Posted by Mrudula Anil Karmarkar on May 9th, 2023

The global semiconductor memory market size is expected to reach USD 134.64 billion by 2027, registering a CAGR of 5.9% over the forecast period, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Growing adoption of semiconductor memory chips in healthcare applications is expected to drive the market over the forecast period. The semiconductor SRAM memory chip is specifically designed for implantable medical applications, such as Bio-sensor(s) or bio transducers and portable Patient Vital Signs Monitor. This chip consumes less power, facilitates more accurate clinical diagnoses, and can be optimized for ultra-low-power operation.

The semiconductor memory chip is extensively used in industrial applications, including automated and smart systems, which perform assembly, manufacturing, and management operations at an increased speed as compared to an individual. Growing adoption of Internet of Things (IoT) in smart devices and cameras is expected to propel the demand for non-volatile memory products in the market. Moreover, technological development in industrial applications with big data and Artificial Intelligence (AI) is anticipated to increase the demand for faster processing and high information storage requirements. This, in turn, will increase the adoption of memory chips, thereby supporting market growth.

Besides, rising integration of electronic components in automobiles and improvement in automotive systems are expected to create growth opportunities for DRAM semiconductor memory industry players. Additionally, increased penetration of high-tech gadgets in Asia Pacific is contributing substantially to the market growth. The region also has a benefit in the semiconductor industry over North America owing to the availability of components and raw materials at a low price.

The market is expected to witness an increase in demand at the global level owing to the growing use of semiconductor components in various industries, such as automotive, consumer electronics, and IT, and telecom. Semiconductor memory is an electronic device used as a computer memory in which digital information is maintained by using IC (Integrated Circuit) technology. Moreover, these memories are classified on the basis of the type of data storage and data access, such as volatile RAM (Random Access Memory) and non-volatile ROM (Read Only Memory).

Rapid development in the form of digitalization and automation in the electronics industry, along with the use of memory-based elements in technologically advanced products, such as smartphones, wearables devices, and electronic gadgets, is propelling the market growth across the globe. Increasing usage of semiconductor devices in the automobile and electronics systems, such as Flash ROM and DRAM, is a key factor driving the demand for integrated gadgets and chips. DRAM and Flash ROM used in lighting control and ADAS systems offer increased speed and better connectivity to vehicle systems.

Moreover, integration of Internet of Things (IoT) into the consumer electronics, automotive, and industrial applications, along with the rising acceptance of the IoT in all these industries, is driving the overall market across the globe. These technologies include smart and automated systems that executive management and manufacturing operations more rapidly, thereby improving productivity and reducing cost.  Besides, in recent years, multiple companies are utilizing semiconductor memory chips with high storage capabilities in order to resolve the data center complexities, thereby increasing market growth.

Semiconductor Memory Market Report Highlights

  • By type, the DRAM segment accounted for the largest market share in 2019 owing to increasing usage of computing capabilities with AI in smartphones, smart watches, and wearable devices, which, in turn, increases the demand for DRAM
  • Based on application, the consumer electronics segment held the largest market share in 2019 owing to rising demand for semiconductor memory chips due to adoption of wearable devices in hospitality services and healthcare applications, such as chronic disease management, fitness monitoring, and heart care monitoring
  • New product development and expansion remain the key strategies among the leading manufacturers in the market.

On the other hand, factors such as high cost of manufacturing, increasing cost associated with new plant constructions and existing fabrication plants, and a significant amount of capital investment might pose a challenge to the global industry over the forecast years. However, semiconductor memory manufacturers are expected to carry out operational development programs for existing semiconductor memory products that can achieve targets for Return on Investment (ROI) and overcome these challenges. Moreover, semiconductor memory companies have been focusing on outsourcing a significant part of their chip production to manufacturing firms to minimize the overall net capital expenditure.

In addition, the COVID-19 pandemic is anticipated to negatively impact the overall market growth over the next few years owing to restrictions over the trade of electronics globally. Various countries including Italy, Germany, France, U.S., South Korea, and Japan are severely disrupted in the short term. Thus, semiconductors and electronics are expected to incur major declines in the first half of 2020 due to a decline in trade constraints. However, it is expected that the trade of electronics should return to normal levels by the end of the second quarter of 2020.
