SK Hynix builds M15X Test Line to Respond to HBM Demand

SK hynix will build a 10nm 5th generation (1b) DRAM production line with a capacity of 10,000 wafers per month at the Cheongju M15X fab. As it is a test line, if mass production is approved, full-scale investment will begin. It is expected that equipment will begin to be brought into M15X as early as November.

According to industry reports on the 18th, SK hynix is discussing the schedule for bringing in equipment with partners ahead of the completion of M15X. From November to the end of the year, the first batch of equipment will be brought in, and additional imports will be made after mass production approval.

My take: SK hynix appears cautious for 1b, with its sights set on HBM4. It is already the leading supplier for HBM3 and HBM3E.
