January 05, 2007 - The report "CSR Flash Memory Cards and Readers" estimates that Greater China’s exports of flash memory cards and readers reached to about US $ 1.4 billion in the year 2006, the growth rate being almost 60%. This momentum is expected to continue as more makers expand their production capacities to serve the emerging markets.
Mirroring this ongoing trend, the shipments of flash memory card readers have also been gaining momentum. Also, due to the low technology of card reader production, many existing computer accessory makers have been jumping onto the bandwagon.
The makers in China produce a wide range of flash memory cards like MultiMedia Cards(MMCs), Compact Flash(CF), Secure Digital (SDP), Memory Stick (MS), SmartMedia(SM), MicroDrive, etc and their variants.
It is estimated that in the year 2007, the makers will focus their research and development on increasing their storage capacity, lowering power consumption and enhancing the data transfer rate.
The report suggests that mainland China’s projected 2006 shipments of flash memory cards and card readers are higher than the 2005 shipments by fifty percent and twenty percent respectively.
The developed markets in North America and Western Europe import most of these products. In fact, flash memory cards and card reader makers are slowly turning into emerging markets in Southeast Asia and East Asia.
