Design IP Sales Grew 16.7% in 2020, Best Growth Rate Ever!
Design IP Sales Grew 16.7% in 2020, to reach $4.6B and this is the best growth since year 2000!
The main trends shaking the Design IP in 2020 are very positive for the Top 3 IP vendors, each of them growing more than the market and confirm the importance of the wired interface IP market, aligned with the data-centric application, hyperscalar, datacenter, networking or IA.
ARM is again a solid #1, with more than 40% market share, and, important to notice, 17.4% growth, slightly more than the IP market.
