HBM shortages push AI chipmakers to cut stack heights, making 8hi mainstream from 2H27 while 12hi share declines.

Key Highlights

  • Spec Shift: Supply bottlenecks lead vendors to adjust HBM capacity, lifting 8hi penetration sharply.
  • Customer Strategy: NVIDIA Rubin Ultra and Google's new TPUs use 8hi; AMD keeps 12hi HBM but at limited scale.
  • Generation Mix: HBM4 stays 12hi-led in 1H27, then 8hi rises; 8hi share also grows in HBM3e and HBM4e.
  • Outlook: HBM stays undersupplied through 2028, so 8hi output surges and remains a mainstream spec.
