[Taiwan Quake] SRAM Shortage for Mobile Phones Likely September 30, 1999 (TOKYO) -- Static random access memory (SRAM) for use in mobile phones is feared to be in short supply following the recent earthquake in Taiwan. Japanese semiconductor manufacturers have OEMed SRAM production to Taiwan foundries. Semiconductor production lines have been negatively impacted by the quake that hit Taiwan on Sept. 21. The quake is said to have devastated supply levels of SRAMs for mobile phone use. They were already at low levels in pre-quake days, because there are a handful of SRAM manufacturers. Mask ROMs and flash memory for the BIOS of a PC are also reportedly in short supply, as they are manufactured in Taiwan. (Nikkei Market Access)
