全球 NOR 快閃記憶體市場 – 2024 年至 2029 年預測Global NOR Flash Memory Market - Forecasts from 2024 to 2029 |
NOR快閃記憶體市場預計將從2024年的23.55億美元成長到2029年的31.73億美元,複合年成長率為6.14%。
NOR 快閃記憶體是一種非揮發性記憶體,用於各種應用中的資料存儲,包括家用電子電器、汽車和其他需要記憶體儲存的類似領域。非揮發性儲存設備不需要電源來保留資料。
NOR快閃記憶體有著廣泛的應用。在汽車領域,它用於最終用途嵌入式代碼儲存應用,例如儀表板儀表叢集和 ADAS(高級駕駛員輔助系統)。 NOR快閃記憶體通常用於需要高可靠性的應用,例如除了診斷之外還需要遠端監控的醫療設備。
在物聯網設備需求不斷成長的推動下,未來幾年對 NOR 快閃記憶體的需求預計將增加。此外,全球消費者物聯網需求顯著成長,其中包括 Alexa 等人工智慧家庭揚聲器。亞馬遜表示,到 2023 年,該公司將在全球銷售約 5 億台 Amazon Alexa 設備,與前一年同期比較成長 35%。印度等各國政府推出了各種政策和計劃,吸引大企業和產業龍頭投資本國家用電子電器產業。
智慧型手機和穿戴式裝置等其他智慧型裝置銷量的增加預計也將增加對 NOR 快閃記憶體的需求。通常,智慧型手機結合使用 NAND 和 NOR 快閃記憶體系統來實現安全、快速的記憶體傳輸。根據Macroniox International Co.Ltd. 2022年年度資料,該公司快閃記憶體銷量佔總量的66.69%,其中NOR快閃記憶體約佔總量的55%。
低程式碼儲存應用預計將在預測期內推動 NOR 快閃記憶體市場的成長。此外,半導體產業不斷進步的技術預計也將增強 NOR 快閃記憶體市場的成長潛力。然而,高密度程式碼儲存應用的兼容性問題以及與市場上替代解決方案相比的高成本預計將阻礙預測期內的市場成長。
NOR快閃記憶體市場的成長可能會受到儲存密度低和產品成本等多種因素的限制。與NAND快閃記憶體快閃記憶體相比,NOR 快閃記憶體的儲存密度較低。此外,有限的擦除週期會影響通常需要頻繁寫入操作的裝置的長期可靠性。
在全球範圍內,物聯網產業近年來經歷了顯著成長。物聯網技術正在被納入從汽車到家用電子電器的各個領域。對於這些設備,可靠的 NOR 快閃記憶體是儲存代碼和韌體的理想選擇。
世界各國政府都在推動物聯網和物聯網設備的發展。例如,印度政府旨在為約1,000家致力於物聯網發展的中小企業提供約80%的研發成本資金。這些政策預計將支持各國物聯網產業的成長和發展,同時增加全球對 NOR 快閃記憶體系統的需求。
根據鎧俠公司 2021 年 3 月的技術概覽,256 MB NOR 快閃記憶體的售價約為 4 美元,而 1 GB NAND快閃記憶體快閃記憶體的售價為 1 美元。當使用NAND快閃記憶體代替 NOR 快閃記憶體時,這意味著成本降低 4 倍,容量提高 4 倍。
此外,根據鎧俠公司的新聞稿,具有智慧應用程式的軟體、先進的物聯網設備和更快的通訊協定正在推動對具有更密集程式碼儲存的經濟高效儲存的需求。目前應用程式和程式碼儲存的要求達到Gigabit或更多容量,這也有望提振市場。
預計亞太地區將佔據 NOR 快閃記憶體市場的主要佔有率。
預計亞太地區將佔據 NOR 快閃記憶體市場的主要佔有率。由於各國政府採取越來越多的舉措來促進本國的技術進步,預計該地區將在預測期內實現高速成長。
印度政府推出了PLI 計劃,以提高該國的智慧型手機產量。印度政府發布的新聞稿稱,這項舉措將使該國成為全球第二大智慧型手機製造商,2021 年至 2022 年間智慧型手機產量約 3.2 億部。政府採取此類政策將促進外國直接投資進入該國智慧型手機製造領域,並鼓勵TATA、富士康和三星等各種新的主要參與企業在該國投資和設立製造工廠。
同樣,印度政府也計劃大力投資物聯網特定產業,以提升該國的物聯網格局。根據國際物聯網研究合作計劃,政府計劃與其他國家共同推出物聯網研發計劃,並以50%投資的基礎上合作。該地區多個國家(例如越南、台灣和中國)也採取了此類舉措,以促進消費性電子產業的發展,增加了對智慧型手機和穿戴式裝置等製造設備所涉及零件的需求。
NOR 快閃記憶體支援 64 MB、128MB、256MB 和 512MB 的代碼儲存容量。因此,設備設計人員正在放棄嵌入式 NOR。因為SLC NAND是唯一具有成本效益且支援許多高密度代碼儲存應用的快閃記憶體。此外,由於各種最終用戶行業對代碼和內存所需的大內存存儲容量,預計 NOR 閃存將被NAND快閃記憶體閃訪問代。
The global NOR flash memory market is projected to witness a compound annual growth rate of 6.14% to grow to US$3.173 billion by 2029, from US$2.355 billion in 2024.
NOR flash memory is a type of non-volatile memory used to store data for a range of applications like consumer electronics, automotive, and other similar segments requiring memory storage. Non-volatile memory devices do not require power to retain data in them.
NOR flash memory has a wide range of applications. It is used in low-end embedded code storage applications like dashboard instrument clusters and advanced driver assistance (ADAS) systems in automotive segments. NOR flash memory is also highly used in applications where higher reliability is needed, like medical devices, which require remote monitoring in addition to diagnosis.
Driven by the increase in the demand for IoT devices, it is anticipated that the demand for NOR flash memory will increase in the coming years. Furthermore, the world witnessed a significant increase in consumer IoT demand, including AI home speakers like Alexa. According to Amazon, the company sold about half a billion Amazon Alexa devices worldwide till 2023 and recorded an increase of 35% in year-on-year sales. The governments of various countries like India are introducing various policies and schemes to invite major players and industry leaders to invest in their consumer electronics sector.
The increase in the sales of smartphones and other smart devices, including wearables, is also predicted to push the demand for the NOR flash memory forward. Generally, a smartphone uses a combination of both NAND and NOR flash memory systems for safe and faster memory transfer. In 2022, Macroniox International Co. Ltd.'s annual data revealed that the flash sales of the company encompassed 66.69% of their total sales, of which NOR flash accounted for about 55% of the total sales.
The low code storage applications are projected to propel the market growth of NOR flash memory in the forecast period. Growing technological advancements in the semiconductor industry are also projected to enhance the market lucrativeness of the NOR flash memory market. However, the high-density code storage application compatibility issues, along with higher costs compared to alternative solutions in the market, are projected to hinder the market growth during the predictive period.
NOR flash memory market growth can be restrained by various factors, including low storage density and the cost of the product. NOR flash memory offers lower storage density as compared to NAND flash memory. It also has a limited erase cycle, which generally affects the long-term reliability of devices that need frequent write operations.
Globally, the IoT industry witnessed significant growth in recent years. The IoT technology is integrated into various sectors, from the automotive to consumer electronics. In such devices, NOR flash memory is ideally installed for storing codes and firmware, as these are reliable.
The governments of various countries are pushing for the development of IoT and IoT-enabled devices. For instance, the government of India aimed to fund about 80% of the total cost of research and development to about 1000 SMEs that are contributing to the IoT development. These policies will push the growth and development of the IoT industry in the nations, simultaneously creating an increase in the demand for the NOR flash memory system worldwide.
According to the March 2021 Technical Brief by KIOXIA corporation, 256 MB of NOR flash memory sells for about US$4.00 as compared to the 1 GB NAND flash memory, which sells for US$1.00. This leads to 4X cost savings and 4X larger capacities when NAND flash memory is used in place of NOR flash.
Further, the release by KIOXIA Corporation stated that software with intelligent applications, advanced IoT devices, and faster communication protocols are driving the demand for cost-effective storage with higher-density code storage. The current requirements for application code storage have reached 1 gigabit or even more in capacity, which is also anticipated to fuel the market.
Asia Pacific is anticipated to hold a significant share of the global NOR flash memory market.
Asia Pacific region is anticipated to hold a significant market share in global NOR flash memory. This region is projected to witness high growth during the forecast period owing to the growing initiatives by the governments of various countries to push technological advancements in the nation.
The Indian government launched a PLI scheme to boost the production of smartphones in the nation. According to the press release by the Indian government, this initiative made the nation the second biggest smartphone manufacturer in the world, with about 320 million smartphones manufactured in 2021-2022. The introduction of such policies from the government boosts the foreign direct investments in the country in the smartphone manufacturing landscape, introducing various new key players like TATA, Foxconn, and Samsung to invest and set up their manufacturing plants in the nation.
Similarly, the Indian government has also planned to invest heavily in the IoT-specific industry to boost the IoT landscape in the nation; under the 'International IoT Research Collaboration Scheme', the government will initiate and collaborate with other countries to generate a joint IoT research and development projects on 50% contribution basis. Such initiatives are also taken by various countries, like Vietnam, Taiwan, and China, in the region to boost their consumer electronics industry, which creates an increase in the demand for parts and components included in the manufacturing of such devices as smartphones and wearables.
NOR flash memory accommodates code storage with 64 megabits (MB), 128 MB, 256 MB, and 512 MB capacities. This has led device designers to shift from embedded NOR, as SLC NAND is the only flash memory available that is cost-effective and supports many high-density code storage applications. Moreover, the high memory storage requirements by various end-user industries for code and memory are projected to replace NOR flash with NAND flash memory type.
