Product Definition:
A surface acoustic wave (SAW) sensor is a device that uses the reflection or refraction of an acoustic wave to measure a physical quantity, such as pressure or temperature. SAW sensors are often used in industrial and scientific applications because they can be made very small and are relatively inexpensive.
Resonators:
Resonators are used in SAW sensors to improve the sensitivity of the device. The growth factor for this market is high demand from end-use industries such as food & beverage, water treatment, and pharmaceuticals.
Resonators are also known as cavity resonators or waveguides. They work on the principle of constructive interference of waves which is formed by vibrating membrane or glass plates connected by a flexible wire or tubing filled with liquid crystal material (LC).
Delay Lines:
The delay lines are used in SAW sensors to reduce the fluctuations in the output signal caused due to variations in the arrival time of signals. The variation in arrival time can be reduced by using a longer line length and more number of waveguides.
Advantages of Delay Line: It helps to reduce noise generated from sensor vibrations, electrical interference, and other sources that produce multiple waves with different frequencies along with delayed phases.
Application Insights:
The automotive application segment accounted for the largest revenue share in 2017 and is projected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. SAW sensors are used in various automotive applications such as engine control, infotainment systems, and safety & security systems. The growing need for advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) coupled with a rise in demand for noise reduction at vehicle interior frequencies is expected to drive the market growth over the coming years.
SAW technology provides solutions to enhance acoustic communication between components operating at different frequencies thus eliminating crosstalk that may result in signal degradation or loss during transmission. It also eliminates background noise by providing a clean signal path free from echoes thereby enabling reliable data transfer using low-frequency sound waves within electronic circuits or between two cavities separated by air gaps without using any interconnection wires or cables.
Regional Analysis:
North America dominated the global surface acoustic wave sensor market in terms of revenue with a share of over 35.0% in 2017. This is attributed to the presence of major industry players such as 3M and Honeywell International, Inc. Moreover, increasing demand for smart homes and consumer electronics are also driving the regional market growth.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for miniaturization in electronic devices: Surface acoustic wave sensors are finding increasing applications in portable and handheld devices due to their small size and low power consumption. This is driving the market growth for surface acoustic wave sensors.
- Rising demand from automotive industry: The automotive industry is one of the major adopters of surface acoustic wave sensors owing to their ability to detect various parameters such as engine speed, oil pressure, and fuel level accurately. This is propelling the market growth for surface acoustic wave sensors.
- Growing popularity of gesture recognition technology: Gesture recognition technology has gained immense popularity in recent years with its growing application in consumer electronics products such as smartphones, tablets, and laptops etc. Surface acoustic wave sensors are used extensively in gesture recognition systems owing to their high accuracy and sensitivity levels. This is fueling the market growth for surface acoustic wave sensors
