Toshiba to reopen flash memory fab By Jack Robertson EBN (04/18/02 21:04 p.m. EST) Toshiba Corp. on Friday morning Tokyo time said that a flash memory and SRAM fab in Yokkaichi, Japan, that has been closed since last October will reopen this month because of improving market conditions. A spokesman said the reopened fab has a capacity of 35K wafers a month. He said the recovery of the flash market prompted Toshiba to resume production. A second fab at Yokkaichi with a similar capacity making memory chips has remained in production. Toshiba last December sold its DRAM fab in Manassas, Va. to Micron Technology, and announced it was leaving the commodity DRAM business. However, the Japanese chip maker continues to produce Direct Rambus DRAMs for the Sony Play Station II game player, specialty DRAMs, flash and SRAMs.
