By Type
- The temperature sensors market is segmented into contact sensors and non-contact sensors.
- The contact sensors segment is expected to account for the larger share of 83.0% of the global temperature sensors market.
- This segment's large market share can be attributed to the growing adoption of contact sensors for detecting solids, liquids, or gases across a broad temperature range and the increasing utilization of these sensors in medical, pharmaceutical, and food processing applications for temperature monitoring and control.
- In response to this increasing utilization, market players are increasingly focusing on product development initiatives.
- For instance, in September 2024, TDK Corporation (Japan) launched its new NTCWS series of NTC thermistors featuring Au wire bonding.
- However, the non-contact sensors segment is projected to register a higher CAGR during the forecast period.
- This segment's growth can be attributed to the increasing adoption of non-contact sensors in industries like metals, minerals, paper, and plastics.
- These sensors offer benefits such as accurate temperature determination without physical contact and rapid response times.
By Output
- The temperature sensors market is segmented into analog and digital.
- The digital segment is expected to account for the larger share of 71.0% of the global temperature sensors market.
- The large share of this segment can be attributed to the increasing demand for temperature sensors with low power consumption and high accuracy and the rising utilization of digital sensors across scientific, medical, and aerospace applications, as well as in test and measurement equipment and industrial automation applications.
- Moreover, the digital segment is projected to register a higher CAGR during the forecast period.
By End-use Industry
- The temperature sensors market is segmented into chemicals, oil & gas, consumer electronics, energy & power, healthcare, automotive, metals and mining, food & beverages, aerospace & defense, and other end-use industries.
- The consumer electronics segment is expected to account for the largest share of the global temperature sensors market.
- The large market share of this segment can be attributed to the growing utilization of temperature sensors in consumer electronics to monitor and regulate the heat generated within devices, thereby preventing overheating and potential damage.
- For instance, in March 2024, Amazon.com, Inc. (U.S.) launched the 5th generation of Echo Dot in India, featuring enhanced audio, motion detection, temperature sensing capabilities, and tap gesture controls.
- However, the automotive segment is projected to register the highest CAGR of 7.0% during the forecast period.
- The growth of this segment can be attributed to stringent emission regulations for automobiles, the proliferation of electric and autonomous vehicles, and the increasing utilization of temperature sensors for monitoring engine coolant, air intake, and ambient air temperatures.
- In response to this increasing utilization, market players are increasingly focusing on product development initiatives.
- For instance, in January 2025, Microchip Technology Inc. (U.S.) launched the MCP998x family of 10 automotive-qualified remote temperature sensors.
Geographic analysis
Asia-Pacific
Largest shareIn 2025, Asia-Pacific is expected to account for the largest share of 38.0% of the temperature sensors market.
