元器件交易網(wǎng)訊 10月31日消息，據(jù)報(bào)道，臺灣旺宏電子（Macronix）的75nm 16MB 1.8V NOR閃存芯片通過三星電子驗(yàn)證，2014年開始出貨量將增加。

根據(jù)市場觀察家表示，三星一直是華邦電子（Winbond）主要的NOR閃存客戶。此次旺宏進(jìn)入韓國廠商供應(yīng)鏈加劇了兩個(gè)臺灣NOR閃存供應(yīng)商之間的競爭。

觀察家也指出，華邦正為閃存產(chǎn)品尋找挖掘高密度市場。旺宏電子的75nm 64MB 3V NOR閃存芯片已經(jīng)獲得諾基亞的驗(yàn)證。至于NAND閃存，該公司將于2013年第四季度后期開始向潛在客戶提供36NM 4Gb芯片的工程樣品。

公司透露，旺宏第三季度的閃存產(chǎn)品銷售額比上一季度增長10％ ，但同比下降5％，其出貨量比上季度上漲6％，同比增長11％。該產(chǎn)品部分占旺宏電子本季度總收入的54％。

旺宏電子也是一個(gè)掩膜ROM芯片的供應(yīng)商，第三季度該部分的銷售額和單位出貨量則分別同比下降了12％和24％。然而，在前幾個(gè)季度的基礎(chǔ)上，該收入增長了98％，單位出貨量增長達(dá)51％ 。

旺宏電子公布了第三季度的綜合營收為67.1億新臺幣（2.282億美元），比上季度增長28％，但同比下降9％。第三季度毛利率從上季度的4%攀升至18％，但第三季度經(jīng)營利潤率仍為負(fù)值。旺宏電子第三季度的凈虧損為新臺幣9.08億新臺幣（約3090萬美元），公司預(yù)計(jì)第四季度的業(yè)績將與上一季度基本持平。（元器件交易網(wǎng)郭路平 譯）

Macronix 75nm NOR flash chips verified by Samsung

Taiwan-based Macronix International reportedly has received verification for its 75nm 16Mb 1.8V NOR flash chips from Samsung Electronics, with shipments to ramp up starting 2014.

Samsung has been a major NOR flash customer of Winbond Electronics. Macronix' entry into the supply chain of the Korean vendor has intensified the competition between the two Taiwan-based NOR flash suppliers, according to market observers.

The observers also noted that Winbond with its flash products is looking to tap the high-density market segment. Macronix has already secured verification for its 75nm 64Mb 3V NOR flash chips from Nokia, the observers said. As for NAND flash, the company will start shipping engineering samples of its 36nm 4Gb chips to potential customers later in the fourth quarter of 2013, the observers indicated.

Sales of Macronix' flash products registered growth of 10% sequentially but a 5% on-year decrease in the third quarter of 2013, with unit shipments rising 6% on quarter and 11% from a year ago, the company has revealed. The segment accounted for 54% of Macronix' total revenues in the quarter.

Also a supplier of mask ROM chips, Macronix saw sales and unit shipments of the product line decline 12% and 24%, respectively, on year in the third quarter of 2013, the company disclosed. On a sequential basis, however, the segment posted growth of 98% in revenues and 51% in unit shipments.

Macronix reported NT$6.71 billion (US$228.2 million) in consolidated revenues for the third quarter of 2013, up 28% on quarter but down 9% on year. Gross margin climbed to 18% in the third quarter from 4% in the second, but operating margin remained negative during the third quarter.

Macronix stayed in the red with net losses of NT$908 million in the third quarter of 2013.

Macronix expects its fourth-quarter performance to remain flat compared to the previous quarter.
