A microcontroller is used in the automotive sector to handle electrical control unit operations, control fail-safe systems, and automotive fault-tolerant systems, which alert the driver to errors that occur in the vehicle (accelerator, anti-lock brake interface, and broken lights). Fault tolerance would be highlighted if a car loses control on icy roads. In these circumstances, the sensor microcontroller detects the occurrence and triggers the anti-lock braking upon the car operator using the brakes. Therefore, microcontrollers are an essential component of the automotive sector, and the industry's rapid development supports the market's growth.

Growing use of advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS): ADAS systems are becoming increasingly common in modern vehicles, and these systems require MCUs to function properly. With the growing demand for safety features such as collision warning, lane departure warning, and adaptive cruise control, the demand for MCUs in ADAS systems is also increasing.

In 2022, Asia Pacific dominated the market by gaining a market share of 59.1%. The demand for microcontrollers in this industry is being driven by the rising demand for safety features, ADAS, and electric automobiles. In the Asia Pacific region, the industrial segment is also a prominent end user of microcontrollers, particularly in countries such as China and India, which have substantial and expanding manufacturing industries.
