Semiconductor memory is a type of semiconductor device, which is designed to store digital data such as computer memory. Semiconductor memory is the main memory element of the microcomputer-based system and typically used to store data and programs. Semiconductor memory is typically referred to as MOS memory, where data is stored within metal-oxide-semiconductor memory cells on a silicon-integrated circuit memory chip. The use of semiconductor memory has increased over the years in mobile phones, cameras, and smart wearable devices. There are different memory technologies available including ROM, EPROM, RAM, flash memory, SDRAM, SRAM, and F-RAM.

Market Dynamics

The increasing demand for smartphones especially in Asia Pacific and North America is propelling growth of the semiconductor memory market significantly. For instance, according to the GSM Association, in 2018, the number of mobile subscribers was 5.1 billion, which accounted for 67% of the global population. Rapid digitalization and automation in the aforementioned regions have led to increased use of smartphones.

Moreover, increasing data center establishments in Asia Pacific and Europe is expected to propel the global semiconductor memory market. A data center is a facility dedicated to housing computer systems and related components such as telecommunications and storage systems. Data centers play a major role in telecommunications and storage systems where they host websites, manage e-mails, and handle instant messaging services. Furthermore, they support cloud storage applications. In the recent past, Europe and Asia Pacific have witnessed rapid establishments of data centers. For instance, in July 2020, Hiranandani Group inaugurated Asia’s largest data center in Navi Mumbai, India. As a result of this, the demand for semiconductor memory has increased significantly. Thus, these factors are expected to drive growth of the global semiconductor memory market during the forecast period.
