The low cost of DRAM technology, its fast speed, high density, and low rate of power consumption, combined with DRAM's compatibility with major electronic equipment, are some of the key drivers aiding the dynamic random access memory (DRAM) market growth.
Shifting consumer preferences toward electronic devices that offer high speed, reliability, and greater efficiency are likely to further enhance the prospects for the DRAM market during the forecast period. These devices require memory solutions that can keep pace with evolving performance needs while maintaining affordability, and characteristics well aligned with DRAM's capabilities.
The increasing adoption of electronic devices across various end-use sectors, including healthcare, information technology and telecommunications, and media and entertainment, has further aided the market for dynamic random-access memory (DRAM). Additionally, the expanding availability of high-speed internet access, such as fifth-generation (5G) wireless technology networks, is further broadening the demand for DRAM.
Progressive product releases aimed at enhancing end users' working capabilities are poised to be crucial trends in the DRAM market. The increasing adoption of advanced technologies like artificial intelligence and machine learning is likely to revolutionise the electronics industry by facilitating higher data transmission speeds and easier connectivity, further contributing to the market expansion.
Increasing development of DRAM solutions by key players such as Micron Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ: MU) and Samsung Electronics is aiding the market. For instance, in December 2022, Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. (KRX: 005930) announced the development of its 16-gigabit (Gb) DDR5 DRAM built using the industry’s first 12-nanometer (nm) process technology. Samsung also completed a product evaluation confirming compatibility with AMD.
Leveraging the latest DDR5 standard, Samsung's 12nm DRAM can enable speeds of up to 7.2 gigabits per second (Gbps). This level of performance allows for processing two 30 gigabytes (GB) ultra-high definition movies within one second. The company offers its products through online platforms, such as Amazon.com Inc (NYSE: AMZN), and others.
