Rumored samsung to solid leading position, to production in the second half of next year, 15, 16 DRAM, rival SK Hynix and Micron lagged far behind, technology gap of about a year and a half.
BusinessKorea 31, semiconductor industry, according to samsung production earlier this year 18 nm process DRAM memory department, preparing production in the second half of next year, 15, 16 nano DRAM.At the same time, the company will pull up 18 nm DRAM total DRAM production proportion, the target in the second half of next year to 30 ~ 40%.Relevant personage says, samsung 10 nanometers grade DRAM, next year will account for half of the total DRAM.
TrendForce DRAMeXchange's store brand DRAMeXchange (global semiconductor) estimated that the current samsung DRAM production is given priority to with 20 nanometers, accounted for 82%, only 12% 18 nm.
Samsung process miniature progress more rapidly than previously expected, storage department supervisor Chung Eun already suggested that early last year, 2020 to 10 nanometers grade DRAM, mass production now, it seems, can achieve results should be the beginning of 2019.
Samsung DRAM is dominant, the data show that the second quarter of this year samsung DRAM market share as high as 46.6%.Rival SK hynix DRAM and light process is still in nanometer level 20, until after the second quarter next year will start production of 18 nm DRAM, technology gap between about a year to a year and a half.
