Micron revealed that mass production of DRAM made using its 1yn process technology will start in the second half of this year. The company also indicated it intends to move to 1znm production in 2020.
Micron has entered volume production of 1xnm DRAM chips at both its factory sites in Taoyuan (northern Taiwan) and Taichung (central Taiwan), and is gearing up for commercial production of 1ynm-made chips in the second half of this year, Hsu indicated. Micron also plans to move a newer 1znm node to volume production in 2020, [Micron Memory Taiwan chairman KC] Hsu said.
Meanwhile, Micron's backend plant in Taichung has kicked off volume production, Hsu noted. The facility is fully automated to provide high-end backend services such as 3D IC integration for the production of DRAM chips, said Hsu, adding that Micron continues to maintain its existing ties with Taiwan-based OSAT providers.
