Report Description

The semiconductor IP market was estimated at USD 9.30 billion in 2025 and is projected to reach USD 18.64 billion by 2032, expanding at a CAGR of 10.2% from 2026 to 2032.

Market growth is being fueled by the increasing need for sophisticated chip architectures capable of supporting artificial intelligence, high-performance computing, cloud infrastructure, and next-generation connectivity technologies. As semiconductor development costs continue to rise and design cycles become more demanding, chipmakers are increasingly leveraging pre-validated IP solutions to accelerate innovation, reduce engineering complexity, and improve development productivity. Growing investments in custom silicon, AI-enabled processors, chiplet-based designs, and software-defined systems are further strengthening demand for semiconductor IP across a wide range of industries, including consumer electronics, automotive, telecommunications, industrial automation, and data centers. In addition, advancements in heterogeneous computing, advanced packaging technologies, and emerging RISC-V ecosystems are creating new monetization opportunities for IP providers and reshaping the competitive landscape of the semiconductor industry.

“Security IP is expected to emerge as the fastest-growing design IP segment through 2032”

By design IP, the security IP segment is expected to register the fastest growth during the forecast period. This segment includes root-of-trust solutions, cryptographic engines, secure boot technologies, trusted execution environments, physically unclonable functions, and post-quantum cryptography blocks. Rising frequency of cyberattacks, growing adoption of connected devices, expansion of software-defined vehicles, and scaling of cloud-based AI infrastructure are driving demand for hardware-level security solutions. As security transitions from an optional feature to a core design requirement, security IP providers are experiencing significant growth opportunities across automotive, industrial, consumer electronics, and data center applications.

“The hard IP segment is expected to register a higher growth rate than the soft IP segment through 2032”

Based on IP core type, the hard IP segment is projected to witness a higher CAGR than the soft IP segment during the forecast period. Hard IP encompasses process-specific physical implementations such as SerDes PHYs, PCIe PHYs, DDR PHYs, HBM PHYs, RF blocks, and analog circuits. Growing adoption of advanced process nodes, high-bandwidth memory architectures, AI accelerators, and high-speed interconnect technologies is fueling demand for highly optimized physical IP. As semiconductor companies place greater emphasis on power efficiency, performance optimization, and faster time-to-market, hard IP solutions are becoming increasingly critical for next-generation chip development.

“By architecture type, the RISC-V architecture segment is expected to exhibit the fastest growth during the forecast period.”

RISC-V architecture is expected to emerge as the fastest-growing architecture type segment during the forecast period. Its open and extensible instruction set enables semiconductor companies to develop customized processors without traditional licensing constraints. Growing interest in sovereign semiconductor development, industrial automation, automotive electronics, AI accelerators, and embedded systems is accelerating the adoption of RISC-V-based processor cores. Increasing ecosystem support from IP vendors, software developers, and semiconductor manufacturers is further driving commercialization across multiple end markets.
