Mordor Intelligence’s automated test equipment market is growing at a 6.82% CAGR, driven by advanced semiconductor testing and system-in-package adoption.
HYDERABAD, TELANGANA, INDIA, October 27, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — According to Mordor Intelligence, the automated test equipment market is projected to grow from USD 9.83 billion in 2026 to USD 13.67 billion by 2031, registering a CAGR of 6.82% during the forecast period (2026–2031). The market continues to expand as semiconductor manufacturers invest in advanced testing solutions to support shrinking technology nodes, artificial intelligence (AI) processors, automotive electronics, and increasingly complex semiconductor packaging. Growing demand for high-performance chips, electric vehicles, 5G infrastructure, and system-in-package designs is encouraging equipment manufacturers to develop more precise, automated, and data-driven testing platforms, supporting automated test equipment market growth across the global semiconductor industry.
Automated Test Equipment Market Key Growth Factors
Advanced Semiconductor Nodes Increase Demand for Precision Testing
The transition toward advanced semiconductor nodes, particularly below 7 nm, is increasing the need for automated test equipment capable of delivering high measurement accuracy, faster testing, and reliable performance validation. Semiconductor manufacturers are adopting advanced tester architectures, low-noise measurement systems, and machine-learning-based test optimization to improve production yields and reduce debugging time. The growing complexity of AI processors and high-performance computing chips is further strengthening demand for advanced semiconductor testing solutions.
Automotive Electrification Drives Specialized Testing Requirements
The increasing integration of semiconductors into electric vehicles, advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS), battery management systems, and powertrain electronics is creating new opportunities for automated test equipment providers. Silicon carbide (SiC) and gallium nitride (GaN) power devices require specialized high-voltage testing and thermal reliability validation. Automotive manufacturers are also prioritizing functional-safety testing to support dependable electronic systems, encouraging greater adoption of advanced testing platforms.
System-in-Package Designs Accelerate System-Level Testing
The growing adoption of system-in-package (SiP) architectures is increasing the complexity of semiconductor testing as multiple chips and functional components are integrated into compact packages. System-level testing solutions enable manufacturers to evaluate device performance under operating conditions and identify faults that may not be detected through conventional parametric testing. Increasing demand for AI accelerators, advanced memory, and high-performance consumer electronics is supporting investments in system-level testers and burn-in equipment.
Ashish Gautam, Senior Research Manager at Mordor Intelligence, says, “As semiconductor architectures become more advanced and electronic systems increasingly depend on reliable chip performance, dependable market intelligence requires transparent sourcing, consistent validation, and balanced analysis. Mordor Intelligence applies a structured research methodology to provide decision-makers with reliable insights into technology adoption, competitive dynamics, and long-term opportunities in the automated test equipment market.”
