Temperature sensors play a crucial role in the automotive industry, measuring temperatures at various points within vehicles. They typically utilize thermistors (thermally sensitive resistors), thermocouples, resistance temperature detectors (RTDs), or infrared devices. These sensors are employed in numerous automotive applications. Additionally, temperature and humidity sensors are integrated into HVAC systems to prevent windshield fogging and facilitate energy management.
Automotive manufacturers worldwide are increasingly prioritizing vehicle electrification. With a demand for faster charging and extended range on a single charge, the electrical and electronic circuits within vehicles must handle high power efficiently. This necessitates robust thermal management solutions to ensure the continuous operation of safety-critical applications, which is anticipated to have a positive effect on the automotive temperature sensors market. Moreover, the rising adoption of autonomous vehicles is expected to further drive the market's growth, as these vehicles rely on sensors like coolant temperature sensors or intake air temperature sensors.
A key trend in sensor development is the design of portable and miniaturized sensors, offering wide-ranging benefits such as simplified measurement systems, cost-effective fabrication, and remote sensing capabilities. Smaller sensors can be placed closer to heat sources, enabling the monitoring of temperature peaks within thermal interface material layers found in power electronics, microprocessors, or batteries. With a size of less than 1.0 mm x 0.6 mm and a low height of 50 µm, these sensors can be positioned even in the smallest spaces available. This reduction in thermal diffusion lengths leads to significantly faster temperature detection. Additionally, their high measuring accuracy of ±0.1 °C, combined with low thermal mass, enables rapid and precise temperature sensing.
Miniaturization is gaining significance across various sectors, including wearables, automotive, and manufacturing. In response, numerous market players are focusing on miniaturizing sensors. For instance, in June 2022, YAGEO Nexensos (Germany) and accensors (Germany) announced plans to collaborate on developing solutions to support the miniaturization trend. Through this collaboration, the companies aim to integrate precise temperature sensor elements into highly integrable film sensor elements and application-specific film sensors.
The growing trend of smart living and the proliferation of connected devices is expected to drive the demand for temperature sensors in wearable devices. Furthermore, the rising awareness of fitness and health across all age groups has been a key factor propelling the growth of the wearable temperature sensors market. Additionally, the increasing trend toward remote care monitoring is fueling the demand for temperature sensors integrated into wearable devices.
