The increasing adoption of consumer electronics is expected to drive the growth of the computer microchip market in the future. Consumer electronics are devices intended for personal use, primarily for entertainment, communication, and personal management, aiming to simplify everyday life with user-friendly technology. Several factors contribute to the rising adoption of consumer electronics, including enhanced connectivity, remote work and learning, affordability, and accessibility. Computer chips serve as the central processing units of these devices, managing operations and ensuring smooth performance. They handle connectivity and optimize power usage to extend battery life in portable electronics. For example, in May 2023, the Japan Electronics and Information Technology Industries Association reported that Japan's total electronic equipment production reached $4.91 billion (¥771,457 million), with consumer electronics production at $204.67 million (¥32,099 million), up from $161.12 million (¥25,268 million) in May 2022. This increase in consumer electronics adoption is fueling the growth of the computer microchip market.
Leading companies in the computer microchip industry are focusing on developing advanced products such as high-bandwidth memory chips to meet the growing demand for faster data processing and high-performance computing. High-bandwidth memory (HBM) chips facilitate quicker data transfer and communication between memory and processors, offering a broader data path. For example, in February 2024, Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd., a South Korea-based consumer electronics firm, introduced the HBM3E 12H memory chip, which is the highest-capacity chip to date for AI applications. This chip provides an impressive bandwidth of up to 1,280 gigabytes per second (GBps) and a capacity of 36 gigabytes (GB), representing a 50% increase in bandwidth and capacity. As the first 12-stack HBM3E DRAM available, it meets the growing demands of AI and high-performance computing. Samsung's thermal compression non-conductive film (TC NCF) enables the 12-layer stack to maintain the same height as 8-layer configurations, effectively managing heat and reducing chip die warping, making it ideal for data centers and high-demand AI applications.
