[SK Hynix has significantly expanded its production of 5th generation 1b DRAM to meet the increasing demand for HBM and DDR5]

According to insiders, SK Hynix is expanding its production of 5th generation 1b DRAM to meet the increasing demand for HBM and DDR5 DRAM. SK Hynix has placed orders with several equipment companies. With this investment, SK Hynix's 1b DRAM production capacity is expected to increase from 10,000 wafers per month in the first quarter to 90,000 wafers per month by the end of the year. SK Hynix also plans to increase 1b DRAM production to 140,000 to 150,000 wafers by the first half of next year. "If SK Hynix's sales volume requires 100 units, the production or investment department will only accept 70-80%," said an insider. "We are very cautious." Another insider said, "The growth in the number of equipment orders has exceeded our initial expectations." (The Elec)
