Market Introduction


The global computer on module market is expected to reach USD 1,789.3 Million by 2027. The global computer on module market is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 5.7% over the forecast period and was valued at USD 1,217.4 Million in 2020.


Computer on module was built on the concept of system on chip and system in package. The computer on module (CoM) also known as System on Module (SoM), consists of the whole embedded computer system assembled on a single chip. The layout of a computer on module includes microprocessor with RAM, input/output controllers and all different capabilities, required to build a computer. Computer on module provides various benefits including easy upgradation of CPU components, helps customers with reduced time-to-market of new products, reduced development time, and hence improved bargaining power.

Computer on module market is a moderately fragmented, with the presence of international and local players across various regions. This results in moderate competition in the market. Market players are continuously focusing on new product development in order to serve the specific needs of their clients.


Growth Influencers


Increasing industrial automation to drive the market growth


One of the most important factors attributed to the growth in demand for computer on module, is increased trend of industrial automation in the past few years. Introduction of robotics, Programmable Logic Controller (PLC), Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) and various other new technologies have resulted in increased automation of the industries. Industrial automation also results in reducing the overall cost of manufacturing through increased productivity and efficiency. Due to these factors industrial automation is growing at a huge pace across various countries, globally.


Covid-19 resulted in slowdown of computer on module market


Covid-19 pandemic has resulted in temporary shutdown of production and manufacturing activities across the globe. This in turn has resulted in factory closures, supply chain disruption, and a collapse in demand of goods across various industries. Additionally, increased trade barriers in various countries have further resulted in slowdown of manufacturing activities, which is anticipated to curtail the demand for computer of module, to a great extent.
