APAC Dynamic Random Access Memory (DRAM) Industry Overview
The Asia-Pacific DRAM market is highly consolidated due to the dominance of a few major prominent players in the region that contribute a maximum market share. Some of the key vendors in the regional market include Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd, SK hynix Inc., Micron Technology Inc., Nanya Technology Corporation, and Winbond Electronics Corporation.
- February 2023 - SK hynix announced that the company has developed Low Power Double Data Rate 5 Turbo (LPDDR5T) mobile DRAM, which operates at a data rate of 9.6 gigabits per second, 13% faster than the previous generation, namely LPDDR5X, which was announced in November 2022. SK hynix indicated that the "T" at the end of the product name directs to "turbo," as it desires to emphasize the fast data processing speed of the memory chip. The company plans to mass-produce the LPDDR5T in the year's second half.
- December 2022 - Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd announced the expansion of its 16-gigabit (GB) DDR5 DRAM, utilizing the industry's first 12-nanometer (nm)-class process technology and the fulfillment of product evaluation for compatibility with AMD. In addition, the company reported that the 12nm-range DRAM would be a key enabler in driving market-wide adoption of DDR5 DRAM. With exceptional performance and power efficiency, the company expects DRAM to be the foundation for more sustainable operations in next-generation computing, data centers, and AI-driven systems.
