Micron Technology
Memory and storage innovation for AI
About Micron Technology
Micron Technology is one of the world's three major memory manufacturers, producing DRAM, NAND flash, and High Bandwidth Memory (HBM) that are foundational to AI computing. Every AI training run and inference query depends on fast, high-capacity memory, and Micron's products serve data centers, edge devices, and consumer electronics globally.
Micron's HBM products are critical components in AI accelerators from Nvidia, AMD, and others. The company has invested heavily in HBM3E production capacity to meet surging demand from AI infrastructure buildouts. Its data center DRAM and SSDs also see strong demand from cloud providers scaling AI workloads.
Headquartered in Boise, Idaho, Micron operates fabs in the US, Japan, Singapore, and Taiwan. The company has received significant CHIPS Act funding to expand domestic manufacturing capacity, reinforcing the US semiconductor supply chain for AI applications.
