Worldwide Interface IP Revenue Grew by 13.5% in 2016
IPnest has released the 9th version of the Interface IP Survey, ranking by protocol the IP vendors addressing the Interface segments: USB, PCI Express, (LP)DDRn, MIPI, Ethernet & SerDes, HDMI/DP and SATA. When the 1st version has been issued in 2009, the IP segment was weighting $225 million and the 2009 to 2008 growth was negative due to the 2008 economic crisis. The same segment has generated $550 million in 2016!
As you can see on the below chart, Synopsys is clearly leading with 49% market share, followed by Cadence and Avago, each company enjoying about 10% market share, Rambus and Faraday ending this top 5 with less than 5% market share. In fact, as the interface IP market is essentially made of up-front license, IPnest has not included royalty in this ranking. If we take royalty into account, Rambus share would grow up to the Cadence level.
