Kingmax delivers DRAM modules to Sony
Taipei, Aug. 7, 2000 (CENS)--Kingmax Technology Inc. has delivered its DRAM modules for notebook PCs to Sony, paving the way for the Taiwanese IC memory card maker to become a long term DRAM module supplier to Sony, executives of the firm said Monday.
Kingmax began delivering its DRAM modules to Sony in July, with the sales accounting for 20,000 units per month. This is expected to help Kingmax become a long term DRAM module supplier for Sony.
Beginning the second half, the supply of DRAM products has been unable to meet the hectic market demand both at home and abroad. Several international system manufacturers have already placed long-term orders with Taiwanese memory manufacturers in the field, thus ensuring the supply sources
Being a major DRAM module manufacturer in Taiwan, Kingmax has become increasingly successful in the supply of its products to Micron Technology, Gateway, and Dell over the past few years.
Kingmax will use the TinyBGA packaging method, the latest of its kind for the manufacture of its DRAM modules.
In an attempt to set up an integrated manufacturing system, Kingmax has already invested NT$1 billion to establish a technology subsidiary for specialized DRAM packaging services. With a brand name strategy, Kingmax expects to rank as one of the world's top three specialized DRAM packaging manufacturers in the future.
