Technology trends in the Connectivity & Peripherals sector

The Connectivity & Peripherals sector thrives on continuous innovation, where advancements in existing technologies drive smarter, faster, and more efficient solutions.New Bluetooth standards enable additional functionality, Wi-Fi becomes faster and more secure, sensors grow smaller and smarter, and memory solutions offer higher storage density while consuming less energy.

Key trends in connectivity and sensor technology

In connectivity, artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly being integrated into network management. Simultaneously, edge computing functions are being added to systems, reducing latency and optimising bandwidth usage. The rapid adoption of 5G network technologies is driving growth in mobile communications, data processing, autonomous and connected vehicles, the Internet of Things (IoT), and smart industries.

In sensor technology, the growing number of IoT applications is a key driver. These applications require compact sensors that can be easily integrated into a wide variety of devices and conserve battery life through low energy consumption. Sensors also play a pivotal role in healthcare and fitness trackers. Wearable health devices and medical implants enable real-time monitoring of vital signs and early detection of health issues.

EBV - Connectivity - Trends - Brief (LC)

Technology trends in brief

Higher security requirements

The security of embedded systems is currently one of the most critical topics. Ensuring long-term maintenance and management of systems already on the market is essential to keep them secure throughout their lifecycle. This requires robust system connectivity, a reliable foundation of trust, and highly secure key storage with advanced crypto processing.

Increased memory requirements

MCUs are increasingly being programmed at higher levels, with development shifting toward the use of more complex communication stacks. These trends are driving higher memory requirements. Additionally, the ability to maintain and update systems over the air is becoming a standard expectation. Over-the-air (OTA) updates require at least double the available memory capacity.

Environmental sensors

The advanced capabilities of sensor fusion and AI-based processing are enabling the measurement of an increasing number of physical variables and environmental data. This results in a broader database that supports better decision-making, greater operational efficiency, predictive maintenance, and an enhanced user experience. The demand for wireless sensor networks is particularly growing as they are key to realising intelligent infrastructures.
