Buy SK hynix SDRAM Modules
In a world racing toward the next-gen frontier with AI, IoT, and edge computing, it’s easy to overlook the technologies that keep critical infrastructure running quietly in the background. Industrial control systems commonly remain operational for up to 20 years, often in environments where maintenance windows are rare, environments are challenging, and downtime is expensive.
The DRAM market is shifting as top players Samsung Electronics, SK Hynix, and Micron are phasing out DDR3 and DDR4 in 2025 and pivoting toward DDR5 and high-bandwidth memory (HBM).
The past year has been challenging for memory suppliers. Independent analysts report that customer inventory levels have been depleting while demand has been increasing. Supplier production levels and capacity investments have been cut back.
Additionally, a new post-COVID supply/demand balance has been reached with price stabilization after price declines not seen in 15 years.
The Changing Market
Industry pundits forecast that suppliers will be slow to increase capacity as they need time to recover. DDR4 supply is expected to tighten as mainstream demand shifts to DDR5. And eMMC growth is expected to continue. Price increases are projected to resume and accelerate as we enter a period of undersupply by 2024.
Now is the time to ensure your supply is stable for the period ahead. Qualify SMARTsemi DRAM, eMMC, and Flash Cards today.
Today’s armed forces are computerized, mechanized, and mobile. They depend on sophisticated, connected devices that provide real-time communications and information vital to reaching the right decision, at the right time.
Those devices rely on a supply chain that is setup to service long-lifecycle products because military equipment takes years to design and qualify and maintaining a supply of products can make all the difference on the battlefield.
In the U.S. and globally, defense spending is expected to continue growing in 2025 with modernization efforts and investments in new technologies for weapons, communications, and AI systems.
The US DoD has requested a 2025 budget of $850 Billion for defense, up slightly from 2024. Of that budget, nearly $140 Million is earmarked for the procurement of semiconductors, primarily for naval, air, and space systems.
Embedded DRAMs are used for high speed data processing. eMMCs provide local processing and storage and SD Cards are used to transport data, store logs and recovery routines, images, and videos.
These components are commonly used in Communications devices like handheld radios; Navigation equipment like GPS units; Surveillance gear like cameras and radars; Control Systems like laptops and tablets; and Aviation subsystems like flight recorders
