Market Dynamics of High bandwidth Memory Market

Key Drivers of High bandwidth Memory Market

Growing Requirement for Very Scalable, Low Power Consumption, High Bandwidth Memories to Increase the Demand Globally

After the HBM standard was originally released, ten years later, 2.5 generations were available on the market.Synopsys reports that throughout that time, the amount of data created, captured, copied, and consumed increased dramatically, rising from 2 zettabytes in 2010 to 64.2 ZB in 2020. Synopsys predicts that by 2025, the quantity will have increased by almost three times, to 181 ZB. In 2016, HBM2 raised both the capacity and signaling rate to 256 GB/s and 2 Gbps, respectively. Two years later, HBM2E hit the market and eventually achieved data rates of approximately 460 GB/s and 3.6 Gbps. Performance in computing has been and will continue to be greatly aided by higher memory bandwidth. As a result, both the need for performance and the advanced applications' constant bandwidth requirements are increasing. Thus, driving the market growth.

Growing Miniaturization Trends in Electronic Devices to Propel Market Growth

One of the prevailing trends in the consumer electronics industry is the growing need for electronics that are lighter, smaller, and more efficient. This phenomenon is commonly referred to as the shrinking of electronics and components. Buying products with many functions on a single platform is now feasible due to the rapid improvements in technology. Another innovation that necessitates fewer electrical components is memory chips, which require thinner and smaller form factors to conserve space. Applications of high-speed, highly integrated autonomous cars clearly show that reduced space consumption and improved electrical performance are needed. Because of these considerations in the final product design, high bandwidth memory becomes more important when building modern electronic systems.

Restraint Factors Of High bandwidth Memory Market

High Prices and Design Challenges Associated with HBM to Limit the Sales

HBM is a powerful variant of an ultra-bandwidth solution, but it is also fairly pricey due to the product's complexity. HBM2 has a high cost. Assuming a high yield and a USD 20 adjustment, GDDR5 is almost three times more expensive than this. HBM has certain disadvantages in terms of cost, capacity, and application complexity, even though it exceeds GDDR in terms of high bandwidth and applicability. Because of this, GDDR and HBM are being implemented by numerous graphic card manufacturers in various application fields. Chipmakers have made it quite clear that HBM3 makes sense in systems that contain an interposer, like a chipset-based design that has already used a silicon interposer for that reason. Therefore, market growth will be constrained by high prices and design challenges associated with HBM.

Impact of Covid-19 on the High Bandwidth Memory Market

The market for high bandwidth memory has been impacted by Covid-19 in a number of ways. Production and delivery of HBM goods were first delayed due to problems in the worldwide supply chain and manufacturing procedures. Some of the early disappointment...
