Relative to the decline of old HDD disk, NAND flash memory and SSD SSD became storage market trend direction of development. Whether in mobile devices, personal computers, or in fast-growing markets such as the data center. Now, because China has become the largest market of NAND flash memory, and SSD solid-state hard drive is of the fastest growing market. Therefore, also attracted various rushing into local Chinese manufacturers.
Part in NAND flash market, according to DRAMeXchange TrendForce's latest research report shows that the consumption of the Chinese market NAND flash memory is becoming more and more in 2017 will account for 30% of global market share, more will reach 40% by 2020, huge potential for development.
Just because of this rapid development, attracted the attention of NAND flash memory company in the world. Including South Korea's samsung xi 'an investment NAND plant has been put into production in China, the main products is 3 d NAND flash memory. And Intel (Intel) is to transform the sealing test in dalian factory into NAND plant, is expected to start small production by the end of 2016, the main products is probably 3 d XPoint flash memory.
NAND flash memory is NAND from 2 d to 3 d development of NAND flash memory, and the NAND market is under continuous development, the NAND flash memory has become important to China's development of the semiconductor market. Therefore, boasts large funds to the nation of China's integrated circuit industry fund, the choice of the choice of the NAND flash memory in recent years as the semiconductor industry key investment project, also in order to foster the establishment of local Chinese manufacturers.
At present, the ongoing project, mainly has cost more than $24 billion, dominated by wuhan new core technology of storage chip base at the national level. Now expects the first phase of the factory to manufacture NAND flash memory, is expected to formally put into production in 2018 3 d NAND flash memory. In addition, in shenzhen, xiamen, quanzhou, fujian, hefei and other places are also actively expand the memory chip industry, local government investment is also big.
In addition to market of NAND flash memory itself, is a rapidly growing manufacturers in mainland China also actively into the SSD SSD control IC market. The SSD SSD control IC market is mainly in the United States is a Marvel, SandForce, manufacturers hui rong (SMI) and China's Taiwan region, intellectual micro (JMicron), and other companies in the world, but Chinese companies also began to appear in the market. Including Marvell has reached a cooperation agreement with shenzhen enami dragon company, other such as: such as microelectronics, the things in the science and technology, the national science microelectronics company also announced similar plans or products, but there is no small, almost in the consumer market is still far from a market share.
, however, because of the support of the Chinese market with state funds, is currently the most popular SSD solid-state drives future than in China to store a certain amount of cases, the development of China's future is still to be reckoned with.
