APAC Dynamic Random Access Memory (DRAM) Market Analysis

The APAC Dynamic Random Access Memory Market size is estimated at USD 43.98 billion in 2025, and is expected to reach USD 52.44 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 3.58% during the forecast period (2025-2030).

DRAM is a high-volume commodity memory semi-components generally used in smartphones, tablets, PCs, and servers. Historically, DRAM memory technology has gone through die shrinks. With the release of the advanced memory module, the x/y memory cell pattern on the silicon wafer is turning smaller and smaller.

  • Consumer products, like tablets and cameras, industrial equipment and sensors, automotive systems, and medical devices, depend upon DRAM flash memory, incorporated alongside their processors that store data and the code they execute. However, data centers find utilization in DRAM flash memory due to its near real-time reaction to reading/write requests and high data transfer rate. As the need for massive data processing for artificial intelligence and machine learning applications increases, the DRAM storage trend will likely continue to evolve.
  • In May 2022, the Overseas Economic Research Institute (OERI) of the Export-Import Bank of Korea estimated that the technological gaps between Korea and China in the memory semiconductor sector were five years for DRAMs and two years for NAND flashes. In response to the launch of new CPUs by Intel Corporation and AMD that support DDR5 DRAM solutions for PCs and servers, South Korean suppliers are developing solutions to complement the arrival of the new CPUs.
  • In March 2022, ChangXin Memory Technology (CXMT) announced its plan to manufacture DDR5 in the Chinese market. CXMT's ambitions ramped up recently due to significant investment from its parent company, Ruili Integration. The company aims to invest in more R&D and boost production facilities/capacity.
  • However, the rising price sensitivity with ever-growing features in tablets and smartphones is also driving fewer sales for such electronic devices, which is expected to lower the need for DRAMs. The long-life cycle of DRAMS delivers one-time investments for memory solutions unless affected by severe damage, thus, slowing down the manufacturing need for DRAMs and adding challenges to the vendors in the market.

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.
