PCB Design Software Market Expected to Hit CAGR of 12.9% in 2016-2026
February 15, 2017 | SAT Press ReleasesEstimated reading time: 2 minutes
Future Market Insights delivers key insights on the global PCB design software market in a new report titled “PCB Design Software Market: Global Industry Analysis and Opportunity Assessment, 2016–2026.” The global PCB design software market is anticipated to grow from US$1.4 billion in 2016 to $4.7 billion by 2026, registering a CAGR of 12.9% in terms of revenue during the forecast period (2016-2026). In this report, the global PCB design software market is tracked in terms of value, and is calibrated to obtain the market revenue estimates.
PCB design software is used by engineers for designing the printed circuit board on a device, using various features that aim to address issues an engineer faces such as those related to signal and power integrity, while designing a PCB and ease the overall designing process. PCB design software is integrated with other related software such as PLM, which helps engineers to better understand designs and layouts of PCBs.
Need to ease the design process and growing complexity of circuits are factors anticipated to drive growth of the global PCB design software market over the forecast period. Growth in the end-user industries are further expected to push the demand for global PCB design software market during the forecast period. However, rapid introduction of new technologies and pirated software are major challenges expected to be faced by market players in the global PCB design software market during the forecast period.

The New Chapter: Attracting ‘Generation Green’
03/28/2024 | Hannah Grace & Paige Fiet -- Column: The New ChapterIn the electronics industry, we talk a lot about sustainability in terms of recruitment and retention of the next generation of engineers. But what if the key to sustaining the industry long into the future is through the more common definition of the word? What if, for just a moment, we think about sustainability in terms of the environment and what we as an industry are doing to care for it? Because, if you weren’t aware, Gen Z cares tremendously about the environment and the actions companies are taking to preserve it. Without Gen Z joining the electronics industry’s workforce, we won’t be able to sustain the industry for much longer.
