HBM2E
TrendForce projects a remarkable 105% increase in annual bit shipments of high-bandwidth memory (HBM) this year. This boost comes in response to soaring demands from AI and high-performance computing processor developers, notably Nvidia, and cloud service providers (CSPs). To fulfill demand, Micron, Samsung, and SK Hynix are reportedly increasing their HBM capacities, but new production lines will likely start operations only in Q2 2022. More HBM Is Needed Memory makers managed to more or less match the supply and demand of HBM in 2022, a rare occurrence in the market of DRAM. However, an unprecedented demand spike for AI servers in 2023 forced developers of appropriate processors (most notably Nvidia) and CSPs to place additional orders for HBM2E and HBM3 memory. This made DRAM makers use...
