Product Overview

Non-volatile memory is electrically programmable and erasable memory that is utilized for storing changes in a particular location within the storage device and is capable of retaining the change even in case of a power outage. Non-volatile memory is used for long term persistent storage of data. NVM uses user-configurable technology which does not need periodic refreshment of the memory. The memory devices such as flash disk, magnetic tapes and hard-disk are some of the major examples of NVM. Consumer electronics is one of the major application segments of the NVM. The main property of NVM is that it can store large data with less power usage and high reliability.

Market Size and Forecast

The global non-volatile memory market is anticipated to expand at a CAGR around 11% during 2017-2027. The growing demand for consumer wearable electronics and substitution of flash memory storage is expected to provide new growth opportunities for the non-volatile memory market.
