subject: Aarkstore enterprise---Global NOR Flash Market 2009-2013 [print this page] Global NOR Flash Market 2009-2013 report forecasts the NOR Flash market to grow at a CAGR of 5.4 percent, with APAC region witnessing highest growth rate.
The major growth drivers include:
- Low power consumption of just 1.8V, which makes it compatible for the latest mobile phone designs
- High performance capabilities, such as Multi-Bank Structure (16 banks), Read while Programming/ Erasing, etc, which is expanding their usage to other products such as projectors, set-top boxes, servers, etc.
- High speed read application, which make them popular in portable devices such as cellular phones and PDAs
- Block locking capabilities of NOR Flash devices help protect the block from accidental writes, which is preferred, as it allows software to protect blocks against inadvertent changes.
However, the market is facing some challenges which can inhibit the growth. For example NOR Flash devices are more expensive compared to NAND Flash devices which de-motivate the customers from using NOR Flash devices. That also applies to extremely slow write and erase capabilities compared to NAND Flash devices.
