Micron and Intel announced that they will suspend NAND Flash R & D cooperation, the impact of the show in 2020

Microwight News, Micron and Intel announced on January 8 that their NAND Flash partnership will be completed after the completion of the third generation of 3D-NAND Flash (96 layers) development, respectively, to develop the future of NAND Flash technology to meet both brands In response to the news, DRAMeXchange pointed out that as the 96-layer 3D-NAND is not becoming mainstream until 2019, it is necessary to analyze the relationship between Micron and Intel Corporation Sub-resolution of the alliance will not affect the planning and structure of the two sides after 2020.

DRAMeXchange said that the NAND flash purchase agreement between Intel and Micron has not been suspended and will not have a severe impact on the sales and distribution of capacity between the two sides in the short term. From the output end, follow-up Intel will focus on Dalian plant output For server SSDs, while Micron owns two 3D-NAND Flash facilities in Singapore and is strategically positioned to produce DRAMs with flexible strategies and product portfolios.

In addition, Micron and Intel, despite the development of NAND Flash each have their own needs, the two sides will remain in 3D XPoint development and maintain close cooperation, therefore, does not rule out future cooperation in the NAND Flash field there is still the possibility of cooperation. DRAMeXchange think Micron And Intel's future in the independent development of NAND Flash technology, it does not rule out the possibility of seeking cooperation with other manufacturers such as Chinese manufacturers in order to increase its market influence.
