The global Bluetooth IC market was valued at USD 3,718.6 million in 2021 and is expected to reach USD 28.2 billion by 2030, with a CAGR rate of 14.30% during 2022–2030.
Bluetooth IC is a standardized protocol for wirelessly exchanging data across a network of communication devices in communications systems. In a nutshell, it is a security approach that is best suited for wireless communication between electrical equipment over short distances while consuming little power and costing little money. The technology is one of the most extensively utilized low-power wireless technologies on the market, and it is well regarded by both wireless device and equipment manufacturers and customers. Bluetooth technology has come a long way in the last two decades, and it is currently Bluetooth version 5. Nodes in a wireless network can interact with one another by acting as transmitters for other nodes, resulting in a more reliable link between nodes. As a result, there is a greater demand for Bluetooth integrated circuits in wireless devices. Consumers' interest in smart wearables has grown in recent years, resulting in an increase in demand for the global Bluetooth IC market. Furthermore, the shrinkage of integrated circuits (ICs) is expected to bring new opportunities in global business. In contrast, the incorporation of intellectual property (IP) blocks for system-on-a-chip (SOC) layout and the ongoing growth of communications technologies may represent a danger to market expansion.
This study on the global Bluetooth IC market provides detailed information on industry trends, market dynamics, market size, competitive landscape, and growth opportunities. This research report categorizes the global Bluetooth IC market by type, application, and region/country.

COVID-19 Analysis
COVID-19 has had a substantial impact on the sector's fundamentals, including customer behaviour, business revenues, and a variety of corporate activities. Many companies' future prospects are uncertain, and some may not survive the crisis. Depending on prospective government initiatives and other difficult-to-predict circumstances, a variety of recovery scenarios are feasible. Semiconductor businesses moved quickly to protect employees, secure supply chains, and address other important concerns in the months following the coronavirus's outbreak. Even though the situation remains critical, and many governments continue to impose physical-distance limitations, semiconductor executives are now looking forward to the time when the pandemic subsides and the new normal begins. They are planning tactics for reinventing and changing their business models in anticipation of that moment. Every component of the company model, including product portfolio composition, capital expenditures (capex), R&D strategy, demand predictions, supply-chain footprints, production decisions, and mergers and acquisitions alternatives, could change (M&A). However, with so much uncertainty in the future, semiconductor businesses may struggle to make strategic decisions.
The COVID-19 outbreak has affected millions of people across the globe and has negatively impacted the global economy, causing global supply systems to collapse. Factory shutdowns throughout the world have impacted the automotive industry's supply chains. The continuous spread of COVID-19 in the first quarter of 2020 and beyond has decreased the global GDP growth and trade volumes, lowering commodities prices. Supply chain disruptions have further created cash flow implications across the extended supply chain. SMEs are currently struggling for profitability, and the companies which have low cash reserves have become unstable. However, large-scale manufacturers still appear to be in good financial conditions, and they are getting the supply chain to return to the normal condition slowly. A decline in cash inflow resulted from the drop in demand, and most companies require high working capital to remain in sync. Additionally, until the economic activities stabilize, cash flow in the global market is expected to be struggling in the next few months due to the declining availability of components for Bluetooth products. Thus, continued cash flow tightening is likely to have little impact on the market further.
Market Dynamics
Bluetooth is a worldwide wireless technology that uses the IEEE 802.15.1 standard to provide easy, secure, and point-to-point connection. Bluetooth is developing personal area networks as an open standard to promote communication and collaboration across various devices and businesses (PANs). Technology is offering new possibilities for products and, undoubtedly, changing customer behaviour. Bluetooth enables a worldwide vision of connecting items ranging from mobile phones to autos, medical equipment to industrial facilities, wearables to consumer gadgets, and fulfilment centres. The Bluetooth IC market is driven by the factors such as increasing adoption of smart wearables, and the rising demand for specialized bluetooth technology for different needs. Furthermore, the increasing advantages of BLE over bluetooth classic technology, LE audio enhancing the performance and expansion of the market, and miniaturization of IC’s are providing growth opportunities to the market.
Drivers
In an age of smartwatches, smartphones, and smart televisions, technical developments in digital innovation have brought us to smart wearables. The use of digital gadgets worn by patients to monitor their health has become increasingly prevalent, particularly during a crisis such as the worldwide pandemic. Wearable gadgets such as smartwatches and fitness trackers are the most obvious use of IoT technology. In the consumer electronics market, wearables have exceeded smartphones in popularity. These devices provide unique ways to complete basic chores, such as checking messages and measuring physical activity. The current epidemic has increased the use of smart wearables for tracking and analysing health data. The wearable sector has grown dramatically in response to the increasing need for health evaluations at any given time. IoT is increasingly powering wearables in health care. The Internet of Health Things (IoHT) refers to the interconnection of medical equipment and applications with healthcare information technology. FitBits, Garmin Forerunners, and Apple Watches are some of the popular smart wearables that measure the wearer's health data such as heart rate, step count, sleep pattern, respiration rate, blood pressure, and so on. These devices, which were designed purely for convenience, now have a large following.
Opportunity
In electrical devices, miniaturization entails packing more transistor nodes onto a smaller integrated circuit (IC). The IC is subsequently interfaced within its intended system or device, allowing the system to perform the necessary function once complete. Technology is becoming smaller while becoming more powerful. Furthermore, device shrinking corresponds to Gordon Moore's 1965 forecast that "cramming more components into integrated circuits [would] result in such miracles as home computers, automated controls for autos, and personal portable communications devices." His forecast came true, ushering in an age of technology that ranged from portable computers, cellphones, and new medical equipment to the Internet of Things and 5G wireless devices, as well as AR/VR and AI, all of which were enabled by smaller yet more powerful computing systems.
