The Global Embedded Multimedia Card (eMMC) Market size is expected to reach $11.8 billion by 2027, rising at a market growth of 3.5% CAGR during the forecast period. An embedded multimedia card (eMMC) is an advanced embedded and non-volatile memory system. It comprises both a flash memory controller and flash memory. It streamlines the application interface design and releases the host processor from low-level flash memory management. Embedded multimedia card (eMMC) is promptly being adopted for various embedded applications like robotics, single board computers (SBC), medical devices, networking and building control devices, and automotive. It is due to its compact size, low power consumption, and various improved features. In the world of digitalization, there is rapid penetration of the internet of things (IoT), thus it is expected that the eMMC is also finding its way for many new applications.
The small footprint of eMMC, even smaller than a conventional postage stamp makes it ideal for many electronic gadgets. It is used in smartphones, smart TVs, small laptops, wearable technology, and smart home appliances. As storage is soldered directly onto the device’s motherboard so, the word “embedded” is added to its name. This is the reason why it is neither removable nor displaced from its place. eMMC storage comprises NAND flash, a technology that finds high applications in SD cards, USB drives, and solid-state drives but it is packaged differently.
Apart from its application in consumer products, eMMC is rapidly used in many other embedded applications like medical devices, automotive, Single Board Computers (SBC), robotics, networking, and building control devices. There are many advantageous features in eMMC such as its compact size, low power consumption, and enhanced features. The eMMC is finding its way to other applications with the massive growth of the IoT market.
