Semiconductor Memory IP Market Analysis

The Semiconductor Memory IP Market is expected to register a CAGR of 12.3% during the forecast period.

  • Semiconductor memory IP is witnessing direct impact of the growing demand for high-performance memory systems across all the end-user verticals. Increasing complexity of the semiconductors and growing demand for intense memory operations are resulting in a demand for faster and efficient memory solutions in the market.
  • Companies are investing in developing efficient memory solutions. IoT, automation, and autonomous vehicle technologies due to which expansion is happening at a rapid pace. There has been driving demand for new types of semiconductor infrastructure which will support the growth of this market.
  • There are high costs associated with the technology. The cost of its adoption is high due to which it has hampered the growth of this market.

North America is Expected to Hold Significant Market Share

  • The growing need for intelligent command and control in many industries in North America is presenting important market opportunities for many superconductor memory manufacturers. For instance, Hitachi, Ltd.  and its subsidiary Hitachi America, Ltd., announced the merger of Hitachi America subsidiaries Hitachi Semiconductor (America) Inc., Brisbane, Calif., and Hitachi Micro Systems Inc., San Jose, Calif., to create a unified organization focused on the design, development and marketing of large-scale integrated semiconductor systems to focus greater resources on building a systems solution business in North America, while consolidating high-volume semiconductor production to a unified operating base to achieve greater operating efficiencies.
  • According to SEMI, growth of semiconductor market sufferered (0.9% percent lower than the final September 2018 level of USD 2.07 billion, and is 2.0 percent higher than the October 2017 billings level of USD 2.02 billion), Although the growth rate has suffered but it is expected to to rise due to the increased demand of DRAMS as the most efficient semiconductor memory type.
  • Due to the increase in number of data centers in the United States, the demand for DRAMS have increased significantly due to the efficiency they provide. The costs of running a data center include many aspects beyond the initial purchase of the base infrastructure. Modern IT organizations realize that a memory and storage hierarchy from DRAM to Solid State Drives (SSDs) to Hard Disk Drives can be an important data center feature that their users will depend on. According to AFCOM, Annual global IP traffic will reach 3.3 zettabytes by 2021. In 2016, global IP traffic was 1.2 ZB per year or 96 exabytes (one billion gigabytes) per month. With the increased amount of data generated.

Semiconductor Memory IP Industry Overview

The Semiconductor Memory IP market is highly competitive and consists of several major players. In terms of market share, few of the major players currently dominate the market. The costs associated with the manufacturing needs to be reduced in order to save the expenses and thus investments in the research and development have been increasing. The manufacturers are adopting the practice of "fabless" in order to save on the expenses occurred. 

April 2019 - SiFive, the leading provider of commercial RISC-V processor IP, announced the launch of the S2 Core IP Series at the Linley Spring Processor Conference in Santa Clara. The S2 Core IP Series is a 64-bit addition to SiFive's 2 Series Core IP and brings advanced features to SiFive's smallest microcontrollers. The S2 Series further adds to SiFive's extensive, vastly customizable, optimized, silicon-proven, embedded core IP portfolio, which comprises the 2, 3, 5, and 7 Core IP Series in E (32-bit) and S (64-bit) variants.

Semiconductor Memory IP Industry Segmentation

Volatile memory, is the memory that requires power to maintain the stored information. It retains its contents while powered on but when the power is interrupted, the stored data is quickly lost. Volatile memory has several uses including as primary storage. In addition to usually being faster than forms of mass storage such as a hard disk drive, volatility can protect sensitive information, as it becomes unavailable on power-down.
Non Volatile Memory is a type of memory that can retrieve stored information even after having been power cycled. Non-volatile memory is majorly popular amongst digital media. It is widely used in memory chips for USB memory sticks and digital cameras. Non-volatile memory eradicates the need for relatively slow types of secondary storage systems, including hard disks.
