Automotive Memory Market Analysis

The rise in demand for automotive telematics and the adoption of sensors in automotive applications is expected to drive the demand for automotive memory, which in turn is expected to fuel the market growth in the coming years. In addition, stringent government norms regarding the deployment of telematics in vehicles are projected to boost the market growth from 2023 to 2031. Moreover, increasing demand for hybrid electric vehicles and electric vehicles across the world is expected to fuel the demand for automotive memories which in turn is projected to create opportunity for the key companies in the market during the forecast period.

Automotive Memory Market Overview

Vehicles are currently integrated with a variety of distributed memory types, such as static random-access memory, dynamic random-access memory, read-only memory, FLASH, and, in some cases, magnetoresistive random access memory (MRAM). Testing. Automotive storage is similar in function to commercial storage but works differently. It is more similar to ECC (Error Correcting Code) memories, which rely on the result of memory access, and the information stored is correct. As more microprocessors are used, distributed DRAM is used, which is locally responsible for signal, information processing, and SRAM or FLASH storage to transfer information between functions in the vehicle.

The new automotive architecture includes a centralized primary central processing unit (CPU) with a huge memory array comparable to that of a normal computer. Based on the data from all driver assistance, engine, and drive subsystems, this unit processes and makes systemic decisions. Unlike home and business computers, which have a lifespan of 2 to 5 years, car storage needs to run continuously for 12 to 20 years.

Automotive Memory Market Drivers and Opportunities

Growing Adoption of Advanced Sensors in Automotive to Favor Market

Automotive sensors are essential for the smooth operation of modern automobiles. These sensors provide information about numerous vehicle parameters to the electronic control unit (ECU), maximizing safety, efficiency, and performance. They do this by converting physical quantities into electrical impulses. These sensors are categorized into two main categories: first, by the physical properties they measure, and second, by the underlying technology they use. The sensors help reduce errors caused by wear or contamination, ensure stable measurements, and save space in high-temperature environments. The demand for pressure sensors is expected to surge and drive the industry forward rapidly. Pressure sensors are installed in the side doors of the car that send digital crash signals to the central airbag unit to prevent accidents.  Hence, the rise in the adoption of advanced sensors in automotive applications is expected to drive market growth in the coming years.

Growing Demand for Hybrid and Electric Vehicles Globally

The increase in fully electric vehicles (EV) and hybrid electric vehicles, accompanied by the emergence of ADAS, graphic instrument cluster (GIC), infotainment systems, and fully autonomous driving solutions, created a demand for electronic control units (ECU) - automotive controllers used in receiving and process signals from sensors and export control commands to the actuator to execute. For instance, in the US, new electric cars registered in the year 2023 totaled ~1,400,000 units, increased by 40% as compared to 2022. Such a rise in demand for electric vehicles is expected to create an opportunity for the key players operating in the automotive memory market.
