Americas Flash Memory Market Size (2024 - 2029)

Americas Flash Memory Market Analysis

The Americas Flash Memory Market size is estimated at USD 19.90 billion in 2024, and is expected to reach USD 21.84 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 1.88% during the forecast period (2024-2029).

The market is expected to be driven by the region's rising need for hard disk drives and the demand to install flash memory in various manufactured consumer electronic products. Furthermore, the market will be driven by the demand for Flash memory devices such as NAND and NOR for a wide range of applications across multiple end-users such as communications, automotive, and others.

• Flash memory, also referred to as flash storage, is a type of nonvolatile memory that erases data in blocks and rewrites data at the byte level. It can be reprogrammed and wiped clean using electricity. Flash memories, such as SSDs, are gradually replacing hard disc drives (HDDs) due to their speed and dependability, driving the market in regions like the United States, Canada, and others.
• Rising demand for low-cost storage solutions across various consumer electronics applications will drive market growth. Furthermore, the comparative advantages of flash memory types such as NAND over alternatives and the increasing proliferation of 5G and IOT devices are expected to drive the market's overall growth.
• The North America region, dominated by the United States, is expected to undergo significant growth over the study period owing to factors such as the increasing proliferation of 5G and IOT devices, the growing Telecom industry, and the rising adoption of memory devices in consumer electronics. For example, Ericsson predicts that more than 195 million 5G subscriptions will be available in the United States by 2026, with 5G accounting for roughly 71.5% of the total U.S. mobile market by 2029. Such factors will drive memory device demand.
• Moreover, the region remains at the forefront of emerging technology adoption, such as IoT and AI, which is one factor driving the flash memory device market. According to CTA, 22 million homes in the United States already use IoT or smart technology to make life easier. The smart home market is expected to generate USD 23.5 billion in revenue by 2023. (23.2 billion USD in 2021).
• Flash memory storage has evolved into a critical component of smartphones. The demand for flash memory devices has been growing exponentially exponentially, primarily due to the average capacity of smartphones. According to the Consumer Technology Association, more than 155 million smartphones were supplied to the United States in 2022, representing a nearly 1% increase from 2021. Furthermore, as smartphone adoption grows, companies add extra features and applications to differentiate their products from competitors.
• However, With increasing end-user demand for flash memory devices such as NOR Flash memory, research and development costs are expected to rise. Furthermore, the availability of substitutes is one of the market's challenges. For example, NAND and DRAM are the most commonly used NOR flash memory substitutes. However, in terms of density, NOR flash memory is frequently compared to NAND flash memory.

Americas Flash Memory Industry Segmentation

Flash memory is a non-volatile electronic computer memory storage medium that can be erased and reprogrammed electrically. Flash memory is widely used in embedded systems to store data and code. Unlike traditional hard drives, flash memory can store data even after the power is turned off. NOR flash and NAND flash are the two main types of flash memory. Both employ the same cell design, which consists of a floating gate. The market study comprises the value and volume of flash memory.

The Americas Flash Memory Market is segmented by type (NOR flash memory [density (2 MB & less, 4 MB & less [greater than 2MB], 8 MB & Less [greater than 4MB], 16 MB & less [greater than 8MB), 32 MB & less (greater than 16MB), 64 MB & less [greater than 32MB]]), NAND flash memory (by density (128 MB & less, 512 MB & less, 2 GIGABIT & less [greater than 1GB], 256 MB & less, 1 GB & less, 4 GB & less [greater than 2GB]]), by end user (data center (enterprise and servers), automotive, mobile and tablet, client [PC, client SSD]). The report offers the market size in value terms in USD for all the abovementioned segments.
