Trendforce's DRAMeXchange predicts the strong growth in embedded NAND flash to continue through 2011, thanks to the smartphone and tablet PC markets.
NAND Flash demand for embedded systems reaches 40% of the memory market in 2010, and will grow up to 63% in 2011. The diversification to system products should help ease the impact on the memory card and UFD market section.
Handsets will make over 40% of total NAND flash consumption, while the growing tablet PC will take over 10%.
The UFD market will decline accordingly, Trendforce says.
