According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global IoT Microcontroller (MCU) market size was valued at US$ 4404 million in 2024 and is forecast to a readjusted size of USD 9093 million by 2031 with a CAGR of 11.0% during review period.
A microcontroller (MCU for microcontroller unit) is a small computer on a single metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) integrated circuit chip. In modern terminology, it is similar to, but less sophisticated than, a system on a chip (SoC); a SoC may include a microcontroller as one of its components. A microcontroller contains one or more CPUs (processor cores) along with memory and programmable input/output peripherals. Program memory in the form of ferroelectric RAM, NOR flash or OTP ROM is also often included on chip, as well as a small amount of RAM. Microcontrollers are designed for embedded applications, in contrast to the microprocessors used in personal computers or other general purpose applications consisting of various discrete chips. At present, microcontroller is employed substantially across many automated Internet of Things products and devices such as power tools, remote controls, office machines, automobile engine controls, and medical devices.
The IoT (Internet of Things) Microcontroller (MCU) market is rapidly evolving, driven by the increasing need for connected devices across a wide range of industries, from consumer electronics to industrial automation and healthcare. MCUs are integral to IoT devices, as they control, process data, and manage communication between various sensors and actuators. The market for IoT MCUs has experienced significant growth due to several trends in technology and consumer demand.
The number of connected devices is expected to grow exponentially, from billions today to potentially trillions in the coming years. This growth is pushing the demand for low-cost, energy-efficient, and high-performance MCUs that can handle the processing and communication needs of IoT devices.
IoT MCUs are increasingly being developed to support multiple connectivity standards, including Wi-Fi, Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), Zigbee, LoRa, NB-IoT, and 5G. This adaptability allows IoT devices to seamlessly connect to various networks and communication platforms, driving demand for advanced MCUs that can handle diverse protocols.
One of the key trends in the IoT MCU market is the development of ultra-low-power MCUs. As many IoT devices run on battery power or energy-harvesting technologies, reducing power consumption is crucial. Manufacturers are focusing on developing MCUs with low sleep modes, low operating voltages, and optimized energy profiles to extend the lifespan of IoT devices, especially in remote or difficult-to-access applications.
IoT MCUs are being integrated with energy harvesting technologies (e.g., solar, vibration, or thermal energy) to power sensors and devices without the need for batteries, reducing maintenance costs and improving sustainability.
IoT devices are increasingly adopting edge computing capabilities, where data is processed locally on the device (or at the “edge” of the network) rather than being sent to a central cloud server. This reduces latency, bandwidth consumption, and the need for constant cloud communication. MCUs with higher processing power and embedded machine learning (ML) capabilities are in demand for local data processing and decision-making.
The demand for real-time data processing is increasing in applications like industrial automation, healthcare, and smart cities. MCUs that can handle high-speed data acquisition, sensor fusion, and real-time analysis are critical to these applications.
