drivers are inherently low frequency content; consequently, eliminating the need for reactive (inductive and / or capacitive) input EMC / EMI filter elements
• The linear LED driver does not use electrolytic capacitors. Electrolytic capacitors store enough energy to operate the circuit when no line voltage power is available, thereby extending the life of the LED driver and eliminating flicker issues.
• Technological advances in lighting components have enabled the development and deployment of more energy-efficient and higher performance alternatives to existing tungsten and incandescent bulbs and technologies
• Linear LED drivers are utilized in automotive headlight, battery charger, keyboard, Mouse, smart speaker, medical UV, smart home appliances, DJ equipment, stage lighting and gaming accessories, etc.

Rising Demand for Linear LED Driver in Automotive Industry 

• Based on end-use industry, the market can be segmented into automotive, consumer electronics, transportation, healthcare, aerospace and defense, pharmaceutical, industrial, and others
• The automotive segment of the global Linear LED Driver market is estimated to expand at a rapid pace during the forecast period due to an increase in use of linear LED driver for automotive interior and exterior LED lighting applications
• Increasing replacement of conventional or traditional lighting technologies, such as halogen lights with LED lights, is a key factor further boosting the automotive segment of the linear LED driver market
• Linear LED drivers improve the lifespan of LED lights. Technological advances in LED driver design have made it possible to develop compact drivers that can be used in diverse lighting and applications
• Increasing usage of compact LEDs in dome lights, interior lighting, courtesy lights, vehicle headlights, and fast-acting taillights has significantly increased the demand for linear LED drivers
• Increasing initiatives to adopt alternatives to energy savings and the enactment of stringent government regulations on the installation of safety measures, including powerful headlights to avoid blindness and accidents for oncoming vehicles, are other factors propelling the global automotive LED driver market
• Increasing usage of linear LED drivers to improve vehicle aesthetics due to their compact size and low power consumption is also boosting the global market

Asia Pacific to Lead Global Linear LED Driver Market

• In terms of region, the global Linear LED Driver  market can be divided into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, South America, and Middle East & Africa
• Expansion of the automotive sector in Asia Pacific, lower LED lighting prices, improved living standards of consumers, and well-established automobile industry in China are driving the market in Asia Pacific
• Initiatives to promote energy-efficient lighting by governments in Asia Pacific is another factor driving the market in the region. Innovation in technologies are expected to further propel the demand for linear LED driver.
• The linear LED driver market in Asia Pacific is expected to expand at a high growth rate due to the presence of major players and increased competition among them. The market in North America is likely to expand at a steady pace during the forecast period because of reduced competition in the market in the region.
