세계의 인쇄회로기판(PCB) 소프트웨어 시장 : 시장 점유율과 순위, 전체 판매 및 수요 예측(2025-2031년)

The global market for PCB Software was estimated to be worth US$ 1122 million in 2024 and is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 1958 million by 2031 with a CAGR of 8.4% during the forecast period 2025-2031.

PCB software (Printed Circuit Board Software) is a professional electronic design automation (EDA) tool specifically used for designing, simulating, and manufacturing printed circuit boards (PCBs). It serves electronic engineers and design teams, converting abstract circuit schematics into physical circuit board layouts that can be actually produced.

In terms of function, PCB software first allows users to import or draw circuit schematics to define the electrical connection relationship of components. Then enter the core PCB layout design stage: users can accurately place component packages (such as resistors, chips, and connectors) on virtual boards, and connect copper foil traces between component pins through interactive or automatic wiring functions. The software integrates design rule checking (DRC) to verify in real time whether parameters such as wiring spacing, line width, and via size meet the manufacturing process requirements, greatly reducing the risk of design errors.

High-end software also provides functions such as 3D modeling, signal integrity analysis, and thermal simulation to optimize high-speed circuit performance and reliability. After the design is completed, the software generates standard manufacturing files to seamlessly connect the production equipment and placement machines of the PCB factory.

As the core development platform for electronic hardware, PCB software has significantly improved design efficiency, accuracy and manufacturability, and is a key support tool for electronic product innovation in consumer electronics, industrial control, communication equipment, and even aerospace. Its development has directly promoted the miniaturization, high integration and high performance of electronic systems.

Global key players of PCB software include Siemens, Altium, Cadence, etc. Global top three manufacturers hold a share about 62%. Europe and North America are the major producing regions in the world, followed by Japan. In terms of application, the product is most widely used in telecommunication, followed by consumer electronics and computers.

Market Drivers

Rising Demand for Advanced Electronics: The growth of consumer electronics, automotive electronics, IoT devices, and telecommunications fuels the need for sophisticated PCB design software to handle complex multi-layer and high-density boards.

Increasing Adoption of Automation and AI: PCB software integrating automation, AI, and machine learning improves design accuracy, reduces errors, and accelerates development cycles, attracting more users.

Miniaturization and High-Speed Design Requirements: As devices become smaller and faster, PCB software must support advanced design features like signal integrity analysis, thermal management, and 3D visualization.

Growing Focus on Design for Manufacturability (DFM): Software that helps optimize PCB designs for easier manufacturing and testing reduces production costs and time-to-market.

Expansion in Emerging Markets: Rising electronics manufacturing in Asia-Pacific and other developing regions increases demand for affordable, localized PCB design solutions.

Market Challenges

High Software Cost and Licensing Models: Premium PCB software can be expensive, especially for small and medium enterprises, limiting adoption. Complex licensing and subscription models add to user hesitancy.

Steep Learning Curve and Skill Shortage: Advanced PCB design tools require specialized training and expertise, posing a challenge in hiring and retaining skilled designers.

Interoperability and Compatibility Issues: Integrating PCB software with other CAD, simulation, and manufacturing tools can be difficult, affecting workflow efficiency.

Rapid Technological Changes: Constantly evolving electronics technologies demand continuous software updates and feature additions, increasing development costs for providers.

Security Concerns: As PCB design involves sensitive intellectual property, concerns over data security and cloud-based software usage can hinder adoption.
