SEOUL, Feb. 9 (Yonhap) -- South Korea's Hynix Semiconductor Inc., the world's second-largest memory chipmaker, said Tuesday that it has developed a 26-nanometer based NAND flash memory chip, six months after its announcement of the 30-nanometer level process.
Hynix will start mass producing the 26-nanometer based 64 gigabyte device in July, the company said in an e-mailed statement. The company developed a 32-nanometer process flash memory chip in August.
"This new product will nearly double our productivity compared to 30-nanometer based products," said Park Seong-wook, vice president at Hynix research center. In the semiconductor industry, applying smaller nano process technology helps cut production costs.
