(MENAFN- GlobeNewsWire - Nasdaq) Digital Potentiometers Market growth driven by increasing demand for precise electronic signal control in consumer electronics and industrial automation.

Austin, Aug. 11, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Digital Potentiometer Market Size & Growth Insights:

According to the SNS Insider,“The Digital Potentiometer Market Size was valued at USD 1.37 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach USD 2.96 billion by 2032 and grow at a CAGR of 10.12% over the forecast period of 2025-2032.”

Rising Adoption of Compact and Programmable Components Drives Digital Potentiometer Market Growth

Strong traction in the digital potentiometer market is due to increased demand for smaller programmable electronics from consumer as well as industrial applications. As devices continue to shrink and require more accuracy, digital potentiometers are now being used to complement (and in many applications, replace) analog mechanical systems due to their ability to be programmed, higher reliability and non-volatility. These components are now integral to various applications such as IoT modules, smartphones, medical wearables, automotive infotainment, and smart appliances. The trend of miniaturization and intellectualization in electronics very well matched by the fact that this capability could aid automated tuning and precise signal control. Significantly, since 2020 over 65% of device manufacturers turned to digital replacements to meet the performance and integration demands of compact applications.
