SDRAM shows buoyant signs amid insufficient supply

DigiTimes.com

Monday 25 September 2006]
The buoyant price trend of SDRAM is likely to persist, thanks
to seasonal effects and limited supply from leading players, according to industry players.

DRAMeXchange observes that prices of SDRAM have increased recently along with a seasonal demand boost for consumer electronics. The persistent shortage of DRAM as well as the recent uptick of NAND flash have further put pressure on the available capacity of SDRAM from leading players including Hynix Semiconductor and Samsung Electronics.

Sources indicated that Hynix’s Wuxi, China plant is now fully geared up for DDR2 production after achieving satisfactory yields on SDRAM production. The sources explained that DRAM makers usually produce SDRAM at a new site to test production quality prior to mass production of DRAM.

Quotes for mainstream 256Mbit SDRAM 133MHz (16Mbitx16) and 64Mbit 143/166MHz (4Mbitx16) chips have grown by 3.96% and have been stable over the past three months and closed at US$2.83 and US$0.85, respectively, on September 25, according to figures posted by DRAMeXchange.
