Market Share of United States Semiconductor Memory Industry

The US semiconductor memory market features major players like Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd, Alliance Memory, and Microchip Technology contributing to its semi-consolidated nature. Market participants are actively leveraging strategies such as partnerships and acquisitions to bolster their product portfolios and secure enduring competitive advantages. 

• In March 2024, Nvidia announced its intention to source high-bandwidth memory (HBM) chips, a pivotal element in AI processors, from Samsung. This move comes as Samsung aims to close the gap with its competitor, SK Hynix, who has already commenced mass production of their latest HBM chip. An Nvidia spokesperson highlighted, "HBM memory is intricate, with significant value addition."
• August 2023: Samsung Electronics announced the development of 32-gigabit (Gb) DDR5 DRAM. According to the company, the new DRAM is based on 12 nanometers (nm)-class process technology. It is anticipated that the development of DRAM modules of up to 1 terabyte (TB) will be facilitated to serve the growing need for high-capacity DRAM in the era of AI and big data.
